I think the problems started much earlier for #Elektron and were foremost related to general approach to #product #design. When their #Analog series of flagship #synthesizers were first introduced in 2012, a controversial decision was made that these machines would not get an ability to sequence external #MIDI #instruments. That was the moment when alarm bell was ringing for anybody cared to listen. If you handicap your main product out of the gate, how can you expect success on the market?

Thus #Taperil begins, a month wherein my goal is to drag myself out of the deep funk I've fallen into since January. Fire up the #synthesizers, switch on the #guitar amps, get out some obscure instruments I've never played before, dehumidify the microphones (yep), dust off the #tape machines & make what may or may not be generally considered to be #music, but will certainly be sounds made by an actual human being and not fecking #AI. #NoAI #NoAIMusic

My new toy: Back to high-end audio

My AI mini workstation from HP has seen some non-AI workloads this weekend. I installed Capture One for photo editing and a couple of software synthesizers. And realized along the way that while built-in speakers are nice, high-end audio is a lot better! :-) For months, I have been listening to music on devices that are designed for speech: a pair of Jabra headphones and the speakers of my various laptops.

I’ve shared photos of my studio space before, but these were taken with a Viltrox 9mm ultra-wide-angle lens.

You can see it all, except the very rear of the room …

where there four more speakers for the Dolby Atmos system,

and the mighty ROLI Seaboard Grand.

I think I’ve finally managed to fill the available wall space … although I still have my eye on something to put in the center of that neon ring.

Backstage Burrow Ep5-2026: Moog v. Buchla: The Analog Revolution

Hop into the burrow with me, everybunny! Today we’re tracing the wild history of the synthesizer — from room‑sized, paper‑tape‑programmed giants in the 1950s to the voltage‑controlled modular marvels that shaped the sound of the ’70s and ’80s. We’ll meet the brilliant minds behind the Moog and Buchla synths, explore how culture shaped their designs, and see how one groundbreaking album launched synths into the mainstream. Get ready for waveforms, wobblies, filters, and a whole lot of musical magic!

Why is it so hard to find a simple explanation of mathematical "poles" as it pertains to 2-pole and 4-pole low pass filters on synthesizers? All the explanations are either too abstract or too simplified.
