Roland Jupiter 6 Vintage Polyphonic Analogue Synthesizer

"This synth is a beast. 6 Voices with 2 CEM Oscillators per voice, Epic Roland filters, Arpeggiator, loads of memory, 2 ADSR, 2 LFO!! Plus much more! All to be expected from one of Roland's biggest and most epic Analogue synth Keyboards of the 80's.

It sounds brilliant. Capable of huge basslines and stacked leads, luscious strings and pads, blippy analogue sounds and everything in between. It is a real workhorse. It also includes the factory midi connections so you can adapt it simply and easily into your modern production setup. No need for further mods or kits.

Physical condition of this unit is very good. All the paintwork and colours are nice and shiny and fresh as you can see in the pics. There is no major rust or damage to the metalwork or paintwork. It has a few signs of wear and tear such as slight scuffs etc on the paint but this is to be expected... Overall condition is very good, and very clean inside and out.
This unit is 240V so suitable for use in Australia.

Everything on this JP-6 is working perfectly and it has been thoroughly serviced bringing it right up to spec. It has undergone our usual high standard of service which includes the following work -

- All electrolytic capacitors replaced on the power supply and voice boards. This significantly improves stability and performance of the whole machine. Probably around 70 capacitors were replaced in total with high quality modern Panaosnic and Nichicon parts. Many of the old ones were dried up and bad so it really shows the need for replacement.

- All internal connectors cleaned/de-oxidised. I have noticed previously on JP-6's that they suffer from intermittent connections resulting in VCO instability or intermittent voices. This step prevents that from occurring now and in future.

- All Sliders, switches, pots working perfectly and without error or noise. They have been cleaned/lubed where necessary.

-Brand new Panasonic battery for memory storage.

- All functions tested and working.

- Restored factory patches. The original Roland sounds have been restored for you to use.

- Full tune up and calibration according to Roland factory spec."

Modcan Dual Freqshifter - Eurorack Synthesizer Module

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

via this auction

"the dual freq shifter is an all digital interpretation of the classic bode design with numerous significant benefits over its analogue predecessor, primarily the dual configuration.

there are probably only a handful of vintage bode fss in the hands of users that are ever within factory specs at any given time due to complicated and costly calibration procedure. with the dual frequency shifter calibration will never be an issue and will remain an accurate and precise instrument regardless of ambient temperature or age.

frequency shifting is primarily a mathematical function and nothing does maths better than a dsp capable microprocessor. no analogue circuit comes close for feed-thru error free multiplication, high image rejection and vco stability.

another important consideration is that it would be both cost and space prohibitive to implement a matched set of dual fs in analogue with similar features and performance especially in 12hp.

the real fun begins when the two independent fs sections are patched in series or as independent stereo processors. this allows for some seriously altered stereo effects with near 3d results.

features:
2 independent frequency shifter channels in one package
cv control of feedback for each channel
cv control of shift for each channel
clip indicators
+/-5khz exponential shift range
+/-5khz linear shift range
thru-zero operation
high quality codec
16bit audio
zero calibration maintenance
20hz-20khz response
modest current consumption
width 12hp
firmware by eric brombaugh

specs:
sample rate: 48khz
sample resolution: 16-bit
output: typical +/-5v @1kohms
input: typical +/-5v @100kohms

This time I'm using three layers splitted on the keyboard, first one is scanning a custom wavetable in seq to simulate a kind of Pygmy chant, second one is doing a filter sweep in seq and gives an harmo feel. The last one features several 'solo' sounds, My playing is an humble and modeste tribute to my master Mr Joe Zawinul. Hope you enjoy this 'Elephant crying sound' at the end of the Impro.

"This is what happens, when two Synth-Heads take a long weekend off and move out of their homes, to jam a little. The tracks were fully improvised, only the song tempo (via MIDI clock), the tonal scale and a few sounds have been set. Everything else just happened.

Equipment used by Wirehead:
- elektron analog four
- elektron octatrack
- Clavia Nord Lead 4

Equipment used by me:
- Korg Monotribe
- Waldorf Rocket
- Alesis SR16

The Moog Synth Installation at Rough Trade NYC Hosts Sound Experiments Curated By Tom Tom Magazine with Kiran Gandhi (M.I.A.), Chloe Saavedra (Chaos Chaos) and More Thursday, March 20th

"RSVP To Tom Tom's Sound Experiments HERE.

