Moog Polymoog Coffee Table

via Kenneth Eldhardt:
"Even though I was informed by another forum member that somebody else chopped the legs down on a Polymoog and called it a coffee table, I'm not sure that really makes a legimate, functional, or asthetically pleasing coffee table. So I did a full Polymoog to coffee table conversion. It was a lot more work than I originally wanted to put into it, but it came out great and really makes a nice coffee table. Later it will go up on ebay. I don't have a decent living room setting, so I'll have to take it somewhere to get better pics in a nice living room, but for now it sits finished in my garage and in the initial pictures below."

AKAI S900

via the AKAI S900 Blog:
"I've gone crazy for months before finding a working way and even that suddently stopped working for apparently no reason for nearly one year. Now things are working fine but I bet there are many users out there that simply can't get the damn thing to work!

Since some of you contacted me privately telling me their desperation I decided to help people wanting to upload some samples into the machine. Send me your .WAVS and I'll send you back an image of a floppy with the sounds in it, so you can simply convert it into floppy using Omniflop and load it into the AKAI S900.

Limit for this free offer if of one floppy per person, as MIDI sample dump is SLOOOOOOW!"

This Phantastron was built for a customer from the same components & case parts in the kit. The phantastron has a great 30's all vacuum tube sound like an Ondes Martenot in the highs and a Trautonium in the low range.

Phantastron was recorded direct to camera. No effects used..."
