Analogue Solutions Concussor Modular Synth Drum Modules #01 (feat. Leipzig-s)
YouTube Uploaded by rezfilter on Oct 25, 2011
Update: video re-uploaded. It should play now.
"Headphones *highly* recommended:
Here's a quick look at the Analogue Solutions Concussor line of modular synth drum modules:
http://analoguesolutions.org.uk/v2/concussor-modular/
This video features a brief overview of some of the Concussor drum modules in use -- note: the modules being triggered via the MT9, MIDI-TRIG module from Analogue Solutions.
The GT8, 8-step gate sequencer is also featured at the onset, triggering the modules via clock from the Oberkorn MK3 analogue sequencer (Ice Machine edition).
Additionally, the latest Leipzig synthesizer (Leipzig-s) is featured throughout the video running its internal 8-step sequencer (time triggered via MIDI clock in this example). The Leipzig-s provides the bulk of the sonic architecture in the video, with a few ancillary synths thrown in for good measure. Music was created to offer an overview of the drum modules in a musical bed.
As usual, all music is 100% analogue and 100% original.
Enjoy." OTO Biscuit & RSF Kobol make an appearance as well.
Moog Little Phatty and Tom Oberheim MidiSEM
YouTube Uploaded by kennykeyboard on Oct 25, 2011
"Both analog synths making serious noises. Included are the usual filter sweeps and detuning oscillators. Some of my usual riffs dot the landscape. Most is just ambient knob turns. I couldn't get them to take turns with polyphony. The Little Phatty has a provision for adding extra voices in a midi chain. The SEM just has low, high, and last note."

The Solaris actually made it's first appearance here on MATRIXSYNTH back on March 26, 2007 as a teaser post. Take a look. It's great to see it arrive. Congrats to John Bowen! See the John Bowen label for a trip down memory lane (I wish there were a way to reverse order posts on Blogger).

Higher [Eigenharp EigenD Controls Modular]
"Striving for higher resolution electronic instruments to connect the player to the sound the old-fashioned way.
This is a technical demonstration, meaning, I finished the technical coding, hooked it up, patched the simplest thing I could on the modular and started noodling.
The way this works is that since EigenD (eigenharps platform) is now open source, we've (with the help of eigenlabs) been able to crack it open a bit for hacking. We now have an OSC agent which pumps an insane volume of raw data out of the harp ready for some experimental harvesting.
In this demo, I have a MAX patch which sanitizes the data, and makes it expressly fit for translation to control voltage of a modular.
Some data points here. EigenD sends 2000 events per control point per second. Per note there are 3 high res control points per note (pressure, yaw, pitch). So that is 6000 events per sec translated over the wire into voltage. 2 more control points require voltage which are pitch and cv. That means using an audio interface for cv, you need 5 audio outs per level of polyphony. 5 outs for monophonic, 10 outs for duophonic, and up.
Luckily, monophonic is pretty amazing, duophonic is an incredible luxury and 3 levels is showing off.
After I have prototyped this, I could see writing an EigenD agent expressly to do this directly, making the eigenharp modular friendly out of the box.
I however have to mention that this would not be possible without Expert Sleepers Silent Way plugins as the OSC to CV bridge. Nor would it be possible without MAX in this prototype stage."

POCKET PIANO by CRITTER and GUITARI
via this auction
"The Pocket Piano is a mini electronic synthesizer with a big sound! The synthesizer features six unique modes:
• Vibrato Synth
• Harmonic Sweeper
• Two-Octave Arpeggiator
• Octave Cascade
• Mono FM Synth
• FM Arpeggiator
The Pocket Piano is housed in a sturdy aluminum and hardwood case and also includes a built-in speaker, a 1/4" output jack, and wooden keys made for a refined touch. It can be powered both by a 9V battery or a wall wart (not included).
When you change modes with the right-most wooden button, a color LED above that button indicates what mode is selected with a different color for each mode. The entire keyboard may be tuned over a 2 octave range by turning the knob second from right. Volume is controlled by the right-most knob. The function of the remaining two left knobs depend on what mode is selected, and are described below. There is also a button that selects waveform (sine, square, triangle, sawtooth) in the first four modes, and shifts the keyboard an octave higher in the last two modes."
Rare Vintage PAiA Gnome with Original Box
via this auction
"It was originally made to imitate the sound of the wind, but it was possible to make other sounds as well. It has a small vinyl controller strip originally used to control the "strength" of the wind or other effects. Because of its small size and battery power, this small synth has become something of a classic. Very simple VCO and Noise source to VCF with just ribbon control and a couple function generators to do envelops with a trigger. Supposedly, only about 300 of these syths were made. This one has its original shipping box..."
Roland SH-3a Analog Synth
via this auctionNoisebug (RSS)
"The SH-3a is a funky little analog synth and was among Roland's first programmable additive synths. The SH-3a has a single oscillator for a simple monophonic sound. It could perform additive synthesis by mixing in up to five different waveforms."
Sequential Circuits Prophet-5, Rev 2
via this auction "Sequential Circuits Prophet-5, Rev 2 with a cassette interface. This is the definitive five-voice polyphonic analog synthesizer with 10 oscillators, 10 envelope generators, 5 lowpass filters and 5 VCAs.
Rev 2’s are the best sounding and most sought after Prophets because they contain the warm and musical, SSM 2040 filters. The SSM (Solid State Music) filters sound almost organic and keep their fat bass sound even when the resonance is turned up. They're much more "Moog-like" than the later Prophets using Curtis filters."Notifications on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge and Other FB Groups

This is an EX NEW ORDER EMULATOR II circa 1984 as used on tour and in the studio by New Order. see video of this keyboard here being used live by New Order playing Blue Monday Live in 1985
This Emulator was bought by me Andy Lee (Grammy Nominated producer and part of Love To Infinity) and has been in my studio since 1997 as a piece of Rock N Roll History. It was used in the new Freak Asylum Video for the single Fetish with Kelly Llorenna.A unique opportunity to own a piece of New Order history. I have never used this Emulator as it was sold to me as not working by Tim at Axis audio. So it is sold as a piece of rock history not a working Emulator."

"One of my favorite toys, but it seems you guys need it more than I do ;-)"
via this auction"The knob caps are not all original, but all work perfectly. It seems someone thought to add CV jacks to the drum, as you can see in the 3rd picture, but those colorful jacks are not wired to anything internally. The internal components of the Synare 3 are completely original and unmodified."
POLIVOKS - soviet legendary 2-osc's poly synth
via this auction"The Polyvox is a duophonic analog synthesizer, with a 49-note (F-E) keyboard. It was made and sold in Russia (then USSR). It features two VCOs, a noise generator, one LFO, a filter (low-pass and bandpass), and two ADSR envelope generators. VCO1 can be cross-modulated by VCO2. Each ADSR can be switched to auto-trigger, each with independent rates.The sound is quite rich and somewhat harsh and aggressive. This is more of a space-synth. You can be sure that you will have never heard the sounds this one can produce. It sounds like these old Yamaha CS-30's, but then fat filters like in Moogs. Polyvox comes with a lockable hard shock resistant aluminum case covered with plastic, also there are two plastic compartments attached to the inside."
