From Reel to Web - July 29-31 Part 3 - Vintage Moog Modular on Texas TV WFAA

Published on Jul 31, 2019 SMU Jones Film

This one spotted and sent in via John L Rice: "Starts at 4:10. No sound until about 4:40. There is other political and traffic accident coverage before and after the Moog section. Moog content ends about 8:25. Keep in mind that sound is often poor quality and cuts in and out."

If anyone knows who that is in the video, feel free to comment.

Update: “That's Merrill Ellis. He's one of the first Moog customers (2 systems and later add-on's) as well as one of the first to take them out live. Pretty important guy from NTSU in Denton TX.”

Update2:

OP-Z Spark Components

Published on Aug 2, 2019 nedavine

"The OP-Z step components are extremely underatted feature that turn the OP-Z into a sequencing power house.

In this video I focus on the spark components.

Trigger Spark: Control when a step triggers
Component Spark: Control when a step component triggers
Parameter Spark: Control when a parameter lock triggers"

John Chowning Coming to Knobcon 2019

Knobcon is set for September 6-8 in Chicagoland, USA.

"The organizers of Knobcon, the world’s only synthesizer convention, are pleased to announce FM synthesis pioneer Dr John Chowning as their guest of honor.

Following military service in a Navy band and university studies at Wittenberg University, Chowning, aided by Max Mathews of Bell Telephone Laboratories and David Poole of Stanford, set up a computer music program using the computer system of Stanford University's Artificial Intelligence Laboratory in 1964. In 1967 he discovered and developed an algorithm for generating complex sounds using frequency modulation (FM). This breakthrough in the synthesis of timbres allowed a very simple yet elegant way of creating and controlling time-varying spectra. In 1977 Stanford University licensed the FM synthesis patent to Yamaha in Japan, leading to the most successful family of synthesizers in the history of electronic musical instruments.

In addition to his keynote address at the annual banquet, John will be hosting a workshop during the three-day event entitled “Learn FM Synthesis From The Man Who Wrote The Patent”

Knobcon is the world's only synthesizer convention, celebrating its eighth year. With performances, workshops, and vendors, Knobcon is a fully immersive experience. Attendees have access to an incredible playground of equipment and designers of some of today's most innovative synthesizer products.

Held in suburban Chicago, Illinois at the Hyatt Regency Schaumburg, the entire event takes place under one roof. Enthusiasts travel from all over the world to attend this annual event. Easy access by all forms of transportation makes Knobcon the most convenient synthesizer event you'll ever attend!

If you are interested in the electronic arts, this is the place for you. Be a novice or a neophyte, Knobcon is an inclusive and enjoyable experience.
