Subject: tangerine dream 1975 sound effects CD/tape set.

From: jeffc@...
Date: 2005-11-22

while searching through lists of tangerine dream bootlegs, i came across:

http://www.rutka.de/td/mellotron_cd.html

anyone have a copy of this CD?
[will swap - contact me off-list if you want to...]

neat concept in that some sounds repeat to allow a continuous sound.
were any other tape sets contructed like this?
[other than, obviously, the repeated notes on the 8-voice choir set?]

did duncan end up with this rack/tape set?

just curious...

speaking of duncan, i think it's been a while since we heard from him?
[i hope that's because RMI is busy recording and playing shows.]

[fresh from finishing repairs on M400 1189 [i think?].
some idiot using our studio tried to tap into the signal directly
in the control panel by cutting the wires from the headblock and
tapping the signal from there. needless to say, the next person
to use the tron had some difficulties.
said idiot is banned from our studio permanently.
it's all fixed now, and a fresh neyboard adjustment has the M400
sounding, according to our staff engineer, better than ever.
