Joe's Modular Synthesizer Video

I previously posted on Joe's Modular Synthesizer site, but either I missed the video or it's been added since I last posted. It's pretty amazing. Title link takes you there.

EAR Performance System

Remember this post? Title link takes you to shots of the EAR Performance System debuted by NIN.

Catgirl Synth

I previously posted on Ken Stone's Catgirl Synth (CGS). I was reading the Analog Renaissance article by Electronic Musician and noticed that CGS was featured along with this shot. Now that would be one cool module to have in your modular. I couldn't find a higher res shot, so if you find one please comment and I'll update the post with it. Title link takes you to the CGS site.

Rockets-Ideomatic (Live)

Features an EDP Wasp. Via Dennis Verschoor (gear, music)
Update via sneakthief in the comments: "one of the "doctors" is playing the EDP Spider sequencer that goes along with the wasp. heheh." Nice, I was wondering what that was.
Update via the comments: "they also play the EH mini synthesizer. Cool stuff, i've always loved The rockets - even when Sal Solo from Classix Nouveaux became the singer" and "...and of course the simmons sds-v drum set :-D"

Analog Renaissance on Electronic Musician Online

Click here for an 861kb pdf of the Analog Renaissance article in Electronic Musician. The article features the Cyndustries ZeroOscillator, pictured.

Via John Loffnick on the Cyndustries mailing list. You might recognize John Loffnick of The Microtonal Synthesis Web Site and The Wavemakers Synthesizer Web Site.

BTW, I love it when magazines put full articles online. Thank you Electronic Musician.

The Appreciation Post

This one in via Roger Lussier of The Appreciation Post.

"I play moog synthesizers for Boston indie-rock superstars The Appreciation Post. We're getting quite a following up and down the east coast.

I play a Moog Source and a Realistic MG-1 and the pure analog sound just can not be beat. Our singer also used a Sonic Six (which he has since sold) to record a cover of rod stewarts "some guys have all the luck" which you can hear on our Purevolume page. Every sound except vocals was made by the sonic six, even the 'drums.' So, check it out, tell me what you think."

I did and I think I like it. : ) BTW, before I get bombarded with MySpace sites, I only put stuff up that has something interesting about a particular synth or synths. In this case there were two things - the shot and a track featuring nothing but a Sonic Six. It's always a cool surprise when I like the music as well. Thanks Roger.

Yamaha CS60 on Synthwire

Looks like Carbon111 got his Yamaha CS60. Title link takes you to the post on Synthwire including more shots. I'm looking forward to the samples.

Arturia's Analog Factory Demo Online

Just saw this one on One Blue Monkey. Title link takes you to the demo download page. The best thing? No dongle required. Thank you Arturia.

My Doepfer A-100 - New Flickr Shot

flickr by Luca Capozzi. Serge VCS in there as well. Note this is not my A-100, it's Luca's, although I am thinking about one... : )

Update via Luca in the comments:
"ehehe i'm glad you like it :) check also my new entries on YouTube here. Whole A-100 test video here."

Excellent. And I almost didn't post this one because I thought I had too many Flickr shots going up. You never know what you might find. Thanks Luca!
