A small listing of happy customers:
  Restoring ARP's ARP
 
 
 
  Alan R Pearlman sent in his 2600 for restoration recently and I thought I would brag about it by posting a picture of it sitting on one of the benches.
Here is me and my girlfriend visiting with Alan on a recent visit to Boston. Alan is still active, designing analog circuits for use in the telecommunications industry. And no, he does not want to sell his 2600.
 
 
   
UArts Moog Modular Restoration      
   
We restored a very old Moog Modular for the University of the Arts in Philadelphia. The completion of the restoration coincided with a lecture given by the late Dr. Robert Moog at the university. Dr. Moog discussed his engineers perspective on music, artificial music vs. live performance, and some great stories about Raymond Scott and Eric Saday. At the luncheon, Bob informed us that this machine (in a different configuration) was originally the fourth synthesizer he had built and it was used by Andrew Rudin, while at the Philadelphia Musical Academy, to create some astonishing recordings. Dr. Moog received an Honorary Doctorate in Music in May of 2003 from UArts.
 
Phil Cirocco of CMS explaining to Bob Moog the restoration and upgrades on #4. Particularly about the new power supply I had just installed. Most of the modules in this re-configured machine were hand wired by the master himself. Dr. Moog is not a CMS customer. I just wanted to show off the restoration.
         
 
Here is a CMS/Arptronics customer: Tom Porett, director of electronic media at UArts (on the right). He just had his ARP 2600 refurbished and upgraded here at CMS/Arptronics. Here he is, talking to Dr. Moog and Dr. Chittum at the UArts luncheon. Tom runs his 2600 via midi converter fed by the latest Mac hotrod.
