www.atomicshadow.com An improvisation featuring the MU ring Modulator from Krisp1, two Hewlett Packard series 200 sine wave generators and the El Capistan tape echo pedal from Strymon.
This ring mod was based on the Arp2500/2600 design. According to the Krisp1 website- "Each input has its own differing non-linearities or imperfections. This greatly adds to the character of the resultant output."
I think that is correct. Turning up the input levels create interesting changes in the timbre of the output. This is a ring modulator with a ton of personality.
"Found while looking through evidence of my past circa 1982 .
Top to bottom:
Casio VL-Tone VL-1 Yamaha CS01 (notice the Breath Control dangling from the right.) Electro Harmonix MINI-SYNTHESIZER
Now to find the recordings made with the Yamaha MT 4track cassette recorder. Also had an Electro Harmonics SUPER SPACE DRUM and Boss DR 55. Sold all but the VL- tone and I use it regularly."

"Not really a synthesizer, this is a kind of patch generator which hooks up via MIDI to the TX81Z and you can use the switches to determine the type of randomization. No manual, the manufacturer didn't supply one, I think they think it's so easy to use (which it is)..."

via this auction "his is a non-working unit (early serial #0491) sold “As-Is” for repair or parts. The unit powers up and the red “GATE” light turns on, but only UFO-like noises can be achieved by tweaking the knobs and switches. No actual instrument sounds can be heard or played on the keys. Physical damages include: 2 tears in the power cord (near the board and also near the plug as pictured), 2 keys are slightly raised (damaged bushings?), and one of the mod wheels has been removed and broken in half. The mod wheel pieces will be included and may be able to be super-glued or repaired. There are normal wear & tear cosmetic damages such as scuffs and scratches, and knicks on the side panels, etc. But note that all knobs and switches are in tact. View all of the included photos to see the details mentioned above..."

"Hello – This ESQ-1 was used to produce several children’s albums back in the day before I inherited it. Since then, it was primarily used as a MIDI-controller in my own production set-up. It does have its share of cosmetic scuffs and blemishes, but it’s built like a tank and everything is in working condition including all keys, buttons, and the LCD screen. However, it will require an internal battery to be replaced. When powered up, it displays “Warning - Battery Voltage Is Low”. The purpose of the internal battery is to save the sequences and patches in memory when powered off."

"Vintage Juno 6 analog synth that someone decorated. All the functions work but there is no indication of what the controls do on the front due to the paint job. Sounds great and works well."

"5 Space rack mount. Awesome synth with classic Novation sound. All the same sliders and knob controls as the keyboard versions. Very easy to program, sounds great, pads, drones, leads, basses… Very versatile synth. Awesome arpeggiator. On board FX. Delay, Reverb, Distortion, Chorus, Eq, Panning, and Vocoder. Tested and working 100%! Good physical condition, but missing 2 knobs and the attack slider. No power cord, but it takes a generic 3 prong power cord..."

"Had this in my studio for a while with no problems. Sold it about a month ago, buyer reported odd noises. Took it back and did not experience his problems, but the midi channel select only works on chan.1.
So if you can live with that you have a cool little synth.
Sold AS IS, as seen, no returns. I am not a music store."

"Pictures make up most of the description as does THIS MP3, recorded from the line out. I haven't cleaned the keyboard or the stylus much. When I cleaned off all the corrosion a few years ago, it played a bit better than this.
The vibrato switch is physically wonky, and doesn't particularly make any vibrato effect at the moment, which is a physical defect rather than an electronic one. The Vibrato, like a Stylophone, functions by making the upper (or lower) "horizontal" side of the waveform vary in length, thus altering pitch and pulse width simultaneously, which accounts for their unique sound."
"Here is an 8 step sequence using the monosynth from the OTO Biscuit, dubbed DER OTO. I've been wanting to release a video demonstrating the madness that this machine has to offer.The sequencer has adjustable steps from 1-16, I just used 8 for the competition. This is a video submission for the Vacoloco Gorf 8 Step Sequence Challenge."
"Just messing around with the new Red Panda Particle Delay with a really simple drum looping. It is pretty outrageous and original, but my favorite feature is the Auto triggered freeze, which is the best I've run across. What a great idea for a delay: the freeze mode captures a segment of audio and loops it indefinitely until the next sound arrives. More to follow."
"This video was made for the VacoLoco Gorf 8 Step Sequencer Competition, and to show off the awesome Analogue Solutions Leipzig-S. !!! Voltage Controlled !!!"

"Another nice fugue of Handel on YUSYNTH modular synth played by Daniel Philipp Stotz. More info see http://www.danielphilippstotz.info/ More fugues of Handel will maybe come out if I will find a good distribution. To record fugues in this way, takes a lot of time, but gives the great possibility to have different sounds for every voice of the fugue."

"This Yamaha cs-10 has custom wood sides installed. Cosmteically the synth is very good except for a small dent on the back middle (see photos below). 100% fully working. A very nice monophonic analog synth with a very easy signal flow and great tweak-ability. Best for fat bass lines , leads and atmospheric sounds . Has a very nice filter resonance and an excellent slow to very fast LFO which goes right into the audio range."

Extras
xoxbox added a couple extra modes to make the x0xb0x more fun than the rest:
* Random mode: fill a pattern bank with random notes, or have it just play random notes
* Keyboard mode: just like those casios you had as a kid. Press the keys and sound comes out!
* Rotary encoder tempo knob: for finer control over the tempo, or you can set the tempo via computer control mode
* Firmware upgradable: the C code is written for AVR-gcc, any Mac/Linux/Windows computer can be used to recompile new code for the x0xb0x. Reprogram using the x0xb0x software with USB. Mess something up? You can always revert back to the original firmware.
