when i saw this roland PMA-5 gm/gs compatible PDA-sized synth come up for sale locally, i almost dropped what i was doing to go pick it up

sadly, some research proved that it is not SC-55 compatible as I had hoped (would have made an amazing portable Ultima VIII: Pagan player), but is instead an SC-50 with SC-88 GS patches. I guess games sound funny on it. sadly passed.

First gear domino has fallen... my humble Zoom 1204 FX has sold! Naturally I did this (see attached pic):

Look, it's not like I wasn't gonna put the money back into the studio eventually... and they got me with one of their semi-random sales where they're like, "Hey, you own a couple Arturia products... wanna get V collection for $150."

(The post where I announced I was selling all this gear: ravenation.club/@etherdiver/11)

"Waiting for a Girl Like You" is a 1981 #powerBallad by the British-American #rock band #Foreigner released as the second #single from the album 4 (1981) and was co-written by #LouGramm and #MickJones. The opening motif was written by #IanMcDonald and the distinctive #synthesizer theme was performed by the then-little-known #ThomasDolby.

Wide variety of music types, am developing my skills as a #musicproducer in what little spare time I have.

I happened upon an article about the degradation of electronics. It seems, based upon what I read, that electronics — especially those electronics with electrolytic capacitors on the board, have a finite shelf life, whether you use the device or not.

This news is quite sobering, considering the amount of equipment I’ve had in storage for the last 20 years.

EDIT: Live Now!

Had to take a little break from streaming last week, but we're back! Starting at 8:30 am PST, I'll be streaming #Arturia #Pigments patch programming. Today we'll make some percussion (and percussive noises). I'll post the direct link once I set it up, but here's my acct:

On Sunday evening I will be hosting a #Listening party from my album “Improvisation Pieces” recently launched on #Bandcamp starting at 9pm UTC or GMT.

Please join me to talk about the tracks and how they came into being and my production workflow.

There are 5 pieces in all, each around 9 or 10 minutes long, so just jump in and out whenever you can. It will be great to chat and hear what questions or comments that you may have.

I am very looking forward to tonights "VCC" (Vintage Computing Circle) at the HU #MediaStudies: We will use all their #AnalogComputer machines to transform them into #Analog #Synthesizer|s.

I will give an introductory talk about analog computers, their history, theory, and how to program them.

If you like to attend:

Starting 5pm (open end), Georgenstraße 47, 10117 Berlin, 2nd Floor, Room 2.26 "Signallabor"
