"Group Art Show of Limited Edition Prints Benefits Bob Moog Foundation, Showcased at Diana Wortham Theatre

The Bob Moog Foundation is happy to announce that SYNTH: A Group Art Show Inspired by Bob Moog, will be back for its third year during Moogfest 2012. The Synth Art Show is a showcase of hand printed, signed, limited-edition, screen prints from some of the top concert poster artists and graphic designers working today. Each artist will contribute their print to be sold at the show in very limited quantities. Curated by artist Justin Helton aka Status Serigraph, the show is a visual tribute to the legacy of Bob Moog. All proceeds from the sales will go to support the Bob Moog Foundation.

SYNTH will be one of many installations that the Bob Moog Foundation is hosting at the Diana Wortham Theatre lobby throughout the weekend."

Roger Linn's Shelved Product Ideas

Pictured:

Top two pics: "LinnDrum Surface, a drumbeat-oriented control surface for use with computer. At right is the same surface built into a Windows-based computer. Note the pressure- and position-sensitive touch sliders that eventually made their way into Tempest. This one was something Dave Smith and I considered on the way to Tempest."


Bottom two: "two drum machine design ideas."

The MetroGnome reminds me of KORG's Monotribe design.  Looking at the top pic of the Tempest with title screen reminds me how I wish all synths had a ridge to rest a tablet device on.

Drawn to the Light (Magellan iPad Synth Solo - Use Headphones or Subwoofer)

"This is a patch made on the Magellan synthesizer for iPad.

Download the patch here: https://docs.google.com/open?id=0B7bHi7ZXec4GM1JEVDUwZXF2c0k

No external effects were used - it was a single patch recorded inside Magellan and then just exported from iTunes. So far I'm really impressed with what this synth is capable of!

Modular jam in old movie mode

Published on Oct 18, 2012 by ISOTROPOSPHERE

"More patching fun with the Doepfer sel. switch, using the raw outputs from the Drum Dokta.

Bleep Labs Nebulaphone, Midi in through Vermona qMI driving two detuned from one another Blue Lantern ZTVCO's.
4MS Atoner, Make Noise Maths and several other modules used.

This was after a four hour module re-arrange session in preparation for the Doepfer A-152 module arrival.

That's right, I posted the arrival / test video first, just to see if y'all are paying attention."
