Roland TB-303 Service Docs

In via Fiercefish. Title link takes you to a folder hosting the individual JPGs and a zip of them. Thanks FF!

The Mushroom

You might of heard of the magic mushrooms printed inside the SCI Pro One. Well here's a shot of it. Pretty cool. Brandon Daniel put up a link to his Flickr set in the comments section of my last post on the Pro One. Thanks Brandon!

New DSI Evolver Videos

Axiom added two more videos to the thread. Title link takes you to my original post. I'm putting up this new post in case you missed it. These are great videos. If you ever wanted to spend a good 30 minutes or so trying out an evolver this is about as close as it gets, without of course, the real deal.

Update: Might as well make it easier... Here are the three links:

Bank 2 Parade. XviD AVI (30.7Mb)
Sequences
Some drones

Note: These are via this thread on electro-music.com.

Sealed's New Prophet VS Page

Sealed's put up a new SCI Prophet VS page with samples, info and links. More content will be coming.

Atari Synthcart

Interesting. Neve saw one of these before. According to AtariAge, "The Synthcart is a rather unique title for the 2600 that allows you to play music using a pair of keyboard controllers. Each keyboard controller controls one of the two oscillators in the Atari 2600." Title link takes you to the results of an AtariAge beat contest held for the Atari Synthcart with samples.

Mattel Optigan Site

Another nice site from Mattias. Interesting piece of gear. I've never seen or heard one before. It has a very distinct, groovy and at times moody character to it, for lack of a better description. More info, shots and video well worth checking out after the hop.



According to the site, the Mattel Optigan was used by:
"Optigannally yours, Blur, Tom Waits, Steve Hackett, Steve Fisk, Freddie Wadling, Celestine, AK-momo, Nanook of the North, Pineforest Crunch, Mitchell Froom, Elvis Costello, Aimee Mann, Rufus Wainright, Neil Finn, Jon Brion, The Clash, Sparklehorse." It has a beautiful sound to it.

Mellotron Site

Nice Mellotron site with images, samples, and video. In via Mattias on AH.

Robert Rich & Modular

Nice shot of modular synth musician Rober Rich, sent to me from Michael Weeks. Title link takes you to a bigger shot. Check out the Metasonix Butt Probe in the shot. Thanks Michael!

Pro One - New Flickr Shot

Hopefully this is the last shot I feel compelled to grab from the set. Check out the shiny wood ends on this Pro One. Make sure to click through the title link for more synth shots.

Update: That ain't a reflection. That's dust. Man, the horror... Absolute sacrilege.

Red Synton Syrinx - New Flickr Shot

One of my most coveted synths. I once had the opportunity to grab a blue one for $2200 US. Like an idiot I didn't. One of these days...
