Moog NAMM Rumors

Now the Moog rumors are running as well. Via this thread on VSE on Moog.

Well Amos hinted earlier at some big news at Moog, so I'll take that last statement to mean a stripped down, cheaper Voyager.

Amos wrote:
not exactly how I would describe "it" (whatever it may be)
but the point is --
OMG
Get ready to lose control of your bodily functions
Truth is not beauty, beauty is not love...
but what we are coming up with is all three [Truth, Beauty, Love -- figuratively speaking of course] wrapped up in one gorgeous package.
OK, I've said too much already
NAMM is coming soon...

DSI MEK Demo via Stefan Trippler

Yes the MEK is an Evolver with keys, so any evolver demo will do, but... We all enjoy Stefan Trippler tunes right? Click here for a new demo. Start with samples of individual patches and then get's really interesting at about 5:01. Enjoy. : )

Open Source Korg Oasys

Synthosium has an intersting post up. Someone actually had the cajones to start installing stuff on his $8k Korg Oasys. Intwesting... If you think about it, for $8k, why shouldn't you be able to use the Oasys as an OpenLabs type system? Click here for the post.

Buchla and other Samples on Buzzclick Music

Peter Grenader of Buzzclick music posted a link on AH to some of his music including an all Buchla piece titled Eclipse. Each of his pieces has a great story behind them. Download a track, put it on and read. Not a bad way to spend some of that leisure time during the holidays...



BTW, make sure to track back to http://www.buzzclick-music.com/ for the rest of his site.

summer of 1978.

Other features in this issue include interviews with Don Preston, and Cameron Jones of Synclavier.

Also read more on Guitar Synthesis, Electronic Music Notation,
Laser Sculptures, and a review of some newfangled polyphonic keyboard
called The Sequential Circuits Prophet! Wow!


Hoppy New Year to Every Bunny!"

Oh, I have a Bunny for you: Sparkle.

SCI Programmer

Moogulator has a post up on the SCI Programmer pictured below. Apparently you can use it to store "patches" on a modular which I guess would mean storing control voltages as you tweak? Interesting. Title link takes you to his post which includes a shot where you can see it hooked up to a modular. If anyone has more info on this piece, feel free to share. BTW, makes sure to check out Moogulator's SCI page for even more oddities from SCI. And as usual, track back to the root of his site for more synth goodness. His site is really coming along in a big, big way.

Three super nice Roland SH-09 shots and a few non synth shots for any camera junkies out there. 10 points if you know who I am thinking of? ; )
