Classic ARP 2600: 2600P and 3604P Keyboard

via this VEMIA auction

SN 26757 & 36757

"This is a weird one. It may be a classic synth but when it arrived here it just looked and felt a bit tired and old. The cases look their age (with a couple of replacement catches and the tolex far from immaculate). Inside, the main panel is actually lovely, and in excellent condition, and the keyboard too is very nice. But a few of the sliders were a bit slow to become un-noisy (eg left speaker fader and VCF to VCA slider) and the keyboard is a little clacky. Some sliders, too, are more resistant to movement than others (eg the fune tune sliders.) Plus it had a collection of a few patchleads which honestly look like they are older than the machine itself. But then ..... as I started playing it, it became more and more desirable. You buy an old machine like this (40 years!!) for its character not its modern attributes ... and suddenly the sounds that started coming out of it hooked me. Through the internal speakers, and through external amplification, it sounds wonderful. Everything works properly (given some time for the oscillators to stabilise and a bit of wiggling of any noisy slider) and honestly it sounds so much better than any modern thing. Give it a collection of decent patch leads and it will give you a lot of pleasure back for years to come. Packing 20GBP."

Roland System 100M Modular with 10 Modules & Keys

via this VEMIA auction

"Small modulars don't get much more beautifully made and high quality than the System 100M, and this is a great example, with two 191J cabinets, a 181 keyboard, and ten good modules. Cabinet 1: 182 Sequencer s/n 870249, 112 Dual VCO s/n 213018, 150 Ring Mod / Noise / S&H / LFO s/n 770552, 165 rare double portamento controller s/n 270173, 140 Dual Envelope s/n 911109. Cabinet 2: 112 Dual VCO s/n 800443, 150 Ring Mod / Noise / S&H / LFO s/n 800844, 121 Dual VCF s/n 780329, 130 Dual VCA s/n 780305, 140 Dual Envelope s/n 780621. We played this for a couple of hours and didn't find anything less than 100% working, so although of course there are more possibilities than one can check in two hours we are confident you will find it totally satisfying. Cosmetically it has some oxidation showing through the paint on the bottom panel of one of the 191-Js, and the bender lever has been broken and re-fixed on the keyboard. Apart from those faults, this would be near-mint. It comes with the keyboard and module multi-pin leads, and 31 patch leads of varying lengths including 7 top-quality Phonoflex cables which could be reserved for crucial audio patches. UK voltage. Packing 14GBP."

SN 861

"A beautiful example of one of the great analogue polysynths, the finest work by the genius of Italian synth technology, Sr Mario Maggi. It plays superbly, full of rich smooth room-filling textures, with or without the three-position chorus. All knobs are smooth and silent, the keyboard is a delight, and everything about it we tried is perfect. Cosmetically, it has a few tiny dings on the wooden endcheeks, a crack on the front of the left endcheek, and two superficial marks to the left of the control panel at the bottom of the LFO controls. Apart from these minor things it is undoubtedly near mint. It comes with MIDI via the standard umbilical cord to the 15-pin socket, very professionally done. It has clearly been serviced recently to the highest standards. Packing 20GBP. We will include a UK or standard European mains lead."

Aelita "Soviet Minimoog"

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this VEMIA auction

"This is really the Soviet Minimoog - with some minusses, of course, but also some plusses. The filter emphasis is much harsher, and the envelopes aren't as well designed, we reckon - but the basic three-oscillator sound and filter in non-resonant mode is a Minimoog rival in every way. The overall cosmetic design is tacky compared with a Mini, but is still solid, and, on this machine, looks all-original. Where it honestly outscores the Mini is in its extras - 'strings' mode, which seems to put a different chorus on each of the footages, unison, and the way you can switch easily between two or three very different sound textures. High-note keyboard priority, great for holding down a bass note and doing stuff over the top - the dedicated LFO comes in useful here too for sequencer-like riffing. Checked by nLi April 14 and still in good working order today. More info at oocities.org/...aelita.htm ruskeys.net/...aelita Packing: 10GBP."

Korg Sigma

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this VEMIA auction

SN 240234

"Truly a great synth - and when you discover how many Korg 35 modules are lurking inside, you begin to understand one of the reasons why it sounds so good. It is seriously useable too. Although it is basically a preset synth, each of the presets has a knob dedicated to the most important function, plus you can have as many presets at once as you want, simultaneously - hence the need for so many filters. All the modulation rockers also have a dedicated knob to control their effect. Add in two joysticks, aftertouch, and good interfacing via Hz/V sockets in and out, and CV inputs for VCO FM and VCF cutoff point, ...and an excellent basic sound.... this is almost unbeatable in its class. This example is in very nice cosmetic condition not perfect, but check the photos to see how nice - and perfect working order - Lucid serviced it in early April ready for the auction, when it amazingly didn't sell. So here it is, at a further reduced price. Packing 8GBP."

