VST is a Technology and Trademark by Steinberg

Wikipedia:
Virtual Studio Technology and its acronym VST refer to an interface standard for connecting audio synthesizer and effect plugins to audio editors and hard-disk recording systems. VST and similar technologies allow the replacement of traditional recording studio hardware with software counterparts. VST plug-ins are software modules that can take the form of real-time instruments or effects. Thousands of plugins exist, making VST the most widespread audio plugin architecture"

Wavemakers Site Update - Dr. Terry Kincaid

via John Loffink

"Announcing a very exciting update for the Wavemakers web site. For the first time ever, photos of Dr. Terry Kincaid with his Wavemakers instruments in the 1970s, including an early prototype."

You can find the pics and history on the rare Wavemakers synthesizer on the Wavemakers history page.

"Terry Kincaid has been described as a unique individual and a genius by people who knew him well. Though his degrees were in music, he taught himself electronics well enough to make synthesizers that were competitive with contemporaries such as Moog and Arp. Terry even taught himself German so he could converse with German customers. In his later years he built computers from scratch. What Terry may have lacked was marketing and business sense, selling his synthesizers for little more than they cost in parts, and with little margin to pay for his labors."

Be sure to see the rest of the Wavemakers site as well if you haven't already. It's a fascinating bit of synth history.

Introducing The Missing Link Wireless OSC/MIDI Translator

"The Missing Link OSC/MIDI Translator is a standalone hardware device which contains its own WiFi radio, and translates specially-coded OSC messages sent from your mobile device or computer into standard MIDI messages to control synthesizers, drum machines, mixers, digital audio workstations, or anything which responds to MIDI commands. It does this with low latency, high flexibility and configurability, and without the need for a computer anywhere in the control chain. Multiple wireless OSC devices may connect simultaneously to The Missing Link, making collaboration easy.

The Missing Link presents a breakthrough in MIDI technology by leveraging the power and easy configurability of mobile OSC apps already available for a variety of platforms, to control MIDI devices without the complication of WiFi or software translators, while at the same time freeing your device from cabling. It is truly the first and only device of its kind.

Pre-order sales are now being taken for the first production run of 100 units. Units are already being built, and will be shipping soon. The price is $150, available directly from http://www.wifimidi.com.

"The main idea is to symplify the design a maximum with keeping the visual identity of the synth. I will try to give a flow of one day per synth/other gears that makes sounds, during this month or more."

ARP Synthesizer Collection: Odyssey, Omni, & Sequencer

via this auction
via the seller:
"The service performed on these units was done as follows: All switches, jacks, etc., were all cleaned and tested. All electrolytic and tantalum capacitors have been replaced with high quality components on all three units. All of the sliders were replaced on the Odyssey with upgraded parts from Synthrestore.uk. There were about 10 sliders that were open circuit so I replaced them all. The Omni had the early design problematic CMOS chips replaced with modern chips. These were located in the phaser and the bass key circuits. The 4072 Filter Modules in the Odyssey and Omni were upgraded for extended frequency. All power supplies were calibrated. All internal calibration adjustments were tested and adjusted where needed."
