    MPN Gear Chat: Mr. Boddicker's Attic

    It was an awesome afternoon - propelled me into working on Synthplex even harder. Jean-Michel confirmed Tuesday as this years recipient of The Synthplex Golden Ear Award. Worked with him on Patrick Jouvet"s records in the Late 70"s early 80"s and then with his dad who was so proud of him. In fact i often thought that"s why i got Maurice"s gig, because i worked with his son. Can you imagine how off the hook Maurice Jarre"s music realized by Jean-Michel Jarre would be?

    Well, besides re-watching the fun that was had showing David Bryce through my historical hysteria, today David brings over surround mix dvd"s of Sgt Pepper"s & Abbey Road to check out the Sol7Post theatrical system. The most fun i"ve had in years! Listening w David is a real treat. His ear for detail, musical insight and pure joy of listening to and reverence for the music are wonderful to experience. Great music and great company. Thanks for sharing the afternoon David. And thanks for introducing me to your forum friends. Spent about an hour looking for Rubber Soul SACD for the next session. Anybody have one?

    Moe, the bungees are indeed to help keep things in place. Larger gear storage structures are tied/bolted to posts and beams and each other. The house was strapped upper story to lower story and side to side on all ten corners plus all interior corners. All joists are on hangers AND nailed. Grade beams and footings go down seven feet. 36 engineered beams throughout the entire house. Many times two bolted together. The interior studio wall system is floated on machine rubber (even the red caps on the sill plate are grommeted w asc isolators) and iso hangers so it never touches the exterior. The iso room is a double walled room surrounded by double walled rooms. Large speakers/JBL Screen Array 3way behind the theater screen are secured with ratcheted tie down straps. In the coming big earthquake the racks are probably going to roll. The percussion tchotchkes may be on the floor. In 1994 my C7F moved five feet across the living room. But that was Northridge"s double whammy bouncing off the Sherman Oaks side of the Sta Monica Mtns granite. Encino was not hit nearly as bad.

    Bryce, you're making me squirm with Vintage Overload here. :crazy: The funny thing is, my first real awareness of Michael was from his titanic synth bits with Randy Newman. Yes, I had "The Magic Egg" Soundpage and embraced "Buckaroo Bonzai," but those wild, wailing synth stabs on "Its Money That I Love" were arresting. I've heard tales of the odd layering that sometimes went on with classic songs and that sounds like one example. It was a great boost to my interest in synths. Very fine work overall, Michael. May I come and use a tiny computer vac on all of your gear? I'll wear a surgical mask and I promise not to sing any Aerosmith stuff while I do it, swear to Moog.

     

    David, permission to come aboard. Pretty clean though so it"ll be easy work. And i love Aerosmith. And singing.
