Brian Comnes sporting a MATRIXSYNTH T at the Oregon Fringe Festival 2016. That's a Doepfer Pocket Dial MIDI controller in front of him. Side note: the pic was taken by none other than Todd Barton. Todd has also been known to sport a MATRIXSYNTH T.
Also according to Brian "I think Ashland with 3 Easels in 22000 people probably has the highest per capita Easel density of any where. The easel performance that night was by Bruce Bayard who has the third Easel in town. I was using Ableton Live to deliver a soundscape to back up my video piece."

Ireland, 10th May 2016 – ScreenForge has today announced its entrance to the music software market with the release of Yeco, its multi-touch controller for Ableton Live that runs on both Windows and Mac. Yeco is a fully featured touch controller for Live including access to Live’s device controls plus an extensive range of MIDI controllers; Drumpads, Keyboards, XY pads, Hex Controller and the MIDI Controls Panel.
Yeco works on any touchscreen and has full ten point multi-touch. If you have a touchscreen laptop or desktop monitor, you don’t need any external controllers or tablets. Everything happens on the same computer as Live, resulting in a more stable experience without the need to worry about servers or wireless networks.
Yeco allows you to have a truly mobile studio using a touchscreen laptop like the Microsoft Surface, without the need to carry controllers with you or connect to a network. You can have the same setup whether you’re in the studio, on the road, or performing live.
Features
The interface has been designed with simplicity and usability in mind. Those familiar with Ableton will recognise Live’s session view instantly. Features include mixers with large faders for precise control & accurate metering, device controls with value feedback from Live and all of Live’s names, colours and playing positions.
Yeco’s MIDI controllers have a range of features that allow you to play expressively and intuitively. The Keyboards features include positional velocity control on each key, channel pressure, macro controls and assignable MIDI controls.
The Drumpads have the same positional velocity control and are slightly taller than they are wide. This allows for expressive, precise playing – especially noticeable when playing rolls and crabbing.
Yeco’s Hex Controller uses an isomorphic keyboard arranged in a harmonic table note layout. This makes it easy to transpose chord shapes or scale patterns.
Yeco features a set of 4 large XY pads for multiple parameter control with easy assign buttons.
The MIDI Control Panel features 56 assignable elements including: 27 sliders, 6 knobs, 9 momentary buttons and 14 toggles.
For a full list of features check out our site or the tutorial videos link below which goes through each and every feature of Yeco in a series of 30sec – 1min videos

"Condition is very good, very few scratches/marks on the surface. All functions tested and are in working order.
-Thoroughly cleaned for resale.
-A few patches have been overwritten by the original owner. Most are in a different order than they appear in the manual. All are very cool sounding! Original owner was a trekkie - one is named "Dr. Spock" and another "Klyng". You can overwrite easily with your own patches also.
-It is both a six voice analog synthesizer and a midi controller. Useful in a contemporary set-up and fun to play with in achieving deep and raw vintage sounds! Seriously, it has some punch to it!
-All keys are functioning and have velocity.
-Second to last key on the right has been replaced. It was like this when I bought it. When I was cleaning the connectors I noticed there was a piece of plastic taped to the underlying structure to make it level with the other keys. I re-taped it securely and thoroughly wrapped the tape around the underlying structure with minimal contact. Should last for a very long time."
"This listing is for a vintage Roland System 100M analogue modular synthesizer. It features 3 x 110, 1 x 140, 1 x 150 and 1 x 191J modules.
The 100M is unique from other modulars in that it has a integrated signal path for CV, Trig and Gate which be used without (or with minimal) patching.
This is a Buy It Now listing, but offers are welcome.
110: VCO (Pulse, Saw, Tri), VCF and VCA. Two have a reversible mod that allow the low output to be used as a SYNC input (see video)
140: Dual EG / LFO
150: Sample/Track and Hold, LFO, Noise Generator
191J: Integrated multiples (40 jacks, 6 cv/gate/trig in/out, keyboard input, expansion output)
The original sides were made from an imitation wood contact sheet on particle board. The wood sides in this auction are made of solid African Bubinga hardwood.
The 191J is for the japanese market and runs off of 100v. Provided is a USA 115v to 100v step down converter. An assortment of 21 1/8" patch cables are included."
"The Notron is a British-designed MIDI step sequencer used by Björk, Howie B etc. Produced in two models, the Mark 1 was available between 1996 and May 1998. The Mark 2 was a slim blue box produced until about 2001. About 100 Mark 1 units were sold and a similar number of Mark 2s. The Notron is no longer produced.
It was designed by and developed by Gerard Campbell and the software was written by Dave Spowage of Concourse Systems (UK). The original model bodywork was designed by Martyn Seiles. It was sold under the company name Latronic.
In 1999 it won a Millennium Award from the Design Council and was exhibited at the Millennium Dome during 2000. For some time the Notron was on display in the London Science Museum.
Only about 150 Notrons were made, and production on them has been discontinued. So, already, it is a collectible instrument and will surely increase in value as time passes...
It does different reset points for each sequence, can output 4 different sequences, It does LFO shapes, weird stuttering things, step length stuff, pitch bend and mod wheel macros, chords on steps, some time-stretching emulation sort of tricks, delays, strums and reversals. Some of the other neat stuff was being able to group changes across multiple steps, and all of it in real time. A very cool machine!"