In celebration of Bob Moog's spirit of innovation and creative experimentation, Moog has installed a Synthesizer Residency inside of Rough Trade NYC at 64 N 9th Street in Brooklyn for the month of March. The installation at Rough Trade is Moog's next step on the way to Moogfest, the innovative festival taking place in Asheville, NC April 23 - 27.

The installation is free and open to the public. This Thursday, March 20th, features sound experiments from Brooklyn-based artists curated by Tom Tom Magazine [8:00 – 11:00PM], including:

Kiran Gandhi :: MIA
Suzi Analogue :: Suzi Analogue
Léah Lazonick :: Léah Lazonick
FonLin Nyeu :: Dragons of Zynth
Sean Desiree :: Bells Roar
Jesse Gold
Shelley Burgon
Lola Johnson
Monika Heidemann :: HEIDEMANN
Lauren Camarata
Gabriela Jimeno :: Balancer
Chloe Saavedra :: Chaos Chaos
Caitlin Frame

For 25 days in March, Rough Trade NYC is housing the world's largest modern Moog installation as a mile-marker on the road to Moogfest, and Moog invites all artists in the area to stop by and utilize the space for experimentation and discovery. The residency serves as a physical manifestation of the intersection of music, art and technology, and it is meant to be used as an artist's resource. Although it is free to the public, this is no museum exhibit- visitors are encouraged to interact, engage and experiment with the analog electronics. All are welcome to craft sound as well as bring a recording device to sample the instruments.

All instruments in the installation were hand built in Asheville, NC at the Moog factory. Throughout the installation, Moog employees will be on hand at Rough Trade NYC to assist artist's with the gear.

Stephen Godfroy, Co-Owner of Rough Trade, says of the installation “With our shared love of musical experimentation and innovation, Moog are perfect bedfellows for us. Being able to create and host world-class experiences like this is precisely what Rough Trade NYC is all about; is precisely why New York can safely claim to have the most exciting record store on the planet.”

The installation includes a producers station, drone towers, 10 voice polyphonic analog synth, 6 voice Minimoog drum synth, and over 50 analog effects boxes.

Future sound experiments will take place throughout the duration of the installation, including appearances by Delicate Steve on March 25th presented by Luaka Bop; Dorit Chrysler and Rob Schwimmer on March 28th presented by The New York Theremin Society; Telecult Powers on March 29th presented by Ad Hoc; Gavin Russom on March 29th; and Anna Barie of These Are Powers on a date TBA.

One free ticket to Moogfest, the innovative festival taking place in Asheville NC April 23-27, will be given away every day of the installation.

The residency is open to the public from 11am-11pm daily through March 29th."

Clavia Nord Modular G2 Editor for iOS, Android, Windows & Mac


via Francesco Synth Meeting Mulassano on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge, via Noisecollective

Details: G2 editor FMX via G2Dev here and here.

"This is the new editor I’m working on. I’ve given it the working title “G2 editor FMX”. FMX stands for the “Firemonkey” framework of the new Delphi compilers which is a vector based graphics framework.

This editor might be useable on a touch screen monitor or mobile device. Might be, because I haven’t been able to really test it yet on a touch screen and also with the mobile devices other than those based on Windows there is the USB issue.

The back end of this editor, which handles the communication with the G2 hardware is the same as the previous editor, but I’ve redesigned the graphical user interface and also I’ve adapted the source code so it compiles for all the supported target platforms of Delphi Xe5: Windows 32/64, Osx, iOS and Android. So it will compile, but on iOS and Android I’ve not been able to activate the USB connection.

I’ve tested it on a couple different computers and operating systems:

Windows XP : works, but graphics are not great
Windows 7 : works, graphics a bit better not as good as Windows 8
Windows 8/81 : works, graphics are good
OSX Snow leopard : works, graphcs are good
Android : haven’t been able to get usb working, graphics not great
iOS : tested once on the emulator, no usb, slow and graphics where not great (it’s the emulator though..).
You can download the latest version here. If you want to try out the editor, please read the help file first."

"Good Condition

All presets works
All notes work

Had replacement power switch

New VCF installed by Phil at CMS a few years back. The new filter is the CMS brand. Some cracked PCB traces were recently fixed as the bad traces were causing some of the presets not to function. All function as they should now. Slider posts are broken off. I use a small pencil to adjust. The slider board could be positioned closer to the chassis or the shafts/sliders replaced for easier use of the sliders. These are rare and hardly come up for sale. Touch Sensitivity option is not working. These early models used pads that wore out rather quickly. Other options are available and I can recommend a good tech if you would like to explore them. "
