"Prophet 5 serial # 2068. It is in excellent shape, as I have had it serviced by Wine Country, and the receipt will be sent to the buyer for proof. It has a calzone road case, which has been reformed, as well as both operation manual and technical manual. It is almost perfect cosmetically, except for a couple chips in the case. It gets a 9 out of 10. It does not affect the functionality at all. It is currently loaded with factory patches. It is rev 3.0, and does not have MIDI."

Octave Cat SRM 4 note sequence


Published on Mar 26, 2015 zaphid

Interesting little trick with the Octave Cat.

"quote from a Sound on Sound article:

'A Trick Of The Tail
Octave also made a lot of noise about their so-called '4-note Sequencer Patch' on the CAT. This was a trick by which you turned OSC1 to its subsonic range for LFO duties, and then used the sub-oscillator (a squarewave) and the pulse wave to modulate the pitch of OSC2. The result was a 4-note sequence which, it you set the sliders on OSC1 very carefully, could be used to play arpeggio-like effects.'

You can add swing by narrowing the width of the pulse shape"

Raspberry Pi Music Synthesis : multi-synth sequencing

Published on Mar 26, 2015

"A first-generation Raspberry Pi (Model B+ overclocked to 950MHz) runs a sequencing application which drives 8 simultaneous soft synths running on the Pi, and also renders the 2-oscilloscope waveform on screen via OpenGL ES.

6 of the synths are 2.5 oscillator Virtual Analog monosynths, the other 2 are 2-layer sample replay synths, each supporting 12 notes of polyphony. All percussion sounds were also sampled from the Pi Virtual Analog synth, so every sound - apart from the wonderful massed Caitlin Downie vocal 'Mmmh' and 'Aaah' - is derived from the same Raspberry Pi Virtual Analog codebase."

Moog Releases MF Chorus & MF Flange with New Look


via Moog Music Inc.

Don't miss the Gwar video below!

"We are happy to announce the official release of two new Minifooger Analog Effects Pedals – the MF CHORUS Bucket Brigade Time Modulator & the MF FLANGE Bucket Brigade Harmonic Manipulator.

The MF CHORUS is a 100% analog BBD based time modulation pedal capable of a wide array of sonic shifting and manipulation in both mono and stereo output modes. A three-position Mix switch quickly transitions the effect from subtle shifting and swirling into analog vibrato, while the wide-range Time and Feedback controls allow users to completely customize each sound to their personal taste. In moderate settings the MF Chorus is warm and full of character, but at extreme settings it becomes a multi-octave modulated slap delay with near-infinite feedback trails. Like all Minifooger Analog Effects, the MF Chorus features a dedicated expression pedal input on its rear panel. This input provides hands-free control over one parameter - the Rate knob.

The MF FLANGE is a 100% analog BBD based harmonic manipulator pedal designed to far exceed the voicing and flexibility constraints of traditional flanger designs. It features two dedicated voicing modes, vocal and traditional, which are easily selected via the two-position Type switch. The wide-range Time and Feedback controls allows for fine-tuning of the MF Flange’s sonic vocabulary, which reaches from bright metallic modulation and classic jet flange, to chaotic pitch shifting and even analog chorus. Like all Minifooger Analog Effects, the MF Flange features a dedicated expression pedal input on its rear panel. This input provides hands-free control over one parameter - the Time knob.

NEW LOOK

In addition to the release of the MF CHORUS and MF FLANGE, Moog has also announced a new motif for the Minifooger family of analog effects that marks a departure from the pedal’s original all-black aesthetic. Though the look has changed, Minifoogers are still hand-built in Asheville, NC. Each unit is housed in a compact, cast aluminum enclosure and features a 100% analog signal path, true bypass switching, optional battery power, and a single expression pedal input providing hands-free control over one specified parameter within each unit."

Percussa Announces Wireless AudioCubes PRO, Available Now


via Percussa:

"We're very proud to announce that we're releasing a new version of the wireless audiocubes: the Percussa Wireless AudioCubes PRO.

The Percussa Wireless AudioCubes PRO have the same built in electronics as the Wireless AudioCubes, but will come with a high-quality housing that has increased impact and wear resistance.

