You Can Trip On My Synthesiser
Written 28 April 2010, 03:34 by Dara
I was recently at an electronic music exhibition. It featured a vast array of various devices and equipment, from all the big names, and even a few workshops and performances throughout the day. I had no idea what most of the very technical gear did, but I got to play a theremin, so I was happy! Possibly not as interesting as Webby’s travel blogs to anyone but myself, but, if you like synthesisers, then read on, my friend!
Or, look on, rather…

A Fake Dog once said ...
What are you doing? You look ridiculous!
Looks a bit too hip for me (by which i mean i’m not hip enough to be found there, before anyone gets confused). Nice set up though.

Yes, it was a bit overly-hip. Lots of tech-heads there. Had to look like you knew what you were talking about! I did my best, but I mainly didn’t have a clue! Especially with any of the technical gadgets and sound stuff. I was there for the more retro stuff, like the Minimoog and the theremin. Got to play around with them a bit, which was cool! The Voyager (one in the last picture) costs nearly 3000 euro!

ANGRY COMMENT!

Lots of pictures. Did they create a moog mood with sounds?

There wasn’t too much of a mood, everyone was just testing different sythesisers at the same time. It got a bit loud at times! I gave a go on the Minomoog, though. I didn’t create a mood, but I made some sounds that I liked!
And thanks for the angry comment, Nick!

I see a theremin! Were you lucky enough to have a go on that?
— Gearóid · Apr 29, 02:10 AM · #
Oh, yes! I did Leon proud!

The Voyager, that is a chunky piece of kit. Pretending to know what you’re talking about… Nice myahawk lifters on that last synth.
