"The Legendary D-50 Reborn. Roland’s new V-Cards are a series of PC Cards capable of turning the V-Synth™ into a variety of retro and future-oriented synthesizers. The first card is the VC-1, which magically transforms the V-Synth into Roland’s legendary D-50 L/A Synthesizer. Simply pop in the card, power up, and you’ll be taken back to the year 1987, when Roland’s D-50 ruled supreme. Relive the D-50 in all its glory—including full programmability and all the original Patches like “Digital Native Dance,” “Living Calliope” and more. Every circuit and precise detail of this legendary synthesizer has been faithfully modeled. It doesn’t just sound like a D-50, it is a D-50! Look for more V-Cards in the future. Only from Roland.

PC Card turns the V-Synth into a complete and accurate reconstruction of Roland’s groundbreaking D-50 L/A Synthesizer
Includes all original presets like “Fantasia,” “Living Calliope” and “Intruder FX”
Full programmability using the V-Synth’s touchscreen, knobs and sliders

Elka Synthex Analog Synth Noodlings


YouTube Uploaded by peahix on Jul 6, 2009
This one is currently listed on San Diego Craigslist.
"A series of short noodlings on my Elka Synthex, all using the brilliant onboard sequencer. No other synths or effects are used. One track also features my E-Mu Drumulator, which the Synthex sequencer is sync'd to (somewhat unpredictably) via trigger pulses."

"This particular Synthex has factory MIDI (not the clunky MIDI retrofit version) and also comes with its original flight case (case has some minor damage but is 100% functional). The owner's manual is a printout copy. You can also find pdf manuals online."

Mattson EML Refurbishment First Test


via George Mattson

"Jason came over last night just as I was doing the functional checks on the EML.

It's probably 95% functional as it stands. I have to calibrate some things. I still have a lot more to do on the system; add MIDI to some of the sequencer and build a case for it.

But, the biggest drawback I have is my severe shortage of 1/4" patch cables :(

I had to recruit some guitar cords in the checkout process."

Serenity-Sound Demo 2


YouTube Uploaded by HGFSynthesizer on May 31, 2011

"Serenity -- the heavenly choir and string sythesizer

What it is and what it is not: This synthesizer is aimed to create various choir and string sounds but it is not meant to emulate exactly this or that vintage string and/or choir machine. Though you might get sounds resembling quite nice the flavours of the old machines. So don't get yourself restricted in pursuing emulations of old machines instead make use of the possibilities offered by this fully fledged synthesizer with filters, LFO, various effects and especially the Twin Etherify effect. The internal waveset has been carefully selected to provide you with a wide range of string, choir and vocal waves plus some more complex padsounds. Most of these waves have been processed widely from prior versions and some new waves have been added.

Hartmann Neuron VS with Nuke and Modelmaker


via this auction

"For sale is the fantastic Hartmann Neuron VS, one of the most powerful softsynths ever made. It comes in the original box, with the original manual and both original install discs. Also included is the Nuke controller with joystick (required to run the software), and a disc with the Modelmaker software to really take it to the next level.

This is a great-sounding VST softsynth that runs on Windows or Mac. For Intel Macs it may be necessary to run your host application in Rosetta. I have done this with Ableton Live 8 with no issues. This synth will never be manufactured again, as Hartmann has gone out of business sometime back."

Parts of music drifting in time delay


YouTube Uploaded by skoulaman on May 31, 2011

"After my music "Artic silence" (which had good comments) I decide to make more of this kind of music. It is the piano sound with a lot of time delay and from 2.45 the slow low sequence of the Doepfer and the high sequence from the Waldorf in combination with chords of the Roland and the Korg. Additional some solo of the fabelous Juno 106 The sequence is not prominent in this peace of music, that is the piano sound of a second hand Roland E15 keyboard which surprised me (I bought it second hand for 40 € at a flee market). I connected it with my Midiboard but the had to change the velocity curve (one of the funtions of the Midiboard).

Enjoy the peacefulness and relaxing sound.

greetings Skoulaman"

"You and me" - on Technics SX-C600


YouTube Uploaded by organfairy on May 31, 2011

"I don't know anything about this piece of music.

It is something I found on one of these compiled albums were some great hits are presented next to some not so great hits and some not at all great hits because the record company hopes that the fact that there are some great hits on the album cover then people will buy the album and listen to the great hits and let the record player continue playing some of the not so great and not at all great hits and eventually the not so great and not at all great hits will end up becoming great hits.

The singer who recorded this song in the late 1970's was named Tore Sørensen - or just Tore - and the it was written by Mikael Jørgensen and John Burgham. I don't know anything about those either. But it was one of those songs that I liked the first time I heard it and decided it could be interesting to make an organ version.

Most of the arrangement is played on the Technics SX-C600 organ while the sax solo is played on the Yamaha PSS-12. The Roland SH-2000 also played a small part in this.

I recorded it back in 2005 on analogue tape (sorry about the tape noise). And I had wanted to make a video for quite a while. I had bought a pinspot and mirror ball an even longer while ago and after finally pulling myself together to get it up and running I thought it was a good occation to use it in this video."

PAiA Equally Tempered Digital-Analog Converter 8780 & Keyboard 8782


via this auction

"This item is used with devices like the PAiA Keyboard No. 8782... Description: The multiplying principle on which the PAiA 8780 Equally Tempered Digital to Analog Converter is based allows binary input data to be directly converted to equally tempered control voltages without the need for look-up tables, exponential converters or other peripheral devices. The 8780 accepts 8 bits of data, of which the least significant 6 are converted to a control voltage while the most significant two are reserved for trigger flags. This module provides for easy interface of PAiA or other linear response synthesizer elements to computers or can be used with a digitally encoded keyboard to provide a digital replacement for the more common analog Sample and Hold devices. Specifications Nominal power 5v. @ 100ma. +/- 9v. @15ma. C.V. Output range 5v. to .05 volts Data Input 6 bits for control voltage (least significant) 2 bits for flags (most significant)"
