Apollo 8 -- Third Rock From The Sun

YouTube via Goldenthrush.
"You are sitting at a computer that could have handled the entire United States space program during the 1960s, as well as Russia's, with enough left over to rule the world if you were so inclined.

In fact, according to vintage computer sites, you could have done this with a cheap pocket calculator made today.

Yet the space program was built on such primitive technology, and that in turn pulled along home technology to give us in a small laptop more than they ever thought possible.

This is a brief retrospective of the Apollo 8 mission, from blast off to splash down, you can find the entire 20 minute piece on the Internet Archive, of course.

The music involves Filtered Coffee.

See, for Tedd's birthday, the older boy and I were going to get him a filter called... Filtered Coffee. So we call Analogue Haven. They don't have it, and they're the only place that would have it.

So I ask them to let me know when one comes in, thinking we'll get it for Christmas.

A few days before Christmas... They get it in. Yay! --Except it's right before Christmas!

BUT after Christmas, I email, and yay, they still have it! So we ran down and got it.

Of course, Tedd has to play with his new toy. He finally comes back in grinning and says "It's not timid!!"

Yes, dear, the entire neighborhood is aware of this.

So using a Yamaha (I think!) drum machine, the Hammond S6 with the Filtered Coffee, Moog Voyager filter sample and hold, and the Moog MG1 with an octave divider (I have to put all this down for you equipment junkies), Tedd went retro to the bone.

So, in the style of Telstar, but a lot grungier, we give you Third Rock From The Sun.

(Yes, as a matter of fact, I did re-upload this three times. But it's corrected now!)

Octave The CAT

"This is the best of the 3 different Cat's made. It has the super thick -24 db low pass filter. It has the coolest Sample and hold features. You can S&H osc 1,osc 2, & the filter or any combo of the 3. I really like how the sine waves are on sliders so you don't have to change between them, you can use all of them if you like at the same time. You can even control the the glide with a foot switch. and/or Cv the filter, osc 1 ,lfo. Polyphony - Mono/Duo-phonic Oscillators - 2 VCO's (2 sawtooth, 2 square wave, and 1 triangle) plus 2 sub-oscillators LFO - 1 with sample-and-hold Filter - 1 with sample -and-hold VCA - 1 VCA, 2 EGs- AR and ASDR Keyboard - 37 keys Memory - None Control - CV/Gate Date Produced - 1980-81"

Update via microtonal in the comments:
"There are a few inaccuracies in the description. You can APPLY S&H to VCO1, VCO2 or the VCF. You cannot S&H VCO1, VCO2 or VCF, only Noise or VCO1. Also, there are no sine waves on the Octave CAT.

Note the missing knob caps in the photo. These white knobs are impossible to find today."
