Solaris Analog Programs - Part1
"Some of my custom Solaris programs recorded in mono with and without fx, through modified Toft ATB analog mixer. Musically not very interesting, but to give an idea of how close to an analog synthesizer the fully digital Solaris can sound. Most sounds have been recorded without fx, but after 2:40 I introduce some analog Electro Harmonix guitar pedal fx (commented in the timeline). In the last two sounds I used the Waldorf wavetables and "Jaws" (JP-80x0 supersaw) waveforms with logic digital stereo delay and Relab LX480 reverb. Some of the sounds utilize the built-in eq of the Solaris, but not the fx."

"Up for sale, a Digital Keyboards Synergy model polyphonic synthesizer in exceptional, near mint condition and in perfect working order. Of the estimated 700-800 Synergy keyboards originally produced, it's estimated that less than 100 are still in existence, and this example is easily one of the cleanest and most complete, with the original pedal, manual, and paperwork. This synthesizer was produced from 1982-85, and Digital Keyboards was a high-end US-based division of the Italian company Crumar. Using a high speed additive oscillator system developed by Bell Laboratories, Digital Keyboards created a sophisticated additive synthesizer known as the Crumar General Development System (GDS). While the GDS originally had a price tag of a whopping $27,500, the Synergy was a moderately stripped down version that sold for a mere $5,300 (roughly $13,000 when adjusted for inflation). A favorite of pioneering electronic music composer Wendy Carlos and a synth that has inspired a fervent following, the Synergy was state of the art in its time and is an enduring classic today.
The cosmetic condition of this Synergy is exceptional, as evidenced by the photos, with only a couple light scuffs on the plastic top and tolexed exterior. The original dual foot pedal is included, along with an IEC power cable, the manual, and other original paperwork."

"Modified by Studio Electronics (I believe in the mid '90s), or perhaps "MIDI-fied" would be the correct term. This MIDI-ready modification was done to many Minis in the LA area, I am told. Note the additional switches, the added LFO, etc. The functionality of these pro modded Moogs is greatly expanded! The Roland MPU-101 is the go-to MIDI interface here; this one is included with a group of labeled gray patch cables, as seen. There are paper copies of the SE guide and the MPU manual (probably a download). There is no other equipment, bag, case, or document included.
Cosmetically the Mini's paneling is quite nice, with just light wear and tear. I detect no foul odors. The keyboard plays very well, and the knobs turn and function as intended. There are several small marker labels applied to locations near the filter knobs, etc. as indicators for a former user. The synth is in good working shape, but of course a used 35-45 year old item that may periodically need attention; in my estimation the power supply capacitors would be the first thing you could tend to."

"Everything is working except for the strings 2 section button on the right hand side of the keyboard. You can press down on the strings 2 button but it won't stay down. This auction is an 'as is' auction."
Good price for those that can fix it.
