in general, about 8 Analogue Step Sequencers were used for the INSIGHT album tracks all synchronized with MIDI via the Doepfer A190 midi-cv/sync interface and the Doepfer MCV24 interface. The sychronisations were made in various time divisions using the a160/161 Clock Divider and Sequencer modules and the A162 Dual Trigger Delay modules. The analogue Sequencers that were used were: six Doepfer A155;s modules, one AS Integrator RS200 module and one Korg SQ10. and, of course, for controlling the various analogue mono-synths and modulars via CV/Gate, I used three Kenton Pro-Solo midi-cv interfaces and one Kenton Pro-2000 midi-cv interface and one Doepfer MCV24 midi-cv interface. Midi continues controllers were *translated* into control voltages using the Doepfer A191 midi-cv module.
also, for some of the EMS VCS3 sounds, the EMS DK1 keyboard was connected to the VCS3, so that i can obtain pitched sounds in the exact pitch i wanted and also utilise the 4th vco that's onboard the DK1 keyboard as an extra audio and modulation source for even more unconventional VCS3 sounds.

Anyway, i hope you like the music... :)

you can see some of the synth stuff that was used for the creation of that album here: http://audioshots.com/auditorium/viewtopic.php?t=2584

btw, this album is of course available from CDbaby, Tower records, Groove Unlimited (www.groove.nl) among other outlets... and as an mp3 download from i-tunes, yahoo! music and many more download services.
