"I have been swapping CDs with Don Hassler. I send him improvisations on my Serge/ Eurorack modular and he has sent me his Buchla 200e improvisations....today i decided to play both recordings at the same time and this is what you will hear



it suffers from 128k mp3 but its fun if you like improv electronics as much as i do

Roland JX-8P + PG-800 Analog Synthesizer by RetroSound

YouTube via retrosound72

"vintage synth demo by RetroSound

'the demo shows the real time possibilities of the Roland JX-8P with the optional programmer PG-800'

The programmer PG-800 makes the JX-8P to the perfect classic analog synthesizer!

'demo of various Oscillator, VCF and ADSR-envelope settings, X Modulation, Sync, Chorus and more'

'Roland JX-8P triggered by the MFB Step64 step sequencer and sync with the Roland TR-707 drum machine'

This video demo is not a musical statement, only demonstration of the sound possibilities of the instrument."

Interview: Scott Jaeger aka The Harvestman by Bryan Erickson.

"Let me start by saying I love my polivoks filter and my malgorithm bit crusher. The Harvestman makes really unique analog and digital modules for the doepfer eurorack modular format. I could not live with out either of these, In fact when I was freaking out over the unstable tracking on my oscillators, I was going to sell my modular system, But I kept going, what would I do with out my custom faceplated Malgorithm and the brutal resonance of the Polivoks filter? Die I think. The Harvestman gave me the real reason to keep my modular, so I could make mean evil sounds, and skin peeling resonant acid sounds(Not to mention he is a totally cool guy to talk to, and yeah, I think he will get his guitar pedals out before Gun’s and Roses gets their new LP out). LOL. I really appreciate that Scott took the time to answer my silly questions."
