via this auction

"Yamaha SK50D - is a Dual keyboard synthesizer. 100% analog

It is the rarest and best sounding of the SK series keyboard.

Sound is similar for the Yamaha CS-80

Almost perfect condition - you wont find a nicer SK50D

* Vibrato, Tremolo effects
* 7 Polyphonic
* Original Legs
* Original Travel Case
* Original Foot Pedal
* Calibrated Tuned
* Amazing condition

This Synth is heavy, local pick up is preferred.

SK-series are combo-keyboards with synthesizer, organ, brass and string sections.

This is the giant of the Yamaha SK ( symphonic keyboard) series of synths. A very heavy ,dual keyboard multi synth instrument with both preset and programmable sounds.

It has got a 9 drawbar organ, monophonic bass synth ; a woofer killer bass with sine 3 oscillators .
It has got a monophonic solo synth that can be layered with the bass synth for even more power and it responds to aftertouch!).

There is a fully programmable 7 note polyphonic analog synth with VC LPF and resonance and it has three presets, and a 7 note polyphonic analog string synth ( actually these are the same synths which can be layered without losing polyphony but the string synth is a preset player with three preset sounds. The three string presets are almost the same sounds playing one octave higher than each other).

The aftertouch can control filter, filter modulation and vibrato at the same time. The Synth surprisingly has got no pitch bender and that is the only downside of the huge beast.

Organ plays on both manuals. Mono synth usually plays at upper keyboard (can also double bass synth at the bottom keyboard) ,poly synth, string synth and bass plays at the bottom keyboard only. The sounds that play on the same keyboard can be layered without losing polyphony. What a beast!

It has got ensemble and tremolo effects with speed variation control separately on both keyboards and detune effect for the poly synth..

Separate audio outputs for each sound and an on board sound mixer .

It is a very rare instrument. Very playable with lovely key action and gigable in its own hardcase. Has no MIDI but has got CV and trigger IN/OUT. Also a leslie cabinet connector."

"Yamaha celebrates the 40th Anniversary of Yamaha Synthesizers with the Yamaha Synth Book!!!!!!!!!

This app features a complete history of Yamaha Synthesizers, an integrated virtual analog soft synth, and serves as a portal to Yamaha’s online synth communities.

5 FEATURES:

-HISTORY features detailed, “behind the scenes” information about the 40-year design and development history of Yamaha synthesizers. This fascinating historical accounting of the technological breakthroughs behind some of the most innovative, musical and successful Yamaha synthesizers is a must-read for all synth fans.

-AN2015 features virtual analog modeling like the AN1x. It also features a drum part that can keep the beat going while you perform and control the main synth part.

●Use case 1: Enjoy it as a standalone iOS app!
There are 2 modes available, SYNTH mode and Drum mode that work at the same time, e.g. when drum phrase is playing, Analog sound can be selectable and playable with the drum phrase, and vice versa without stopping ongoing music.

●Use case 2：Use it with a MOXF as an external tone generator!
When connected to the Yamaha MOXF Music Production Synthesizer (OS version 1.10) using the Lightning to USB Camera Adapter by Apple, the MOXF becomes the MIDI/Audio interface for the iOS app creating a very powerful music production system.

Arp Solus Analogue Synthesizer

via this auction

"Functionally, the solus is a cross between the ARP Axxe and ARP Odyssey models without noise generation or sample & hold capabilities. All control voltage, gate, and trigger interface connections are conveniently available from its front panel.

Like its older and larger sibling the ARP 2600, the Solus travels in its own tolex covered wooden case instead of the plastic or (later) steel chassis used for other ARP synthesizer models. The power supply circuitry is mounted to its front panel and not its case. Always unplug the Solus if you ever have to open it up for maintenance."

"The synthesizer is good condition, there are a few marks and scratches but no more than what you would expect for an instrument of this age. It is completely functional and all the sections work, although the fourth oscillator does drift a bit, so it may be need to be tuned. Having said that it usually stabilises after about 20 or 30 mins."

The Modulus 002 constantly records what you are playing including all knob movements. They estimate it records about eight hours worth of heaving playing and none of it is lost when you turn it off. You can recall any point of time to see what you were playing at that time. The 002 also allows you to save patches to the cloud.

"http://SoundsAndGear.com: Checking out the Modulus 002 from Modal Electronics, this thing is CRAZY! Hybrid synth with digital waveforms and analog filter, tons of control and a very awesome interface. This is the second video I did, the first only has my camera audio but I will be uploading it as well

MFB DOMINION 1 at NAMM 2015 BBoyTechReport.com

Published on Jan 24, 2015 BBoy Tech Report

"Stumbled on this great analog synth at NAMM. It's not totally new but I found it pretty intriguing none the less. It sounds great. Sorry, no direct audio but thanks to the iRig Mic Field we got a pretty decent recording of the audio from the synth.


-------------------
DOMINION 1 offers three oscillators for maximum flexibility. Each waveform can be varied in symmetry. Besides altering the pulse width of a rectangle, you may also continuously turn a saw tooth into a triangle and a triangle into a sine. All oscillators also offer ring modulation, one of them is an analogue circuit! In addition, VCO 2 and VCO 3 can be synced to VCO1. Finally, VCO3 can modulate the frequency of VCO 1 and VCO 2 and is dynamical controlled by LFO or AD Envelope. The analogue oscillator circuit is processor-controlled for stable tuning. To complete the available sound sources, noise or an external audio input can be added to the VCOs in DOMINION 1's mixer section. The redesigned SED Filter offers now 12 variations like four Lowpasses, two Highpasses, two Bandpasses and two Notches.

* Programmabele Analog Synthesizer with 3 Octave Keyboard
* 2 Ribbon Controls, Arpeggiator/Sequencer, Velocity&Aftertouch
* 3 VCOs with Waveshaping, Analog&Digital Ringmodulator
* Dual-Sync and dynamic FM, Noisegenerator
* 12 fold redesigned four stages SED Multimode Filter
* Huge Patchfield to speak with world of Modulars and CV/Gate
* Velocity-Routingmatrix with 12 destinations
* 3 LFOs, 2 with One-Shot-Function and Reset
* 3 Envelopes with 70mm Faders
* Intuitive Handling and Quality Hardware, internal Power Supply
* Midi Dump, In, Out, Thru"
