EMS Synthi HI-FLI vintage synthesizer/guitar processor

This one is currently up for auction here.

"This EMS Hi-Fly come with its original pedal controllers from '70, it's very CLEAN hard to find in these conditions! and fully working of course. It's an awesome effect processor for guitars and Synthesizers, I used it on a VCS3 and now as extension on my AKS... sounds from Outer Space ;-) really impressive!

You can combine effects between: Octave Shift, Ring modulator, Fuzz, Amazing and unique Phaser, Wha, the legendary "Meow" vibrato and a complex Vco system for modulations.

It was uses from legendary bands in the past like Pink Floyd (David Gilmour), used today for electronic music productions, experimental music like SPECTRUM (Sonic Boom)

Working voltage is of 110 volts (USA standard supply) but of course usable with a common and cheap 220 to 110 volts converter."

Roland Alpha Juno-1 & Roland Juno-60

YouTube Uploaded by TheSynthFreq on Feb 17, 2012

"Hi :) This is a 'single patch' comparison of the Juno-1 and Juno-60. This Juno-60 is visiting the studio for a few days to be repaired. This Juno-60 had a dead LFO-trig switch that now functions and a faulty volume pot that is also functioning normally now. Its a Happy Juno. Both the Juno-1 and Juno-60 are programmed to the exact same parameters and waveforms.
I wanted to record a short video to compare the two Junos while I had the opportunity as well.
This Juno-60 was a joy to have visit the studio and it is fully functioning and doing well now.

:) TSF"

Ensoinq Mirage Info
The Mirage preceded the revolutionary EPS and EPS-16+ sampler workstations in the Ensoniq line-up. Historically, the Mirage was one of the earliest affordable sampler synths, originally listing under $1,700. There have been multiple versions of the Mirage too, the DSK8 and the most common and popular known as the Mirage DSK1. Its sampling specs are pretty old-school, a maximum sampling-rate of 32kHz and 8-bit resolution means your sounds will be somewhat lo-fi. The limited 8 notes of polyphony and incredibly tiny amount of storage (128 kb) almost make you want to hide the Mirage in your closet. Even the sample editing is done via hex-code which is not a simple to concept to master. Most users will just load-in sounds from the Mirage's extensive sample library."

Space Echo Spring Reverb

YouTube Uploaded by repeatle on Feb 17, 2012

"Just a short video with the spring reverb from the Roland Space Echo series. This particular reverb comes from the RE-301, but as far as I know, the RE-201, 301 and 501 has the same reverb. I removed the spring reverb when I had to fix one of my units. I've placed it in the box again, don't worry.

The sequence was programmed on a Korg Mono/Poly

I love the text on the reverb tank. 'Manufactured by beautiful girls in Milton, Wis. under controlled atmosphere conditions.'"

Pittsburgh Modular VILFO Introduction Video

YouTube Uploaded by amphonic on Feb 16, 2012

"Voltage Influenced Low Frequency Oscillator
The-Pittsburgh Modular Voltage Influenced LFO is unique in the modular world. It is a strange, triangle based LFO that lives in an 8hp euro panel. The module offers two outputs, a triangle wave, and a variable waveform that shifts from a triangle to something that is almost not completely a square wave. The VILFO also includes a unique voltage influence circuit. The influence works differently than standard control voltage inputs, it allows the incoming CV to mingle with the LFO waveforms in interesting ways, creating unique modulations and patterns."
