Inside a KORG DW-8000 with Mouse Waste

via Computer Controlled. Note this was originally sent to the Analogue Heaven email list.

"Has anyone here ever dealt with cleaning mouse waste from a PCB in a synth? I got a DW-8000 today, and the inside is just a mess. Mouse waste everywhere! Chewed up wires. What is the preferred method of dealing with this? I'm hoping to salvage this."

Note: the one thing I brought up on the list and someone confirmed is the risk of disease. Be careful!

pNORTNAOMI-The zVSAVP Gate

YouTube via pNORTNAOMI | October 19, 2010

"I started this out experimenting with Twisted Tools outstanding Buffeater and logic's environment and I got carried away. I have since abandoned and dissected this track and I'm using various parts in other projects, So I thought i would post the original. Individual tracks are being fed independently into buffeater and I'm controlling the bus sends via NI's Maschine."

"Another try at uploading this video from last night. I'm hopefully playing a show in early December, so I thought I'd practice performing with the 200e. Just knob tweaks here. After failing all night, this one came out ok.

All hardware in one take, with a little gain and slight compression in Logic to boost levels. It's a pretty quiet patch overall.

My apologies for the previous bad uploads of this video."

Sample and cold (Plogue Bidule + Analogue Solutions Semblance)

YouTube via GruithuisenCityMan | October 18, 2010

"Hello ! My name is Frederic Gerchambeau. I have made this movie. The music has been made in one take with Plogue Bidule (sequencer) and an Analogue Solutions Semblance (sounds). It is based on a sequencer i have made with Plogue Bidule. That sequencer is centered on sample and hold in a very complex way. Enjoy !

Anta Odeli Uta (Plogue Bidule + Analogue Solutions Semblance)

An extra note via Frederic on the sequencer and why I gave this one the Featured label: "I have made with Plogue Bidule a very new kind of sequencer. It's based on sample and hold. But not the chaotic kind of sample and hold that is heard every day. This is very well studied and controlled and it's generating notes. That makes "Sample and cold" is the first track of its kind."
