Utopian Foogering

The interesting thing about having a studio is that you never really know what is going to happen. Like last night...I had a booked session with one of the bands I am currently working with and noone showed up.

This is the kind of thing that makes my head crack sideways but...It gave me 30 minutes extra to mumble around with some of my new pedals and my old digital camera for some more little films.

These films are all based around a handful of pedals. The main sound sourse is the Utopia synth which has rapidly become one of my favorite pedals. This has a lot to do with its unpredictablity, it's slightly sensitive tuning problems and the fact that it sounds kind of horrible a lot of the time which becomes a challenge iof you want to make anything remotely musical with it and nort just " drone " music or Noise stuff which I really don't know what it is but it is apparently very popular amongst young men with modified speak & spells in the U.S

This film was of course recorded at my little studio. It is called Roth Händle and is located in Stockholm in a small quaint scandinvaian country called Sweden. If you are curious about the studio please take a stroll by www.roth-handle.nu for some blogging and general infoness

Nice stuff, I'd love to get a few of these foogers in my studio one day.

[RothHandle]

They are great...look around for used ones...they are probably a bit more reasonably priced...!

hi, i play microkorg, wld u recommend me getting any particular moogerfooger to make some Emmerson Lake and Palmer or Yes sounds? bit of a noob in this subject.

[RothHandle]

From one noob to another...Well...I would definitely go for the lowpass filter....and possibly a distortion pedal or a delay. I have always felt that the micro korg was slightly cold...so you could also experiment with using guitar amplifiers to give it more grit...

You are super welcome...!

The loopstation is agreat tool to try stuff out and demonstrate stuff like this...

The Bass Murf is Frequency Range is lower and therefor effects lowwer frequencies more...I would think that you should get the normal one but if possible...try the bass murf. I tend to use it a lot more...
