Happy New Year from Roger Linn-- 

Here are a few items of possible interest to LinnStrument owners or enthusiasts. It's been a busy December for me, so this one's pretty short.

If there's anything you'd like to see in future newsletters, please let me know.

Video: Connor Golden

Connor Golden is a talented LinnStrument player whom you may recall from a video performance he made during a visit to my former home office in Berkeley in 2019:

Connor recently sent me a video of him improvising on LinnStrument, inspired after installing one of the "Speedbumpy" alternate playing surfaces on his LinnStrument. I like Connor's sensitive touch and dynamics, and how they enhance his solo expression:

If you're interested in getting a Speedbumpy, you can order one from Chris Guichet's www.soundwork.shop for either LinnStrument model, in either translucent or black (as shown in the video), and you can install it yourself. Chris uses my same vendor for Speedbumpy, so the sensitivity and surface feel are identical to the stock LinnStrument playing surface.

Next Zoom Call

The next First-Tuesday-Of-The-Month-LinnStrument-Zoom-Call is Tuesday January 6th at 10 am California time. All are welcome-- LinnStrument owners and those interested in LinnStrument. I'm happy to answer questions from potential buyers or newbies, and interesting discussions often ensue between owners about tips, techniques, specific synths, or editing the source code.

To get the Zoom meeting link, click here or click "Monthly Zoom call with Roger" from the LinnStrument Support page. I hope you can join the meeting, if not this one then on any future first Tuesday of the month at 10 am California time.

Please Spread the Word

As a tiny company with limited resources, it can be challenging to find ways to tell people about the merits of LinnStrument. If you've found LinnStrument to be helpful in your musical process, I'd appreciate it if you could let others know about it, either in online posts, YouTube videos, or simply telling friends about your experience. Thanks much.
