if Boc was techno.....

[profbarkingmad]

Ha-ha!..know what you mean. I used to take a battery-powered EMS Synthi A to South Park in Oxford  after particularly furious acid trips in time for the dawn chorus - whole new meaning to chatting up thre birds in the park..LOL!

[TommyHolly1]

Reminds me of the old Dr.Who episodes from the 70's...haha AWESOME!

liked the beat that coms in at 4:28

hi! you connect midi into v-synth xt and play the 16 parts of v-synth xt?, great sound! i like it, 5*!

big kiss.

[sidecars]

Yes, The signal from the Monome goes to the computer, which generates the midi out, which goes to the V-synth XT. I must say, making this work into the V-synth is a bit challenging. There is some odd interaction between channels that I don't understand. But.. it works! Thanks.

what am I watching..... ?

[sidecars]

You are seeing a close-up of the instrument you are hearing, the Monome 256. A google of that will show you more.

[jamessanger]

where can you arrange a demo for one for me ?

[sidecars]

Seattle. But I'm not sure what you mean.

[jamessanger]

I'd like to try one out ? ? is it a musical instrument ?,,,,... I have some cool and rare synths...like a gleeman pentaphonic clear. one of only a few in existence. I like synths

[proflolsworthy]

Actually I'm pretty sure the monome is just a neat looking midi control interface, so technically no, it's not an instrument.

You might however be interested in Yamaha's Tenori-on which does have built in sounds and can also work as a midi controller. (Oh and utilizes a matrix of bright lights a bit like like the monome).

wow...could've fooled me. and yea I wish they could do that!

[Macavich69]

oooh multi-colored led's...very nice

[sidecars]

I have to come clean. The colors are done in the video editing! I wish the colors did that in real life. THAT would be cool!
