Octopus - 3 Videos

YouTube via teheruranu. Sent my way via Xavier. Be sure to watch all three videos. The last video is an excellent tutorial or descriptive video of the second video.
"The official demo video of the Octopus Midi Hardware Sequencer" Note there are 3 videos in this set.

MC-909 // Virus // Equipment test: Electro Stylee

YouTube via siedgey (click for more after this one). via Nusonica. This one takes a while to pick up but it does.
"Hi guys,

Well...I finally bought the synth of my dreams. I got the old Access Virus Classic for an amazing price. Hooked it up, wired all my gear through a mixer and my Behringer Tweakalizer, hit a few buttons and this is what came out.

It's not really a tune - more me messing about with a two bar loop, but hey, thought I'd upload it anyways.

Comments welcome. Thanks for watching. :)"

"Just a quick video of me messing about on my Oberheim OB-8. Please excuse the rubbish playing (and noisy keys) but hopefully this will give you an idea of the sounds you can coax out of this beast."

DSI Prophet '08 and Some Facebook Notes

Nice image of the Dave Smith Instruments Prophet '08 via Goran posted on Matrixsynth Facebook where you can find more general synth shots. Unfortunately you do have to log on like MySpace to see them. Not my rules. I haven't been on Facebook much lately so if anyone has been sending me messages or posting stuff I apologize for not being more receptive. I'll try to check the site more often. BTW, the best way to get me to post something of course is to send me an email (contact info is on the bottom right of the site). Only synth specific stuff goes up - in general you have to be able to identify the synth or synths via site or sound.

There is also a pretty cool video featuring a Doepfer modular running through a Plan b Model 12 by Adam Somers posted to the Matrixsynth Facebook group here (log on required again). Does anyone know if you can embed Facebook videos on other sites? I couldn't find the embed code. If so I could start posting some of the better videos I find here.

You might recognize the flickr name from this post. It looks like the zippered pouches have gone from just keys to synths. You know you want one.