Software updates will continue to work on the previous version of the Wireless AudioCubes, and will work equally well on the new version, the Wireless AudioCubes PRO.

Design Process

Instead of continuing to produce a housing from two U shaped parts, which are produced by laser cutting, bending and gluing processes, we've decided to opt for a new design, advanced materials such as Delrin and Polycarbonate, and production processes such as CNC milling and molding.

Bert has been working on this updated design for more than a year, going over countless variations and possible ways to produce the new AudioCubes, until arriving at the design you can see above and below in the image gallery.

The Percussa Wireless AudioCubes PRO will consist of 2 parts. The top part will be made of white translucent material, and bottom part of opaque black material. The black material will enhance the contrast of the colours displayed by the top part.

We decided to make these changes to give you, the AudioCubist, an even better experience when using AudioCubes on stage or in the studio: an updated design, increased colour contrast, improved impact and wear resistance and easier maintenance. All of these changes will push AudioCubes to the next level.

We'll be posting more info about the housing on the newsletter in the next weeks. Meanwhile, check out the renderings below!

We have limited inventory of this new version of the AudioCubes, the Wireless AudioCubes PRO. If you want to make sure you get the new version, head over to our pricing page, and order now."

Vintage Doepfer Sound Sampler

Update: Turns out this was not Doepfer's first creation (see the timeline here).  You can find some history on the Sound Sampler previously captured here and here.

This one in via Florian Anwater:

"this is an interesting find at the sequencer.de forum:

Partial translation of the text:

I' dug out a Doepfer Sound Sampler. It has a sound interface and 8 voice cards. I found also the Building instructions. I know that it can be used in connection with a C64 computer, but the ribbon cable which connects the sampler with the computer is broken. So I cannot check the functionality.
[...] My father has built it in the 80ies, as he hoped to get the fairlight sound, but he was disappointed by the results.

Comment from Florian: Appearently this is a really complete system. Consisting of the voice card and the loop card for each voice and the interface card for the C64."

"Up for auction is a used Starkey Laboratories Hearing Science Laboratory HSL II Synthesizer. This was originally designed to test hearing capabilities. This unit has been kept indoors in a climate controlled environment, and the inside components show no signs of corrosion. I was able to power the unit on and feed music through it. I do not have the proper equipment nor the knowledge to fully test this unit and say that it is in 100% working condition. The unit has some damage on the wood casing and a small dent in the face plate which I have highlighted in the pictures. The face plate could use a slight cleaning, as I do not know what cleaning product to use on it and do not want to ruin anything. Overall this unit is in good condition for being made in 1978."

"For sale is a Moog Rogue analog synthesizer in mint condition. I bought it from the original owner about 20 years ago. It was unused when I got it and has been in my studio ever since. Hardly used and never out of the house. Included is the power supply.

This is a real synth, serial number written by hand! Great for bass, sync leads or create effects for sampling. Please be aware that this is not a MIDI synth. To control via MIDI you'll need a CV convertor. Also, these synths have lots of pots, sliders and moving parts. Yearly cleaning/maintenance is essential."

Roland TB 303 Devilfish

via this auction

"I bought this unit as a standard TB 303 in about 07 or 08 . Ironically I got it cheap from my housemate because he was behind in rent and 5 years later I am selling it for the same reason.
I posted the 303 to Robin Whittle in Melbourne to have it modified and I seem to remember it cost about 1400 aud / 1000 usd.
Robin returned it to me and I have used it ever since, often clocked by an MPC 1000 or a 60 to at times astounding effect.
You can interesting results with this machine by sending notes from your sequencer into the devilfish WHILE you are also running the devilfish sequencer at the same time AND cycling through all your devilfish stored patterns while your midi note information is playing.
The power supply recommended by Robin Whittle is the one used for old Boss guitar pedals. Check his site at Realworld Interfaces ; it is somewhere there. I use batteries to be on the safe side."

"All sliders, knobs & keys are working perfectly without any noise. The only part that isn't working is the DC power input which is why it was de-registered as school equipment around 10 years ago... little did they know it still works via batteries :) I'm sure this is a very easy fix but i didn't want to try anything myself. There are a few school name & register numbers on the top, back and underneath. The batteries have been in there for over a year now and it's still going! The battery casing is also missing, but these can be picked up online."
