It's the simplicity, the immediacy, and Moog sound that I love about the Moog Mother series. I don't know why but they just all sound and feel so good to me

Will you still like them when they are made in Mexico/China? Thanks to you know who? I may pick up a grandmother in defiance!

As long as the quality doesn't decline then yes of course. If that Pumpkin manages to ruin Moog, I'm going to be even more disappointed in our neighbours in the south

How'd the gig go behndy??

I am putting the finishing touches on my setup currently. I've got an MMG on its way from Canada, it'll be replacing a 6hp blank and my Great Destroyer in my mostly-Make Noise case which should really mix things up there. It's always beenn filter-less unless I hook it up to the Three Sisters in my skiff. I'm also replacing the Pressure Points/Brains combo and the empty 4hp in said skiff with a Doboz TSNM. Surprised I haven't seen y'all talking about this yet? Maybe you have and I just didn't recognize the name yet. It looks like a smarter version of Pressure Points with more steps, better sequencing options (albeit only one channel), quantization, arpeggiatior, and a variable pressure output. It'll be my first SMD build, hopefully it goes smoothly. A friend who repairs synths & has helped me do SMD work on my laptop's motherboard will be guiding me, so I think I'm in good hands.

solo tunes:
completed works || loosey goosey releases
associated acts:
Raab Zamboni (fake jazz/real noise//sax, modular synth, editing, misc) || Field Guide (my best friends//sax on 2 tracks)

I make t-shirts, patches, koozies, buttons, CDs, sometimes tapes, and eventually i'll start working on pedals again. DM me for pricing!

it went well! i feel like i did about 90 percent of the stuff i wanted to do, without notes. i still feel uncomfortable going past 10 minutes, so if i do a longer set somewhere or start playing out at actual places i think i want to have 2 "song" structure things ready to go and one noise section?

the TSNM looks dope as butts, i just have had a PP and TetraPad and didna click with them at all. might be more ready for an interactive module like that now though? want to play with the Swarm first, see if i'm there yet.

keep us updated on how you diiiiiiiig iiiiiiiit.

It's been awhile since I recorded something, but I was really enjoying this patch while I was working on some repairs earlier:

lol. durp. just saw this.

yeah, that part was one of the things i couldn't get to that i wanted to do. kept the drums more simple because the rest of my NoiseEng loots came in and i made a fun drums patch with the BIA and Ataramix.

haven't got around to swapping face plates (and i can NOT figure out how to get the knobs that click off. i have put a SHIT ton of pressure and i'm afraid i'll hurt the knob/board. might send them in for them to swap them if they're amenable to that.). but here's where i'm at right now with NE loots -

yesssss. that space is for the second Just Friends. then COMPLETE.

..... until i get enticed into grabbing a Ansible and Wobbly Three Round Spinny Thing.

i like the Clep Diaz a lot, but might take it and the Manis out. while both awesome, they're sorta duplicates. every time i think i'm bored of the BIA i run it as a spastic bass drum. and love REAFFIRMED.

also. yeah. fuck you. i'm ordering one. i actually LIKE that it's less outs than the Tetra and PP. more size for focus on one/two applications.

this is my last attempt at a touchy control thing for euro though.

THANKS FOR THE SEDUCTIONS.
