How to organise your synths at home...

Posted by Daniel Paulo on

Many thanks to Robert Lane who has sent me this image.  He has clearly done his due diligence and correctly worked out the necessary apportionment of living space in one's domicile.   His diagram is below and should be followed closely to achieve the proper spatial relationship in an average home. Consider it as a kind of 'feng shui'.

Christmas and New Year Closing Dates

Posted by Daniel Paulo on

Just a quick word to say that we will be closed from the 19th December 2020 and will reopen on the 4th January 2021.  Any orders placed before we close will be sent out though we can't guarantee Christmas delivery. We'd also like to say that it's been a pleasure dealing with musicians and synthy folk from all over the world.  Music is clearly good for the soul and this is so obviously the case from the interactions we've had with such nice people. 2021 is coming, and things are looking up, Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to...

We've noticed recently some visitors to our site have searched for 'Nord', 'Elektron', and 'MPC' and have found no results.  We have yet to make a cover for those manufacturers' products, and probably a few others.  However one enquiry to us, through our 'contact us' page is all it takes to get a price for a cover for just about any keyboard and many other gadgets.  And, even though it will be bespoke, the prices will be comparable to what we are already making.  Give us a go!

The Hydrasynth has arrived!

Posted by Daniel Paulo on

My first synth since last October's Moog Matriarch; the ASM Hydrasynth!    It was top of my wish list for a longtime and at last I have decided to buy the desktop version.  My impressions of it so far are very positive, great interface and build quality.  Sound very thin and digital, but that's to be expected, and with a little work lovely warm sounds come out of it. Of course we make a cover for this synth and its nice to see cover and synth together 'in the flesh'. https://annstweed.com/collections/synthesizer-dust-covers/products/asm-hydrasynth-synthesizer-dust-cover-desktop-version
