  1. New Toy!!!

    My Big Studio Miniaturization Process is well underway now. I sold 90% of my shit, and new (and much better) stuff has begun arriving. Witness what the FedEx man brought this morning. Got myself a Rosetta 200. How 'bout…

  2. FMOF Last Call...

    Don't forget that today is the last call for this month's FMOF. I'm going to L.A. tomorrow morning, so we're ending FMOF tonight. You have until 8:00 pm Pacific time (GMT -9) to throw a loop. If you're linking, put 'em…

  3. New Samples of the Lil' Phatty up...

    As the title says, there are new samples of the Little Phatty up on the Moog Music site. These go a little more in depth than the original couple. I have to say that, while it sounds pretty much like you think it would…

  4. Fuck me running...

    A Rosetta 200 is in the mail on its way to me, and I literally \ just\ got done refreshing the Fedex tracking page, and wham, I figured out what the new API product is. I mean this product. You don't need to enter…

  5. SSL Duende page now up...

    Here 'tis. The Official Word is that you get 32 channels at 44.1/48, so 16 stereo tracks, if that's what floats your boat. At 96kHz, halve that figure. Plus one buss compressor. Also, the skinny is that the code for the…

  6. 2005 Album Sales...

    We were discussing this a couple months ago, using older numbers. Here are the just-released digits for 2005 from Soundscan for total albums sold. Note that the vast majority of vanity releases from bands, and releases…

  7. Four Measures Of Fury - April

    Thanks for the 20-odd emails I got pointing out that last Saturday was the first Saturday in April. ;-) Here is your loop. It is 120 bpm (and the masses breathed a sigh of relief), and the Minimoog bass is a big fat C…

  8. Hard-Core Gear Porn Friday!!!

    Okay, refresh monkeys. Your fix is here. I'm on a roll with the synth-centric HCGP entries. Whack the picture above for the full-size view of the private studio of a certain Mr. Rich. I have no more information than…

  9. Good Adam A7 News...

    This was just posted on Gearslutz by Bryce from Adam: Minor change... It seems that the demand for the A7 is going to significantly exceed our expectations. This will allow us to build them a bit less expensively than…

  10. Ratshack Reverb v2.0

    Now with a more accurate model of t3h suck! That's right, kids. Ratshack Reverb v2.0 is now available for purchase in the AD Store as a Universal Binary AU/VST for OSX and VST for Windows. This is a from-the-ground-up…

  11. Tube Porn Video...

    A short movie made by Dave Pape about Theo Argiriadis, a British tube effect builder guy. Says Dave: His workshop sublimates eccentric retro gear porn into a higher form, something like gynaecological valve art - and…

  12. A Wild Goose Chase...

    I don't suppose any of my fair readers has an original manual for the Realistic Electronic Reverb, do they? We're doing the manual for our Ratshack Reverb today, and we wanted to use some quotes from the real thing. If…

  13. The Big Sell Off (round three!)

    Okay, we're getting in to the home stretch now. Here's what's up in this one. A little more esoteric... SCI Prophet 2000: Still available. In excellent condition electronically. 7/10 cosmetically. Analog filters and…

  14. Messe = Big Fat Waste Of Time And Money?

    So, between my own native curiousity about things noisy, and my interest in aquiring grist for the AI mill, I am pretty hungry for press releases that look interesting. Is it just me, or was there very little at this…

  15. The Big Sell Off (round two!)

    The Blacet modular, the Univox EC100, and the Neumann PEV are spoken for, so they're off the block. Here's a current list of what I'm unloading, with suggested prices. If you want to make an offer, I'll seriously…
