📚✨ Oh joy, another pulse-pounding tale of antiquarian excitement featuring... antennas and, uh, Margaret's letter? 😂 Because nothing screams thrilling adventure like vintage radio gear and forgotten correspondence. Let's all pretend we're not dozing off with this yawn-inducing treasure hunt through dusty pages! 📖😴

Oh, this is a good one from Alex! I just learned the difference between phasing and flanging. I don't know why I'd never bothered to look it up before, to be honest.

If you don't strike it rich with Bitcoin, you could always go back to finding physical coins.

Brilliant, friendly synth event in Ventnor today. Loads of vintage equipment set up for people to play and enjoy. Fingers crossed it turns into a regular meet-up. 🤞 #Synth #VintageSynth #IsleOfWight #VintageGear #RetroSynth #Synthesizer #ElectronicMusic #Electronic #Music #Elka #Roland #Suzuki #Sequential

The #Ensoniq #ESQ1 I have in the #studio right now (a loaner from my regular occasional production partner) was apparently once submerged due to flooding ( a fact my buddy didn't discover until after he bought it LMAO) and yet it still works flawlessly (after some pretty thorough cleaning -- but not so thorough there isn't still fine silt on some of the keys).
They really did use to build stuff different.

My favorite words to hear when I am buying some gear off a guy I met on Craigslist: "I have some other stuff, if you want to look at it?"
Just got a beat up but seemingly fully functional Kawai MM16 MIDI controller for $40 while I was picking up a beat up but functional Quadraverb for $60. More #90s gear!

Right now I have, in my possession, a #Roland #MKS50, a #Kawai #K4r and an #Ensoniq #ESQ1 (all synths, in case you don't know). I've got a #Tascam 414 (4-track cassette multitrack recorder), a #Yamaha #REX50 (effects unit, basically an SPX-90 with added distortion algorithms) and an #Alesis #Quadraverb (more effects). All I need is an SR-16 drum machine and I could make an album like it was 1990 again.

My main #synth for the last 30 years has been this Sequential Circuits Six-trak analogue from 1984.
I don't think they have ever really been loved by many - only one knob to twiddle for a start. It's got midi and 6 voices that can all have different sounds or be layered, and can store 100 programmes, so perfect for me.
I picked it cheap at a car boot sale in the early 90s.

@ambercadabra 1200? I didn't get my first 1200 baud modem (well, CCITT 212; I did have a 202 modem in 8th grade) until high school 🙂
I'm sure there's someone out there who's going to one-up me with a 110 baud modem with an acoustic coupler...
