Kaoss Mod Demo 1

"Vibrato, LFO Filter, Delay, Reverb, Reverse Delay, Synth, Synth"
Thomas Dolby 1986 Interview on EM
click here for the interview. There is plenty of synth talk of course.
"I chose to use the largest part of the space for the control room, in order to accommodate my video equipment (a small Sony ¼-inch editing system, Fairlight CVI, and a large screen Barco projector over the mixing board) along with a large battery of electronic percussion (Emu SP12, Linn 9000, and assorted Simmons and PPG modules) and my new Fairlight Series III and Emulator II. I've never sold a keyboard, even my first two — a Micromoog and a Roland JP4 with which I recorded everything in 'She Blinded Me With Science.'"
I wonder if that is still the case.

"Demo of the Roland XP-80. These sounds do not represent the true power of the XP-80"
Two More Modular Noodles via Appliancide
Click here for the link to them. Spot the cat.
"They are single pass recordings with all of the same limitations as the previous two tracks. They are called "how rude" and "falling up the stairs". Falling up the stairs is my favorite so far of the modular recordings that I've done.I also put up a couple of catsynth pictures there. I moved the other two modular tracks to soundclick but if anyone wants to hear them, they can listen to them directly from my blog at http://appliancide.blogspot.com. There you will find links to all of my modular noodles as well as a bunch of my old music, which is mostly soft-synth and sample based.

Korg Maxi-Korg K3 (800DV) Vintage Synthesizer 1975
images via this auction.
"This is a unique vintage 1975 Korg Maxi-Korg synthesizer - serial number 0594! This synth is also known as the Korg 800DV and Univox K3 but was sold in the US under the name Maxi-Korg K3. The power of the Maxi-Korg lay in the way it could create and play sounds. In essence, it was two Korg 700S synths in a single box, so you could treat it as two distinct synths, creating two different sounds, and then playing them independently. Some other mid-'70s synths allowed you to play two notes, but these used the same patch parameters for both. Only the Maxi-Korg could produce two sounds that you could play as a composite, or as two independent synths. Yet this was only half the story, because the 800DV allowed you to allocate the voices in a huge variety of ways. This made it possible to program more realistic, more expressive, or more off-the-wall sounds than was possible on other monosynths. The Maxi-Korg was, and remains, one of the most impressive, flexible and articulate synths ever built."
