would anyone go to this? same instrument basically, synthesizers are like an advanced piano in every way, a piano with a PC inside!! think of everything you could do compared to the piano while people have supper etc

Been thinking's about starting this, but with modular synths. Could have a house modular that's making random generated stuff using motion Sensors, randomisers and quantise/tuning bits, have guest rack unit installations, drone/modular gigs in the weekend s

Loads of modular types would love it, uks riddled with em, recon they would drink shit loads

There's even clubs like the Welsh modular alliance, who get together and plug so their stuff together, it's like a modern equivalent of a biker gang or a cricket team

Of course you could get a maker to make you some bespoke units, have a YouTube channel, push that look mum no computer thing

Best thing about having a modular lift music generator instead of a spotify?

NO PRS BABY

That won't stop ham-fisted "have a go heroes" at playing them you know. I'm credited on two records with "synthesizers" despite not knowing the first thing about them (behind 'they look like little pianos!')

Cretins like me are ten a penny.

I will set up the piano to play a field recording of people eating in a restaurant when I hold down middle C.

Then one note up, exactly the same field recording but a semitone higher and correspondingly faster.  And so on to the highest end of the keyboard, where it will be noticeably faster and higher in pitch than where it started, but not if I climb up the scale sufficiently gradually.


You guessed it:  I will be manipulating the diners into rushing their food and squeaking like idiot mice over the course of the evening

Yeah, in the end everyone in the room dies of asphyxiation because everyone keeps walking right in but no fucker walks out. Disaster.

oh it's lots of them walking in?  I assumed it was just one person caught in an irresolvable loop where they were always walking in but never actually getting into the space they were walking to


your scenario doesn't sound so bad

This would seem to contradict us both, though:




I suspect the truth lies somewhere in between.

What about dance floors but it's only them massive floor pianos that lights up?

Hi is that the synthesiser shop? I'm looking for the most graphic equalisers you've got.
