Lemur 2006 Video on Sonic State

Title link takes you there. The Lemur now supports MIDI. The video shows interaction with Ableton Live and Absynth. Impressive. I was thinking the origami might be a cheap alternative, but unless the origami supports a multi-touch inteface, the Lemur kills it for this application. Here's a link to more on the Lemur.

Korg MS-20 Black Devil Edition

Title link takes you to shots pulled from this auction. Keyboardless MS-20 with 8 channel MIDI-CV/Gate interface.

First Music Video Featuring the Little Phatty

Titlle link takes you there. I have no idea how these guys kept a hold of it, but there you go. : )

Pearl Fightman FM-8

Don't know much about this unit other than I believe it is analog. It came up on Ah, with someone asking for more info. If you know more please post in the comments and I'll update this post.

Update via Ross, the person who sent this to the AH list and the owner of one:

"It sounds analog and not quite like anything else analog that I've
heard. Better than a cheesy drum machine but not pristine analog like
a Tr-808. It sounds sort of like very early Kraftwerk type drums
(autobahn or earlier); noisy and minimal."

Moog 1120 Drum Controller

Title link takes you to a couple of shots pulled from this auction. Via John Gellings.

Details from auction (I have no idea if this is correct):

"Rare Moog 1130 drum controller. hook it up to your minimoog & use it as a signal source. think of the synth drum break in 'frankenstein'. made by Moog, built into a Ludwig 8" tom. very cool."
