Roland TR-707 pictures
by bdu on May.02, 2009, under drum machines, media, pictures
A friend of a friend needs a 707 to stand in for his 909 on tour, and having one that I never use, I’m happy to pass it on to someone who will use it. But of course, I must take pictures first!
Full flickr set here.
Boys Will Make Noise
by bdu on Apr.09, 2009, under acquisitions, media, modular, pictures
MakeNoise ModDemod is in the house. No time to play until the weekend, but you get pictures now.
The ModDemod is a dual passive ring modulator, in case you didn’t know…

The last of my pictures are now up at fdiskc. Once again, go here and menu to NAMM Shows->winter->2005-2009->2009.
I’ll continue backfilling the NAMM blog posts here tomorrow. For now, I need some sleep for a change. Enjoy!
Bagpipe Parade

Towards the end of the day on Thursday, I was running around outside in the halls looking to meet up with friends, and was confronted with this horrific sight:
Buchla Balloon
by bdu on Jan.18, 2009, under 2009, NAMM, media, modular, pictures
The Noisebug booth was full of these balloons Buchla and Associates had made for the show.
I’d never thought of the 200e as particularly “epicurean”, but maybe someone else feels differently…
Pigtronix Piggy Head

Pig head on a stick! Nothing good ever comes from that…

except for the Mothership, apparently.
John Bowen Solaris
by bdu on Jan.18, 2009, under 2009, NAMM, media, non-modular synths, pictures
John Bowen had a much more complete version of his Solaris synthesizer, in black and white varieties. This thing is sounding great, and looking nearly done!
Moogseum

The Moog Foundation is planning a museum for all of the archived information they have collected. They say they have the building already picked out and ready to go, so now they’re working on the design. Here’s a picture of the posterboard they had up of the current design.
Elviss

This guy was going around the show dressed as some scary hybrid between KISS and Elvis. His belt buckle said “Elviss”, I suppose that makes sense.
