Damn.
Got lots of great memories of working with Gabi & Saba during their Delkom period. Gabi was always generous with his time. One of titans, a true gent

What's the spec ?
I probably don't use use them, but might have something in my parts box that I'd be happy to pop in the post

I started my MOTM format modular in October 1999 and ordered my first Oakley boards a couple of months later. Somewhere there's a photo of my first Mididac housed in a biscuit tin lid. I'm not sad to see MOTM as a format fall by the wayside in favour of MU - it's just evolution. And as Tony has allu...

I'd just make sure that everything was okay in terms of phase, and maybe try experimenting with mid/side instead of just trying to mix the dry/output a/output b

par example: the test&measurement studio offer a range of extended techniques for sound synthesis and processing, like the EG&G PAR instruments: I can see a Model 175 in there (basically a four step sequencer, looping/one shot EG) - love mine and of course it never gets enough use... https://www.mu...

Here's a neat little interview with Janet Beat - a lesser known contemporary of Delia Derbyshire & Daphne Oram

I was given six months to live over three years ago for a stage 4 (very aggressive) incurable brain tumour - it's never going away (unless my head falls off), but hey ho. There are generally multiple lines of defence, so what worked last time may work again, failing that move to the next line (a dif...

I thought about building one some time ago... I don't think it's the right path for me. Doepfer A-198 seams to be the way to go. Thx for the advices. Yep, the softpot is a different/inferior beast to a proper ribbon, and I have to use a pedal interface (MOTM850 in my case), but it's a fun thing to ...

I made one out of a Softpot about a year ago

thats a great point chroma! I guess I'm looking to record all kinds of sounds - speech, short sounds, ambience. It's pretty important that the recording device is cheap and portable, but I don't really care if it captures the sounds "accurately" as long as it has character so you're looking for lo-...

get one of those cheapy little fm transmitters and record from a similarly cheapy fm radio

This - the world over.

Kudos to you Dave. I was in a similar situation a few years ago except with a company I helped found and became de facto COO of. We were acquired and the new owners just drained the passion from the whole enterprise. So I took that leap... My advice: 1) Make sure you get your sums right 2) Make sure...

I'd say everything has been pretty much exclusively MOTM format modular for the last 15 or so years. I'm not a keyboard player, so my monosynths went first, followed by drum machines. I do still use lab gear but within that modular context

My second favourite band after the cabs

Using old lab gear has a unique vibe to it - you never quite know where you'll end up (or why). But it takes up a fuck of a lot of space

There is another side to this. I agree with you, but if I was producing worthy material that deserves a proper label and I wanted it to be my career I would consider some of these services to rise up above the significant noise. How else would anyone but my small circle of friends know about me. Bu...

However, I think that even the most narcissistic person of today would be able to tell the difference between real praise and buying a number that doesn't mean anything.

I'm in a real cynical mood today

unrecordings : What's not the case? I can't see how your statement contradicts what Fog Door wrote. Sorry, suffering here today - I'll try again - I think I meant to say that while FD (fog door - hope FD is okay, my typing is terrible)) assumes that people trying to buy their way into the game must...

Having no plays/interest doesn't feel great but I can only imagine how bad it must feel to spend £££ on fake likes/plays, while knowing yourself that you have no legit plays. And as member Lisa says you probably still won't get any industry interest anyway. Wow, that must be a feeling of absolute c...

Because Roy Batty meant so much to so many of us - I've put this here, in the artist sub forum - feel free to move mods...

I went to Amsterdam Dance Event University last year and was at this ted talk about releasing music etc. Some A&R people from online labels were talking and it was utterly depressing really. Indeed, they do look at your plays, just to check you are a feasible assett for them to put time/effort in.....

You can buy Soundcloud plays I don't use Soundcloud but I cannot think of a more damning indictment of our somewhat pathetic times than this :waah: It's always gone on since day one. I used to know one or two pretty influential UK pluggers from the 60's (***) and they used fair means or foul to rig...

Even if you've released stuff successfully before through a third party label, there's almost inevitably a point where the whole process gets downgraded to a hobby - in which case BandCamp is a good place to start, and scale things up from there (I'm glad to see Controlled Bleeding still out there b...

Given Gibson's recent restructuring, the cynic in me thinks they just simply didn't need the IP and therefore the cost of defending it if/when Behringer pop up with their clone
