200e

Hey gang,
A short video from NAMM of Ezra talking about the 251e just went up.

And if you haven't seen it yet, there's a bit about the 272e on Gearwire as well.

What a strange concept....

An FM radio for your modular.

I guess I don't get it. 

You tune in and get sound from a radio station which you then go on to process with the other modules, as if it was an oscillator of sorts....?
How about Rush Limbaugh? John Tesh? Delilah?

Boy, that's serious avant garde stuff. I'm too prosaic and unimaginative to appreciate, I guess......

:-/

I believe you are referring to the 272e ...

I remember as i little kid ... 6 or 7 years old ...
sitting in the dark with my radio very slowly turning the tuning dial
and listening to all the interesting sounds i could find in between all the 
stations
all the beautiful noises ..... squeals .. buzzings ... distortions ... weird 
modulations
like a mini synth ... 
before I knew what a synth was ... 
I can't wait to get this module ...
I hope it can work in this way ...

my two cents
Joe

Exactly the same Joe.

I use to love listening to Shortwave radio more than normal music radio. 
After hearing the Conet Project CD, a few years ago, I realised that 
living in Australia we hard a completely different shortwave experience 
to our European friends. I was listening to distant swirling spaces and 
heavly modified Gamelan music etc.

As a result I, Cray, completed an album due for release on VICMOD 
Records within the next few months called Dedicate Shortwave which is my 
interpretation of childhood shortwave listening all done just on the 
200e :-)

Stay tuned

Ross
