short and thick does the trick

"These are the last two of the original design. I used the CTS pots on them, so the shafts were short enough to accept the big knobs."

Homebrew step sequencer, "Stepper Acid"

via Zoë

"My partner (Nina, who took this picture last year: http://m.matrixsynth.com/2011/12/idow-matrixsynth-modular-pic-of-week_26.html ) and myself have started work on building an acidline step sequencer together. It's in the early prototype stages at the moment, so there's no interface, just a preset pattern, but it's already starting to sound pretty good hooked up to our Doepfer! The project is open source, for both hardware and software, so anybody can see how it works and cannibalise it into their own open source projects.

"Din Sync "DrumDokta" DRM-110 drum machine module for Eurorack modular synthesizers. It is a clone of the vintage Roland DR-110 drum machine. The DR-110 was always thought of as the cheap gritty version of a TR-808. This module adds several new and exciting features to the usually limited Roland DR-110. An absolute beast of a drum module for Eurorack, and only about half the size of an actual DR-110!"

1961 R. A. Moog Melodia Theremins

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

Two separate listings. Pics and descriptions for each follow.

via this auction: "This Moog Melodia is in as close to mint condition as you could hope for, I even have the original box post marked 1961!
All original parts including the hard to find original antenna (usually this part would get lost through the years) This theremin works perfectly and sounds amazing as you would expect from a vintage Bob Moog design. This was the first of his discrete transistor kits. In my opinion this one has better quality wood for the cabinet as compared to a few others I have owned in the past.

The Melodia is a Moog Theremin that was originally made available in 1960-61 in both kit form and assembled. It could be assembled with a few hand tools and featured a walnut cabinet .The Moog Melodia theremin has a five-octave range, extending from two octaves below to three octaves above Middle C. This one is in almost new condition and fully operational.

P.S. It is configured to use 4 AA batteries as the original 6v that was clipped in the center is no longer manufactured. You can see the addition of the battery case on the under side of the lid above the circuit area."

"100% fully working Korg Delta top-octave divide-down polyphonic analog Vintage synth (1979)

Cosmetically in very good condition (some small scratches and marks).

Comes with custom wood end parts installed. Made from high quality exotic silver birch hard wood. Its so much stronger than the original plastic parts and in my opinion its also a much nicer look.

It also has had 90% of it electrolytic capacitors replaced as well as various ic's.

This is a lovely synth ,with a synth section and a string section. Its very easily capable of making great sounds and the filter on it is very nice (same filter chip as the MS 20 ) .

Also available is an original custom hard-case for $75USD (to cover the extra weight in shipping)"
