Plan B Model 28 Tap Clock Demo

video upload by jamescigler

"A brief demo of the Plan B Model 28 Programmable Tap Clock and it's use in a couple basic patches."

via Red Martian:
"The music was made with a synsonics drum machine (manually played), a Roland Jupiter-4 and a Yamaha CS-5. The video was shot in the small PNEACEA studio in Seattle, 2000 and makes use of video feedback and features some of the masks that were made for us by SERPENTINE."

TENORI-ON

Title link takes you to the Global website with everything finally up - videos, mp3s, interviews and more.

Sent my way via Robert who had the following to say about it:
"Now I've read through the manual and am impressed. The Tenori-on looks more useful than most of us thought it would be. It's not THE ULTIMATE SEQUENCER, but I don't think anyone expected it to be. It has better sequencer specs than I thought it would and some interesting UI implementations that other sequencers would have a hard time duplicating. I think the demo mp3s they've posted so far don't do justice to the

possibilities of the Tenori-on. The big disappointment is the onboard sounds are just a rompler selection and don't appear editable. But the RM1x is this way, great sequencer with boring sounds. I always thought of it as a sketchpad where I would replace all the sounds with my own once I worked out the song. The Tenori-ON looks the same way.

I can think of a bunch of features I'd like to see on the sequencer, but maybe those will come via a software update.

Is it worth 500 pounds? It's really going to depend on the end user.
Some people already compose in the way the Tenori is laid out and they'll probably jump right on it. Is it worth $500? If Yamaha can sell it for $500 they'll sell DX-7 quantities.

A feature not previously mentioned that may really tip the scales for some is the 'Interior mode' where you can set up your Tenori to be a fancy clock that plays songs. Really. I'm not making that up. That's the feature that says 'I'm Japanese-designed!'"

15 Questions to Morton Subotnick

"Morton Subotnick, to make it short, is an icon of electronic music. Subotnick's "Silver Apples of the Moon" was commissioned by Nonesuch Records in 1967 and represented the first electronic work written with a specific record release in mind. Back then, Subotnick was one of the protagonists of the Buchla Modular Synthesizer and his use of the instrument was a deciding break in the tradition of focussing primarily on tape manipulations - epecially after "Silver Apples of the Moon" turned out be a huge critical and commercial success."

Title link takes you to the interview on tokofi. Peter Grenader of Plan b got a nod.

Kawai K1 ROM Cards

via this auction

Note the shots are pretty bad, so unless you really want to see the others, don't bother. A funny note on the auction is you get the synth "free" with the cards.
