How To Modify Concertmate MG-1 Synthesizer by Moog - 1/4" Input & Output

"In this video I remove the RCA input and output jacks on the Realistic Concertmate MG-1 by Moog Music and replace them with 1/4" mono ins and outs.

Since this synthesizer is an older, entirely analogue synthesizer, it is relatively easy to make these modifications. All you need is a soldering iron, some solder, maybe a solder remover, some wire, a resistor or two, and just a little bit of time."

INFLATABLE YAMAHA QY70!

via this auction

another synth pillow

"have you ever been relaxing at the beach, looking out at the pounding surf and thought to yourself..."i wish i could combine my love of relaxing water sports with my love of esoteric electronic instruments!"

well if you have, GET READY! because here is what you've been waiting for!! while your friends play ancient crap games like "marco polo" and swim laps like SUCKERS you will be chillin' in the corner by yourself pretending to program "phat beats" on your own INFLATABLE DRUM MACHINE! It looks like it has all the great features of a Yamaha QY70, but it is full of air...which means...ummm...that it floats!

can an akai MPC do that? not without voiding the hell out of its warranty buddy!

just think of the possibilities! would a REAL hipster play dodge ball with one of those boring old red balls that every one else has? NO WAY! he would play "Dodge Sequencer"! would a real new waver parade around town with an ordinary inflatable balloon? NO WAY! he would fill this bitch up with helium and be the toast of the town. would the ultimate synth nerd rest his head on an ordinary pillow filled with obsolete objects like FEATHERS?? NO WAY DUDE! he would rest his head on an inflatable QY70 (or possibly a stuffed Morton Subotnik) and dream sweet dreams of hanging out with Wendy Carlos.

now what you see is what you get, i have no inflatable midi cables and i'm pretty sure they don't exist, so don't call me when you can't get the inflatable QY70 to sync up to your inflatable TR808. IT AINT GONNA HAPPEN. ANYWAY you'd need a inflatable SYNC24 to inflatable MIDI converter box and the only people who made that was Buchla to go with his inflatable touch panels.

anyway, somebody's GOT to have a use for this. I'M LOOKIN AT YOU FREEZEPOP!" see this vid

MPC The Kit Part 1

YouTube via danceofthedruids.

Funny how the pads for the cymbols look like tiny cymbols.

"MPC The Kit ... made in the UK and distributed in the US by MXR. Rare Ebay find but unfortunately some major issues. My first video for Youtube ... (I appologize for the Sony cam focus)."

MPC The Kit Part 2

"MPC The Kit made in the UK and distributed by MXR in the US. Part 1 explored more of the hi-hat patterns. Part 2 looks at the direct out capabilities. (Part 1, by the way, I meant volume control ... not tone control.)"

MPC The Kit Part 3

"More video on the problems with these drum machines - false triggering of the snare, intermittent output jacks, loose pads."
