"The Drone Establisher" Unique Oscillator (CAE Telegraph & Data Generator 8620)
"Comes with a Banana to Jack cable, so you can plug it into your desk/amp/whatever.
I warn you, this thing is DAMN HOT; and by that, I mean the output of this unit is a large amount of volts which may potentially damage your equipment. Start on mute, and very slowly turn it up, if you go full-bore into something, you might regret it. It's blown up a guitar distortion pedal before --- It's had a taste of letting the magic smoke out of components, and it's got the need to extract more.
A hint: use the left hand side pair of outputs, as these are much lower in voltage and current than the right hand side pair of outputs.
What does it do, I hear you ask???
Well, it's designed to send test signals down phone lines in various patterns to emulate a modem. You'll see on there, there's a whole bunch of olde school modem bauds on there.
See those 8 switches on the right? They're sweet. If you put it into that mode, you draw the outputting waveform in these switches. Kind of like Walsh tones if you've heard of those.
What does it sound like?????
It sounds like
THIS sample I recorded live randomly going through the modes.
Awful and terrible, sacred and profane. This is an unfiltered sound. If you run it through some effects, a pedal pitch, and a reverb or delay, you can ger some amazing timbres from this."
"The original EX-800 had only a very basic MIDI implementation and also had somewhat limited sound modulating abilities. The HAWK and AtomaHawk kits bring so many new features including total MIDI control of every parameter. And the number of parameters is nearly doubled. There are four LFO's (2 LFO's and 2 SLFO's) instead of just one. The resonance, moog slayer and FM-800 mod's are part of the AtomaHawk upgrade. So you get all of those mod's and also the 12/24db per octave mod is included too. What really makes the difference is having those mod's under MIDI and patch memory control. Now you can use envelope generator 3 and any of the four LFO's to control the mod's. There is also MIDI velocity sensitivity, portamento and many, many more features including harmonic modulation. You also get 256 patch memory in 4 banks of 64. And all data is stored in flash ROM so you can forget about battery replacement and rest easy about battery leakage causing damage since you don't need an internal battery at all..."

"This auction is for a Complete working OB-8 eight voice Processor Oberheim that came off a working OB-8. General functionality has been tested, but it may need additional calibration. This is a rare piece that rarely ever pop up on ebay. It would be a great project piece or great for repair / replacement."
"This auction is for an Oberheim OB-8 front panel complete with potentiometer boards 1 and 2 and input / output jacks. It has a few nicks and scrapes, but is functional. The buttons have working LED’s and the pots are responsive. A general test has been done to test functionality, but may need additional cleaning. The knob covers have been removed but are not necessary for operation. It would be a great replacement board or great for a building project- everything is laid out very logically..."
" The Yamaha RX-120 features standard drum souonds including bass drum, snare, toms, hi hats, cymbal, and claps as well as congas, whistle, bongos and other latin sounds with 120 pre-programmed patterns grouped into genres such as rock 1, rock 2, funk, slow jazz,etc. which can be arranged into the 8 songs memory. Alternately, the RX-120 can function as a MIDI sound module, receiving MIDI notes and MIDI sync in. The RX-120 has MIDI in, stereo 1/4" outputs, and 1/4" headphone output. This unit has been professionally modified with a surface mounted box containing:
1 high frequency overdrive knob, adds high frequency filtering feedback from subtle to extreme
