Some pis of the inside below.

"Oberheim OB-Xa in excellent physical condition:

- Powers on with output and the classic "Oberheim" sound.

- Later model OB-Xa with storage for 120 programs.

- All 8 voice boards were recapped with new electrolytics a couple years ago. Instrument powers on and autotune functions properly to tune voice boards.

- New key bushings were also installed a couple years ago. Keys are nice and soft when depressed, not clunky...

- An E and F key second from the right didn't sound when depressed though a quick inspection revealed the J-wire for both keys is in good condition and may just need some cleaning as well as the contact bar."

"The P600 is extremely versatile and easy to use! Its best functions include the onboard arpeggiator, 2-track sequencer and poly-modulation. The P600 is great for creating analog effects, swells and drones. It has a cool glide effect and has very flexible modulation possibilities! Perfect for Ambient, Dub and other electronic music.

"Just a quickie this time. I liked how this little jam was sounding, but it was the end of the evening and I was about to leave the studio, so I quickly shot a jam with no studio lights. Arturia Minibrute on bass, Arturia iSEM on pads and keys. Tr-8 and KP3 handling the beats, fx and loops.

Thanks for Watching!"

Polivoks Synthesizer sequenced MIDI via Dotcom modules


Published on Oct 7, 2015 alternatingbitmusic

"I still intend to do a full Polivoks demo but I was having fun with this sequence so I had to share. I love the vibrato-like modulation I used on oscillator one. This Polivoks has a MIDI IN / THRU mod, and I'm using the Synthesizers.com quantizer bank aid Q172's MIDI out to transmit CV for pitch via the Q119 sequencer."

Archetype Of A Synthesizer - The Haxan Cloak



"Recently, Moog had the honor of sitting down with Nine Inch Nails’ Trent Reznor [see the bottom of this post], the genre-defining music innovator, master synthesist and Academy Award winning composer. In the interview, Reznor recounts his intimate relationship with the Minimoog Voyager, which he feels “is the archetype of what a synthesizer is and should be.” Through personal stories, Reznor reveals his decades long history with the instrument and how it has shaped the way he views and creates music.

The video is set to an original score by British electronic music producer, The Haxan Cloak, co-producer of Bjork’s Vulnicura.. Befitting the occasion, the artist used a Minimoog Voyager and a prototype Mother-32, Moog’s newest synthesizer, to create the score.

'I made the track in a unique way that I never have before.

I have had modular synths for a long time, and consistently produced music with them, but purposefully never had a ‘keyboard-based’ setup because of not wanting to treat them in such a ‘traditional’ manner (purely for reasons of self-limitation).

Having the Voyager allowed me to utilize a more responsive approach of seeing the picture and essentially ‘playing’ along to it. I then took those results and used them to modulate other parameters and processed them further. The Mother 32 was used extensively as a sound source alongside also.

The Voyager is a synth I have always been fascinated by, but unfortunately never had the opportunity to own. I knew people that had them, but my first physical encounter was actually on the recent Bjork tour. I used it for a lot for recreating basslines from her back catalogue, which it did effortlessly.
It’s such an incredibly versatile synth and has already become a uniquely indispensable backbone of my studio.' - The Haxan Cloak"
