John Bowen Synth Design

Cool,
I priced the shipping at 460 USD privately, At 60lbs. using UPS from Seigberg to Vegas.
I will recalculate and pray for 300 USD.... :!:

Jimmy, it was my understanding the Solaris units for the States were to be shipped to John's location, and then we would pay the shipping from there ...

Actually there was a lot of noise (saturday morning) with a very loud Moog show close to us. We used a clip-on mic and a direct plug insert in the Solaris audio output. The downside of this is we are in mono (one track for John, one track for the Solaris 'cause both are worth listening to :lol ...

synthwalker thanks so much for posting this video, it was well worth the wait.
For what ever reason, it seemed like the perfect time of day, allowing John to be heard without a lot of extraneous noise around him.

Yes, the language difference seemed a bit awkward at first, but I thought you recovered well, and afterall, once you started playing the Solaris, it no longer mattered.
Nice to hear some different presets. The richness, raw energy, and endless modulation possibilites, will, I believe, blow many of ...

Thank you for making a video, and for your comments regarding the organic sound of Solaris. After visiting the site, and spending quite a bit of time searching for the video, I realized after re-reading your post it has yet to be uploaded.
I'm sure I speak for many here, we are anxiously waiting to ...

John thanks for the quick reply since I realize you are quite busy.
Also, thanks for responding to the price question, perhaps other's had the same question, and this will help them as well.

Great news about the CF card and the production of the white models, as you can tell, we are all quite ...

So happy for you John to finally be able to use the word "production" while showcasing the Solaris at Musikmesse, especially after all the previous shows were "stil in development".

I'm a bit confused as to pricing, you mentioned 3600 euros in the video, which by my calculation converts to $5000 ...

Sweeeeeet!
Enjoyed this very much. Thank you very much Howard.

You are an inspiration, thank you for sharing your story with us.

That's wonderful news John, thanks for the extra icing on the cake.

BTW, I just noticed you could even get a SEM again?

Where have you been? They're even turning up on ebay already.

As mister spock would say..."fascinating", these are by far the most detailed videos we've seen up to date.
It is amazing to see the amount of detail and features that are falling into place so quickly, watching a dream become reality after all the setbacks is wonderful.

Regarding the lit mod ...

I wonder if it would be asking too much if I can have the Solaris between my wife and I when we go to bed the first night it arrives.

This video is the best so far John. It's nice to see the excitement and enthusiasm you are expressing as you demonstrate Solaris. It's like a big weight has been lifted off your shoulders.
Love the Obie patch and the ribbon is killer. It's one of the things I love about my Andromeda, especially the ...

I've been performing live with my band Haiku Chi and the sound of Solaris will take our sound to another level!
oh great....now I have the song "music sex" going over and over in my head. :shock:
Love the poster for the lounge, it reminds me of a video Oingo Boingo did from the movie Danny's ...