"For sale here is a MINTY OSCar Oxford Synthesiser Company. This is the nicest Oxford I have ever seen, it is latest version with midi, fully functional & in near perfect minty shape. It sounds AMAZING, with a huge set of features for the time, including programmable harmonic waveforms, patch memory, sequencer, an awesome arpeggiator, duophonic capabilities (yes you can play two notes at once) along with the best filter I have ever played, allowing for LP, BP, HP, overdrive capabilities. Huge bass, leads, effects unlike anything else. Easily my favorite monophonic synthesizer of all time, & I've played them all, from Minimoogs to Arp Odysseys to Synton Syrinx. If I had to describe the sound I would say it's instant Boards of Canada, smooth, bubbly, analog with an aggressive Aphex Twin side that can get gritty & rough..."

Lo-Fi SES: Hackable 8-bit Chiptune Instrument with Open Source Carts



Some details via Kickstarter:

"A lo-fi 8-bit instrument that looks as good as it sounds. As fun at home as it is on stage. Open source and fully hackable.

Know how to play video games? Like music? You’ll love the Lo-Fi SES (Sound Entertainment System). It's an instrument that makes it easy to rock out as a chiptune artist.

The Lo-Fi SES is all fun with no practice. It may look like a game controller, but it's actually a music controller. You might've never learned to play piano or guitar, but I’ll bet you rocked at more than a few video games. Lo-Fi SES lets you turn those hard fought skills into musical magic.

And, like any good guitar, the Lo-Fi SES has to look as good as it sounds. That's why the Lo-Fi SES itself is a work of art. The fantastic Doctor Octoroc divined the graphics for this instrument and produced the animation in the video...

The controller is the heart of the Lo-Fi SES experience. Just like you are given a few items when you begin any game, the Lo-Fi SES starts you off with a default set of sounds on board. The default sounds are a lo-fi drum set. They're similar to the attack sounds from the video games of your childhood. Like any good portable system, sound output from the Lo-Fi SES comes from a standard audio jack that works with headphones or your stereo.

Just like the SNES, the Lo-Fi SES has all the buttons you could ever need! Use the ones on the right to trigger the sounds, and the ones on the left to control which track is being played or recored. You can even record multiple tracks and swap them out!

The Lo-Fi SES blinks at you more than F-Zero to let you know what is happening. But, every LED aids you along your musical adventure. The ROYB LEDs let you know what sounds you're playing or which ones are on the looped track. The record LED lets you know when you're recording or playing on top of a track. Best of all, there are tempo LEDs that keep you from ever missing a beat.

Finally, there's the badass battery life. Use 6 AAAs and get all day battery life. 24 hours of continuous play, so you can keep rocking long after your parents have gone to bed.

Cartridges

Upgrade your Lo-Fi SES experience with cartridges to mod your musical journey. And, these cartridges don't need you to ever blow on them to make them work!

If you like to tinker or you're into Arduinos, this is a must-have cartridge. This cartridge connects your Lo-Fi SES to your Mac, Linux, or Windows computer (standard mini USB cable not included). There are infinite possibilities once connected: swap out the sounds with some wavs you designed, tweak the timing of things to match your style, upgrade the software, or make it control your favorite sequencer..."

"Here's a lengthy demo demonstrating the new Analogue Solutions Telemark Filter Module:

KEY FEATURES OF TMF -Pure analogue circuitry. -Telemark filter -4 filter types -Low, High, Band, Notch -Resonance (Q) boost feature -Slim design -Spun metal knob caps

The Telemark multimode filter module is based on the filter of the legendary Telemark semi-modular synthesizer.

The filter is a 12db/Octave multimode type. Multimode means there are more than one type of filter output.

There are in fact four: low pass, band pass, high pass and notch filter.
Additionally, notch filter can be varied for an even wider range of sounds.

Use of Gain and Q allow for even wider possibilities.

No special knowledge is required to use this filter. Just plug your audio in the left, and your audio out on the right.

Optionally (and recommended!) patch a control voltage in to give the sound movement."

Mute Synth II is a statement against MPEG culture and places an onus on an active participant rather than passive consumer and has been born out of Dirty Electronics’ ongoing commitment to DIY approaches and noise aesthetics, and serves as a catalyst for experimenting with electronic sound.

Additional modules and add-ons make the MSII customisable and scalable.

Packaged with a booklet containing simple and clear instructions, diagrams and essays, the MSII opens-up usability to not only the synth aficionado, but also an untrained enthusiast.

Features:

Designer circuit board
Noise generator
Feedback
Oscillator
Wave-shaping
Buffered output
Sequencer
Touch and pot control
Mini patchbay
Headphone/line output
Battery powered (9v battery not included)
Mute Synth II Dimensions: 105mm x 165mm"
