YouTube via pNORTNAOMI | August 12, 2010

"A short ambient type track mostly created with Sugar-bytes Consequence.Audio 1 is a sample I created earlier with Reaktors kaleidon ensemble and the Bass track was created with Motu BPM. I just picked up consequence the other day, I was sceptical as to how useful it would be for me, but in the short time that i've owned it I have created a suite of presets that i'm using in larger tracks that i'm working on."

Korg Poly-800 Synthesizer with many mods

via this auction

"The first mods that were performed were the famous "Moog slayer" mod, which brings the cutoff and resonance pots out for manual use, with a knob added for each. NO MORE MENU DIVING! The filter mod was also done, so you also have a switchable 24/12db filter. I then began to experiment and added a FM amount knob, a chorus modulation knob, a noise control, and also a chorus distortion knob. Audio in was my last project, as was servicing the joystick and getting that working up to par... BE WARNED! The Moog Slayer mod CAN kill your speakers if the resonance patch data exceeds a value of 10-11. This is documented in the mod's DIY site..."
