Lightsabers

Title link takes you to some shots of the Korg MS2000 sent my way by David Tegerdine. All those knobs below look like a mini Jedi fight to me (yeah, I'm a dweeb). Thanks David!

Amdek RMK100 Nebula

Amdek Rhythm Machine on the bay. I have no affiliate with the sale, just haven't seen one of these before.



According to Fiercefish on AH
"I have one and would describe it as similar to a DR-55 in operation but between an 808 and 606 in sound, the bass drum in particular is excellent and can be adjusted via an internal trimpot for extended Boooooooooooooooooooooooooooooom's, the snare is very 606 sounding but with a bit more bite and the hats are simply superb very sophisticated sounding. Mine has mods for trigger ins, trig outs, sync in, sync out, accent out and more planned, it integrates with my Blacet modular very well."

AIR on DVDBORN

Title link takes you there. Some amazing jam sessions to see.

Retro on Retro

Title link takes you to a post on the Future Retro Revolution on Retro Thing, alluding to the similarity in design to a pizza. The Pizza Box. Hmm... now why didn't I think of that...

Essential Retro Update

Looks like Retro Thing's James Gahame now has his Essential Retro book available via Amazon for a mere $19.95 US. James is a fellow synth addict and has dedicated an entire chapter to synths in the book. Very cool. Title link takes you there. See my previous post for more.

ElectroPlankton Released

Wow, it seems forever ago since I posted on the ElectroPlankton. Well according to Create Digital Music, the game will finally be available in the US. Hmm... Might be time to finally pick up that Nintendo DS.

Two Latronic Notron Sites

Title link takes you to the TecnoMage Latronic Notron Site. Note this is the same host for LIFE. Just like the way that sounds. ; ) The Latronic Notron is a rare and somewhat exotic step sequencer. You can find an overview of the Notron on SOS.



The second site worth checking out is the synthservices page, which has manuals for download and upgrade information if you were lucky enough to score one of these before they disappeared.
