ribbon controller for the Voyager

Post by ouijasaucer » Thu Jan 17, 2008 10:35 am

Here's a clip of me playing the Voyager with a Ribbon controller I made.

I also posted a clip of me playing some Moogerfoogers with the ribbon controller in the MF forum.

Interesting. How about some details on how you made the RC?

there was someone on the forum who was going to build these and sell them - was it you? if so how did your sales go and any intent of making more?

I've built about a dozen in three different models. I've sold two in the last week of the present model and another one is up for auction here. http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?Vi ... CA:US:1123

Let me know if you have any questions.

You know, one of the grossest things I even heard came from my friend who happend to be an MOOG tech and I think HE learned it from David Sancious (Bruce's original keyboard player). He said that the best way to keep your ribbon lubercated was with nose grease. Yep. Nose grease. And a good reason for using it is because most people have an ample supply.

Eww.
