Dr. Patrick Gleeson

via Dr. Patrick Gleeson on MySpace:
"In 1968, jazz legend Herbie Hancock left Miles Davis' band (after 5 years) to pursue his solo career. Hancock's concept quickly moved deeper into electronic/jazz fusion and was perfected with the addition to his band of Dr. Patrick Gleeson. Dr. Gleeson performed on Moog and Arp synthesizers, old-school analog modular types, which were capable of creating a myriad of sounds that had never really been heard in a jazz/improv context. These sounds, as represented on the albums "Crossings" and "Sextant", from 1971/72, were brimming with abstract imagery both alien and organic. Although Hancock & Miles Davis both were reportedly influenced by avant garde composer, Karlheinz Stockhausen, it was Patrick Gleeson who truly brought the sonic world of Stockhausen to jazz music and created new definitions for the word "fusion"..."

Elka Synthex - Full uncut version


YouTube via Sharpblue. via Mr. Array
"Paul Wiffen demonstrates a 1984 Elka Synthex. Most famously used on Rendezvous as the Laserharp sound by Jean Michel Jarre. Paul also originally programmed the original presets. Also used by Geoff Downes and Stevie Wonder - a beautiful synth sorely missed." EDP Wasp and Oxford Synthesizer Company OSCar covered as well.

Rare Jen String Machine SM-2007


via Jóhann

"There are three voices, AR env and a highpass filter. The buttons under the controls are labeled "Auto Sustain", "Ensemble", "Solo" and "Organ". I'm not sure what the "Auto Sustain" does but the other three are chorus presets. There is very little info on this synth on the internet."

Out of 26,277 posts to date, this is the first and only post on the Jen String Machine SM-1007.
