Shawn, it's Aaron from Martyr Complex (and etherclinic and Allison Death Toll). Lived in Cleveland for a few years, been out in Seattle for the past year. You might remember me from NEODIG and some of the other synth-related groups in Clevo. Love the setup you have going on. I've streamlined mine, got rid of a bunch of rack gear I wasn't using, retired two synths, and gave my vocalist some of the stuff I wasn't using anymore so he can work on new material when we're not together. But AnniX (my AN1x) is still my number one synth. I expect it to be for a long time. And to hear some of the newer stuff we've been doing with it, check out http://www.mp3.de/martyrcomplex So how's NEO treating you these days? Aaron http://www.deeplycreepy.com/

Hi Aaron, just got the mp3's and they sound real cool! Can you tell us a word or two about where you used AnniX on them? I find it really cool to hear what others are doing with their synths. I specially like "TV Fuhrer" and the distorted bassline at the beggining. Daniel Martyr Complex wrote:

I spent the last year totally revamping the Martyr Complex sound and so far it's paying off. We're getting clubplay in Berlin, Prague, Amsterdam, and London now, and radio play in Berlin and Prague. Hopefully we can parlay that into European distribution. > Can you tell us a word or two about where you used AnniX on them? On 'Consumption', pretty much all the synth sounds are from AnniX. This one is really guitar heavy, so we didn't need to use more than like 5 tracks from AnniX. Pretty much all of the sounds we use on the synth are ones that I've tweaked out over the past few years. If I recall, the bass was originally modified from the UberTomte sound about two years ago, and we ran it through a Behringer Composer Pro XL to thicken it up, and a Lexicon MPX100 to give it a bit more thump. String sound was one of the default factory string patches recorded direct and then modified out the yin-yang in Sound Forge. 'TV Fuhrer' was one that almost never got finished. Had it sequenced out for like 2 years but never found the right sound for it. Spent a few weeks tweaking out some sounds on they synth and finally came up with the bassy raver synth at the beginning. Funny thing is, when we uploaded it to the German site, it put a lot of distortion in it. The original wav and mp3 tracks are totally clean, but I like it distorted so I never changed it. The bass is actually from my Novation K-station. The high-pitched synth on the chorus bits was an accident - my son was playing with the synth before we recorded and he had the Mod wheel turned all the way up. Heard it and loved it, so we kept it. > I find it really cool to hear what others are doing with their > synths. I bought this synth right after it came out, and at one point I was literally the only person I knew who owned one. I'm thrilled that such a versatile synth has finally gotten the recognition it has always deserved. I still get in drunken arguments with people that the synth kicks major ass, even if it isn't red with wooden hardware ;) Aaron http://www.mp3.de/martyrcomplex

Lived there from July 2000 until August 2003 when we moved to Seattle. We were only in Cleveland long enough for Maeve to get her degree in biochemistry/genetics, then we moved to the west coast where all the prime genetic research jobs are. Ah, Cleveland. The only city I've lived in where you can say "Hey, we should play a gig this weekend," pick up the phone, and within 15 minutes you have a gig booked hehe.... Aaron http://www.mp3.de/martyrcomplex
