What the Future Sounded Like
Via Ross: "Adelaide Australia will show a world premier short film about thehistory of the mighty EMS VCS3 in March 2007."
Title link takes you there.
Synopsis:
"Post-war Britain was a period of intense scientific and industrial experimentation where art participated in, and reflected, wider social change. Out of this context came Electronic Music Studios (EMS), a radical group of avant-garde electronic musicians who composed a futuristic soundscape for the New Britain. Comprising of pioneering electronic musicians Tristram Cary (famed for his work on Dr Who) and Peter Zinovieff, EMS was one of the world's most advanced computer-music facilities. Its great legacy is the VCS3, Britain’s first synthesizer and rival of the American Moog. The VCS3 was a uniquely British invention, which changed the sounds of popular musicians including Brian Eno, Hawkwind and Pink Floyd. Almost thirty years on, the VCS3 is still used by electronic artists like Aphex Twin and Chicken Lips. Local filmmakers Matthew Bate and Claire Harris uncover a lost chapter in music history, emphasising a group of composers who used technology to re-think the boundaries of music and sound.

Plan B Touch Keyboard Coming This Year
Via Peter Grenader on the Plan B list:
"The Model 21 is slated to have a complementry touch keyboard sometime after it's release. There will only be one type produced - geared toward 16 keys, so it's best suited for the Venti.
The thoughplate will be a single rack width high unit which will come in two flavors - with or without rack ears. On it will be 16 touchplates, an internal connection to the Venti's VC direction input, a duplicate external direction input so one does not lose that functionality, pressure out, linear voltage out (sixteen equal divisions of ground to 8 volts - so a 1/2 volt increment per key) and gate out. If there's rtoom, this is wherethe veertical sequencing will also be housed.
OK< so what ever happened to symmetrry?
If you happen to use two rows of rack mounted EUro and don't want the MIUlton touchkeys wo send one rack and inch anf three quarters wack form the other, simultanious to it's release will be a one rack unit high multiple gang - all the mults you could ever dream of. By using both, then your adcecent cabinets will; linw up as they should.
when is this all going to happen?
this year.
We've got five modules to release in short time: The M's 16, 25, 26, 27 and Miltons. Once that occurs, the touchplates are next in the development pipe, along with the release and completion of the M18 and M23 ASR.
Sorry for the delay on these things. Only two guys here, orders to fill, disrupting daily group Starbucks runs to make (my fault), not to mention Tim's periodic defibulation requirements due to his Monster and Rockstart cold beverage usage.
...Just kidding about Tim. That's not fair. (He usually doesn't require the pads).

Thanks to ross healy for reminding me to put this up.
