"Synth based upon Gene Stopps' ASM-1. Still work in progress and quite noise video unfortunatly."
The Optigan Archives Vol. 1 Sample DVD-R!
YouTube via peahix
"This video features a series of very simple demos of sounds from the Optigan Archives Vol. 1 Sample DVD-R, compared with their related sounds from the Optigan/Orchestron/Talentmaker sample CD. (Please see http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aeUeME... for an infomercial for that CD.)
This is an exclusive set of loops and keyboard samples culled from the original Optigan/Orchestron studio master reels.
While the Optigan itself always sounded very lo-fi due to the limitations of its optical-soundtrack technology, the original master tapes retain their hi-fi sound quality (albeit in mono).
The Optigan master reels are a vast archive of early 1970s era musical building blocks, covering a wide range of popular styles from the period. Ultimately, only a small portion of this material ever made it onto production Optigan discs. For this initial collection of samples, I'm focusing on that small portion and related out-takes. Future volumes in this series will comprise entirely unfamiliar material- out-takes which never saw the light of day on any Optigan disc.

Replicas [cover] by Failed Muso
YouTube via FailedMuso
"A fairly simple and short cover of "Replicas" by Tubeway Army/Gary Numan. Based more on his live version than the album track. Everything programmed on Reason by me with the lead line, also from Reason, played live on my Akai MPK49 (you have no idea how many takes it took, mainly because I am shit at playing live !)
Enjoy.
Of course, all copyright belongs to Mr Numan and Beggars Banquet and whoever else. I am simply demonstrating my [lack of] skills."
Tiptop Audio Distributes Through Schneider's Buero
via Tiptop Audio:
"It has been a while, but we have some exciting news! We officially have distribution in Germany through Schneider's Buero! As you already know we have one of the absolutely best distributors here in the states, the amazing Analogue Haven but we really felt that we were leaving our European counterparts out of the loop!
This has been a very exciting process for us and we are proud to have finally secured overseas distribution, but to top that off, it is with one of the best and most well-respected distributors in Germany! What more could we ask for?"
