"This was built by Graham Hinton back in the mid 70's ! Its the precursor to his current PinMix module and is a 59 input by 24 output... The pin matrix itself a completely individual module and can be patched up into the modular like any other module."

c64 games sid music compilation

Uploaded on May 12, 2011 einokeino303

"I compiled this music for a CD about a year ago so I could blast my friends with it during our summer gathering at my friends lakeside cabin. I now decided to share it. Most of this music has already been uploaded to YT in separate videos by various users. This compilation mostly focuses on later era c64 game music and doesn't try to be my favorite song list. It's a collection of few tunes I was listening at the time.

I thought it would be fun not to write down where the music was taken from so everyone has a chance to guess. If people seem interested I'll add the name of composer and the track at the bottom of this description after each correct guess. For now I'll just leave the track names blank. I was planning to give a thumb up for each correct guess, but it looks like that can't be done in YT.

All tracks were recorded from Sidplay and not from a real c64.

Moog Little Phatty Stage II and MFB Synth II improvisation

Published on Aug 16, 2014 MusicInclusive

"Improvisation / demonstration using the Little Phatty Stage II and the MFB Synth II - the only two sound sources in this little jam. The LPSII patch - SpringStretch - is part of a complete set for the LPSII currently under production for eventual release for purchase (details will be on the musicinclusive web site hopefully shortly)

There is a little reverb added on the LPSII but nothing else. The MFB Synth II has some phaser, chorus and reverb added, but the sweep is part of the patch programmed on the synth.

(The MFB Synth II is being played via a Fantom X8 keyboard - which you can see supporting it)."

Testing The Cocoquantus The Most Insane Synthesizer In The World!

Published on Aug 16, 2014 mylungpuppy

"Testing The Cocoquantus The Most Insane Synthesizer In The World!

I went down to Baltimore, MD for two days to hang with my pal Jason Willett of Megaphone Records Label and the owner of True Vine Record Shop. We had a blast listening to music and talking about future projects.

While I was at True Vine, I tested out the Cocoquantus a Synthesizer/Sound Processor; the thing is unbelievable. I could spend hours, in fact did, running LPs through it and playing it all back via the stores speaker system. Not many record shops around would let you do that and chase away customers. But this is Baltimore and I think sales went up while I was having fun on the Cocoquantus."
