A Friend and bandmate has passed away

Friday, January 29th, 2010

Last night, J. Rivet, keyboard player of MyParasites, past keyboard player in viktim, and founding member of The Harvest, passed away.

J, was a great guy, and talented musician. He was probably one of the nicest people I ever met, and I really feel lucky to have played in bands with him, and to have called him my friend.

He is gone now, he was working on a solo album, which will hopefully see the light of day in the future, and he was going to college, with plans to be a Politician. J was going to change the world, and even though he didn’t get the opportunity to change the world he still changed my life and all of us that were blessed enough to have played in a band with him.

I just needed to take a moment, and make sure everyone knew that the world is going to be a little darker now, because this one candle carried so much light.

Services will be coming up soon, details as they made known to me will be relayed here.

Going to miss you man.

We will be performing songs we have NEVER performed live, all this in support of our upcoming debut CD release for Dark Asylum Music.

Make sure you come to atleast one of these two shows and check out our myspace page at www.myspace.com/viktim and you can get an idea of what we will be playing, and what it will sound like.

These two sets are a crossing over, we will be playing some old songs, and some new songs, its going to be a bit different, and we hope you love it.

This is a live show for today. Unemployment is at an all time high, shit is falling the fuck apart. I am full of hate, and i need to spit it out onto the ground before it eats me alive.

Don’t miss it.

Ensoniq ASR-X Project

Wednesday, April 1st, 2009

I bought an ensoniq ASR-X, it was pretty beat up, sold as is, and looked like a nightmare when it arrived. I had my doubts, but at $58.00 it just couldnt be beat. $18.0 shipping? Fuck yeah.

So the look online was rough, the descrition was ‘as-is’, and it arrived as such.

BUttons missing too.

Booo!

So i sat down, made sure it powered on…. it Did. -good-

So i then starting ripping it apart. took off the top, and you would have thought an animal was living inside it. There was dirt, sand, and lotsa lotsa lotsa hair. So i pulled all the ribbon connectors off, and went to work with some contact cleaner. I cleaned all the contacts, the pots, the board, the memory slots, the pad connections, the screen. Then i went and cleaned the whole outside.

I picke it up and heard a rattling noise, it was one of the two buttons that had popped off. Now, let me rephrase that. I made it sound simple. The entire button and connector to the PCB had popped off.

So i got my soldering iron, some solder, moved a couple lamps over so it was lit up like Wrigley Field, and i slowly, shakely, soldered the 4 legs back to the board.

Put it back together, and that button works now, wooo!

Got some good news too, it has the most recent OS for the ASR-x, which is great because with the black ASR you don’t upgrade via a Disk, you do it by EPROM chips, and i really didnt want to hunt down new chips. It also has the maxed out 32mb of memory, thats the max you can put into the ASR-x.

Something i didn’t know, the ASR-x’s 1/4″ outputs are balanced connections, thats awesome, i totally didnt know that :-)

so whats left?

well im going to sand down the outside, the paint is fucked up, rust is everywhere, so i am going to pain the fucker black and neon green or black and flourescent purple. Havnt decided yet.

What sucks is that this doesnt have the SCSI in it :-(

my old ASR-10 that i retardedly sold to a friend has the SCSI in it. I wish i kept that keyboard. I wish at MINIMUM that i had removed the SCSI and kept that. bah.

anyway, i am thinking about adding a rom card, the asr-x can take one, and i am very intersted in experimenting with the slots on the board. See if i can maybe run a flash card reader in place of the disk drive. that would be dope.

i took alot of pics, i will upload them soon.
