I hate to seem overenthusiastic but as far as I can tell it is the greatest analogue envelope detector ever made (actually a change detector so technically in the same category as Ken Stone’s Slope Detector only specifically focussed on audio transients). It is very musical and a few times we noted ...

Weirdly enough I got to work in my school in Berlin last week and Aiden’s Hordijk system just happened to be sitting right there on the floor; some kind of Russian Mafia connection I believe? I might have misunderstood...

bit fizzy pic, but look at the middle bottom panel

I don't care two figs about the product but I'd sure like to massacre their copy writer

Thanks guys. I appreciate it. In answer to Polyroy, sonically and interface-wise the Buchla 200 at EMS is absolutely one of the greatest electronic instruments I have ever had the pleasure to work with and I hope to visit it again before too long. But my future probably lies more with the Hordijk an...

Much appreciated Mr Preece! I am in Norway right now. It is punishingly expensive.

The second track of my new album is all Buchla 200, recorded on a residency at EMS Stockholm. I think I might have invented jazz.

Good afternoon. Allow me to alert you that Volume 2 of my Bastard Science series is now released. The loooong first and last tracks are more or less entirely made on the Hordijk. The middle one was made with some cheap American thing :) [bandcamp width=350 height=470 album=2014996037 size=large bgco...

I am interested in that too, I guess you could request a version with 1/4" jacks? Sadly, importing stuff from the US to germany is too much of a pain in the ass for me these days! That looks really interesting, seems there may be enough space to drill it out and swap the 1/8 for 1/4 jacks. A cool li...

I thought you were quiet. I hope you are alright!

That one is 100% Serge yes. Although not always raw, there are bits of pitch shifting here and there and quite a bit of compiling in the DAW

thanks chaps, much appreciated!

from my new album, Bastard Science

I am not sure if its showing up here properly, but its track 6

I finally finished the first volume of my four album set, Bastard Science. Although this is intended as a composition project than a synth demo, I will tell you that the Hordijk is fairly prominently feautured on four of the tracks, and is the only intrument on one piece. I wonder if you can guess w...

Anyone found an elegant plan for the standalone mounting of a STS Creature powered by a PS2A?

Hi all

just popping my nose in! Good to see you are still rocking the system

I just wanted to remind you of the many hours of Rob’s videos hosted at Novars Vimeo site

https://vimeo.com/novars/videos/page:5/sort:date

For my friend’s sake I was really hoping for some good news by now. Fearing the worst. Of course he feels awful about it. And he is such a nice, kind and decent man. I am supposed to be mixing a Synthi duet album we recorded together last year but I am finding that rather hard to do while this is un...

It will only work if you use a chainsaw

I am finally beginning to think more compositionally with the Hordijk. Here is something in progress, a stereo electronic music composition I am working on. I take no responsibilty for mono listeners - it really is intended for stereo

nice tip! thanks

"Is there such a thing as a feedback module? Anyone?"

a mixer

I had gigs to play so I have had to put the Hordijk away for a few weeks. Bit sad about that.

Not that my Synthi is depressing, but I thought I'd share

Glad it is waiting for me anyway.

some very good looking fellows in that last one

beautiful shirt too: they don't make 'em like that anymore

Thaks guys. Rob should surely write a book one day. I never met anyone who knows more about synthesis. These videos just scratch the surface of the system. I hope we can do a volume 2 sometime.


In the meantime. Let's keep him in business at least!
