Electronic Music Take 1

short but sweet.

PolyMoog

Another from our friend adiblasi. This is pretty funny.

Update: A couple more from adiblasi. This guy is actually pretty funny.

Happy Birthday Emily

Moog - Buchla Piano Bar

This is awesome. I don't want to spoil it for you, so just be sure to watch him play it. : ) Via frederic.

Museum of Techno and the XIOS

Looks like Novation teamed up with the Museum of Techno to promote the new XIOSYNTH. Title link takes you to XIOSYNTH.COM where you will find a couple of videos and this preset jukebox below. Yes you can play the jukebox embedded below. Use the up and down arrows to select a patch and then click the play/pause button. BTW, for more wacky videos from the Museum of Techno, check out YouTube.

Oberheim DPX-1 OS V2.2

Via Chris Strellis on AH:

"In the AH archives there has been a few requests for the latest/last OS for Oberheim's DPX-1 sample player. Well having just acquired one which fortunately has the last OS V2.2, I've read the EPROMs and I'm making the binary files available.

Analogue content? Well there are 8 SSM 2045 VCF/VCA ICs in there - same a Emu Emax - (and 5 SSM2300 to boot).

Right - now to add Cut-off and Resonance pots to it :)

Cheers

Chris

casperelectronics

I just dicovered this blog via alex in the comments of this post. Title link takes you to casperelectronics.

Update: Be sure to check out the casperelectronics photo album. Ack, I see some real synths in there. Hopefully they aren't circuit bent.

Update: The synth in the picture is a Casio SK-1 with a break out box similar to this one. You can see a better shot of it with caption here.


Also it looks like I featured a YouTube video by casperelectronics back on April 14. Here it is embedded:

The Speak & Math

We all know about the Speak & Spell. Check out the Speak & Math. Title link takes you to a post on casperelectronics. Thanks goes to alex in the comments of this post.

This one obviously circuit bent.

Analog Synthesizers on YouTube

You might recognize this one from this previous post. When I put it up, Marc Doty was the name on the video. Now it's AutomaticGainsay. I thought it was kind of interesting considering he also put up the videos on the Minimoog and the Roland SH1000 below.

Update: I just found out this actual unit is up for auction here. Shots saved here for posterity. Also, there appears to be a second one for auction here. As always, be careful on the bay.

2006 MTV Movie Awards - Gnarls Barkley on YouTube

Boba Fett on the Hammond B3, and a Jedi on the Wurli and synth. Anyone know what synth that is? I'm guessing it's the Korg MicroPreset/M500. There's also what looks like a Korg MS2000 behind Chewy. And of course, Chewy steals the show on drums. BTW, my almost three year old daughter is on a huge Chewy kick at the moment. She's like, "what's he dooooing?!" Hopefully she will continue to appreciate synths.

SKnote

Remember the REALTHING analog VST hybrid synth? Title link takes you to SKnote, the makers of the REALTHING. You'll find a number of synth related software and hardware including, Grainz (a granular soft synth), Voices (a formant soft synth), Traks (a time stretching VSTi), Tolcbocs (a VSTi vocoder), hardware ribbon, breath, shaker, xyz plane controller (pictured), and much more. If you know more about their products please feel free to comment.

Chrome Waldorf Microwave

1 of 2 ever made according to the anonymous sender of this shot. The knobs and buttons are metal, not plastic.

"it's one of two and it is chromium-plated, not silver. bcoz it is like a mirror, it is hard to take a picture of it. the "red-knob" is made of aluminium (also the other knobs-caps are metal and not plastic)."

Note the limited green Microwave under it. Image takes you to a slightly bigger shot and the title link takes you to the full size.

On The Inside

31 shots of the inside of various synths including the following. Check out the message inside the Sequential Drumtraks. Too cool.

The Pile

Now, that's one mess I'd be a we bit excited to run into. I want that one octave thing in the left, center. Anyone know what that is? The one the pink thing's eyelashes are pointing to. Title link takes you to the post on Sendling.
