Joey Gonzalez Hey so my friend hayden mentioned to me that you guys had done some mods to your korg MS20s... is there any way you could tell me how you did these mods? What I'm mainly looking to do to mine is create outputs for the oscillators, a PWM input, and oscillator sync if possible. Thanks!

Hi Joey - I can't tell you exactly what I did. Truth is I just opened it up out of curiosity and saw all this potential for hacking. It was pre-Internet so there was no guidance but it wasn't hard to figure out. Just trial error and care not to blow it up :-))) You can patch out the individual oscillators before they get to the submixer. The MS-20 ... See Morebecomes a wild beast once you can create crazy feedback loops with the oscillators. I googled a site that goes even further. I think everything you might need is there... check it out:

Chesko Belgium is patiently waiting for you guys to come back again !! And it's true, here in Belgium there's a complete newwave revival, and it all happened more or less by coincidence. I had my own Newwave pub from 1985-1989, and decided this year, after 20 years, to re-open the place. At other places across our country the...re are several festivals (Gothic Festival / Sinners Day / Bimfest).... Reunions of bands such as Aroma Di Amore / Poesie Noire (planned for next year) / Struggler / Bauhaus /.... The international political/economical situation is somehow similar as it was in the beginning of the eighties... At the other hand.. many of our heroes have already passed away far too soon... Fad Gadget / Snowy Red / Rozz Williams / Adrian Borland / .... so please whenever the drive & energy is back to do so.. just do it ! :-)

See More

I must say i was a HUGE fan of Executive Slacks, Matt was an instrument himself. I am now a fan of Void Vision as well, my favorite Philly band these days. Old school meet new school.
