Admin: New Template Coming - Adding a 3rd Column
Update: OK, we are back to two. That was easy. I'm not a big fan of change myself when it comes to websites. Just wanted to see what it was like with the labels on the right. New poll below. Leave the right nav on the right or move it over to the left.
Update: I just flipped the columns so the main blog in the center with the main column on the left and the labels on the right. Let me know if this is better or worse in the comments. The votes were 19 for two columns and 3 for three. If you voted and changed your mind on your vote mention in the comments. Also see if this grows on you.
----- OLD POST -----
Just wanted to let you know that I am going to try three columns on the site instead of two. If you see any funkiness, this is why. Please bear with me. The overall look and feel will remain the same.
Almost done. Off to go cook dinner for the family. Let me know what you think. I put the labels on the far right. I'll be renaming them so each one only takes a single line.
OK, made a poll out of this. You decide. Note the site is set to three with the right being relatively thin. It will remain that way with three. I need to crop some of the labels so each one will be a single line.

Waldorf Wave Demo
Title link takes you to a demo of the Waldorf Wave on Audio-Workshop.de. The following is what Till Kopper had to say on the demo via the Waldorf User Group, posted here with permission:
"This is the WAVE demo that was released in november 1994 in the german KEYBOARDS magazine as a starter for the 3 issue long special about the big WAVE. And the WAVE on the front cover of this magazine and the one heard here are now owned by a long time Waldorf list member. The name of this track is "Ultimate WAVE".
The recording was done by the german Peter Gorges (BTW: a very friendly person). Waldorf also released a WAVE demo track on the demo CD named "Planet WAVE" in 1995 (?). This track there is named "Planet WAVE" and also features a synthetic voices of the Macintosh computers. Is it a rather funny track because of the lyrics. And full of nice WAVE sounds.
On the track "Like a WAVE" also featured on this CD you can hear Axel Hartmann (Waldorf special designer then and stil designer for Waldorf and some other well known synth companies) sing !!! And it is not bad. Again WAVE sounds. If you listen to this track, you might think this could be an unreleased track of the "Top-Gun" or other US movies to be used at the end credits. It is so "uplifting" in the sound and harmonies.
If only the artist of these track and Waldorf would agree on releasing these tracks on the Waldorf pages on day ...
keep on turning these knobs

Yamaha SK20
Images via this auction."Its a combination of FM based organ, fully analog polysynth and string machine.. The organ section is without a doubt the best hammond sound you can get for a low price and it has many other charms too. The synth section is 7voice polyphonic, with dual detunable VCOs, and has a lovely warm juicy tone. The resonant filter has a good gritty and squelchy sound, and a beautiful ring to it. The ensemble and tremolo effects are superb too.. The string section is nothing to write home about but in small doses adds some nice character to the overall mix.
Made famous by Sigur Ros. When you get to know the sound of this synth you will hear it all over Sigur Ros recordings. Read what they have to say about it here.
