Note the blue buttons on this one. See this post for how they typically turn grey over time. This one isn't without issues though. Per the seller:

"Up for sale is ROLAND Juno-106 the 'classic' analog synthesizer.
Probably one of the best polyphonic analog synths available, sounds great and easy to play.

I ran the unit in test mode, and it seems like voice chips number 2 and 3 is not working properly and would probably need replacing. Other thing I noticed is that SQUARE doesn't seem to go off even when you press it. Even though the LED light goes on and off, the SQUARE sound still seems to be there. So I'm not sure if the PWM slider is working too."

Note there was a bit of controversy on the original Blue Lantern ZTVCO posted here. I haven't heard of an update since.

"Here's a demo of the new reverb features in version 2.0 of 'Uilleann Classic' and 'Uilleann-B Classic' for the iPad.

Recording is straight from the output jack of the iPad, no external effects, this is what you hear in the headphones.

This version of 'Uilleann Classic', 'Uilleann-B Classic', as well as reverb feature updates to the vertical oriented chanter apps: 'Uilleann' 'Uilleann-B', and 'Bagpipes Royale', will be available as free updates to existing owners around July 1, 2012. Reverb features require iOS 5.0 or later."

Heracles Eats A Milky Way

"Moon Modular 554 Octal Clock Divider and the Moon 553 Midi To Clock modules. Steinberg's Cubase 6.5 is sending midi clock to the 553. The reset control and 1/96th pulse out to the Suit & Tie Guy Time Buffer is used along with a 1/16th pulse out to the 554 divider. From there various gate and trigger timings throughout the modular synth.

The clock divider is a temperamental beast but does offer some awesome control when in the mood. A delicate flower with a strong aromatic force."

MATRIXSYNTH-T at Cove Palisades State Park in Central Oregon

Thank you Brian!

Anyone note the difference between the Ts?

Don't read the following if you want to guess.

Aside from one being long sleeve and one being short, if you look closely you will see that the print is different. The bottom T is from Cafe Press when I first tried making Ts. The color and font size weren't quite to my liking so I switched to Gorilla Screen Printing which got them perfect. I believe Brian was the first person to ever order a MATRIXSYNTH T-Shirt. I'm pretty sure what's in the picture is actually the third and last try from Cafe Press before giving up with them. The first had small print and the green was off, the second was larger and the green was a bit aqua. The third, pictured, had more of a Full Sail green. The final with the correct green on top is from Gorilla.

"Just for fun. No time for anything lengthy or serious, but I liked this patch. Moon 554 being clocked by a Modcan 53B and then clocking a Moon 568 and COTK C961S and combined with a Synthesizers.com Q961."

Note JohnLRice will be performing at the Tacoma Noise Rodeo in Washington State this Thursday, June 29 with his eurorack modular.

Electronic Music Display at the Phoenix Musical Instrument Museum


via noti: "This weekend, I had a chance to check out the Musical Instrument Museum, which is just outside of Phoenix, AZ. If you're in the area and have a passion for music, I *highly* recommend checking it out! One of my favorite stops was at the Electronic Music display. Personally, I feel that a modular synthesizer is needed to accurately convey the history of the synthesizer, but I'm not about to donate my 22-space synthesizers.com system :)

If anybody reading the post is generous (read: crazy) enough to part with an old modular synth, they *do* take donations :)
