"Kyle and I were looking through songs that we could cover off the classic Final Fantasy VII. I was hesitant to do some of the more popular ones, just because they have so many covers already when we came upon Cosmo Canyon, and instantly my mind was made up. Red XIII is my favorite character from FFVII, and that area has such deep memories for me. I hope you enjoy our take on Cosmo Canyon."

Rare Vangelis Zyklus MPS (Midi Performance System) with OLED Display Upgrade


via Syn-Fi

"Zyklus MPS (Midi Performance System) with OLED display upgrade (modification). There are only 40 of these in existence and I found this one on eBay, with a dim display but otherwise is very good condition. Back in 1988 this retailed for £1995 and wasn’t well understood and did not therefore enter a big production run. Its basically a ‘midi’ scratchpad in the studio and performance tool for live use. It’s famous because Vangelis hired the inventors of Zyklus, Bill Marshall and and Pete Kellock to develop a system exclusively for him - “Direct” which gave rise to the album 'Direct'.

The Manual is available [original link at Syn-Fi, mirrored here]"

Videos should be coming.

Oberheim OB-1 Sounds


Published on May 20, 2014 SynthDan1·20 videos

"My Oberheim OB-1 was recently serviced by This Old Synth in San Jose, CA. This video is just running through some of the features, including cross-modulation, presets, 12/24 dB/oct filter, modulation sources, sub-oscillators, pulse width modulation, and a few other things.

I found this OB-1 at a shop in Portland, OR, and it had a number of issues. This Old Synth straightened it all out (figuratively and literally) and now she plays like new.

The OB-1 is a cool piece of synthesizer history. It's a monophonic programmable analog synthesizer with two oscillators, each switchable between sawtooth and pulse waveforms, and each with an independent sub-oscillator. Plus discrete electronics, a very early form of programmer, great-sounding 2- and 4-pole switchable filter, and a handful of unique features, all with circuitry that comes straight from the classic Oberheim SEM modules, make this monophonic analog synthesizer worthy of the Oberheim name."

Nord Electro 2 Spotted in 2011 Film New Year's Eve

This one in via swissdoc.

"It is the movie 'New Year's Eve' from 2011 and there are some stage shots from Bon Jovi.
Synth is a Nord Electro 2, the story line in this episode movie is like this (taken from Wikipedia):

Paul's friend, comic book illustrator Randy (Ashton Kutcher), who hates New Year's Eve after his girlfriend left him on a date, gets stuck in an elevator with Elise (Lea Michele), an aspiring singer who will be providing back-up for musician Daniel Jensen (Jon Bon Jovi) in his show at Times Square.

Here's the picture link.

The singer in this picture is said Elise from the story line."

Be sure to see the Synth TV and Film channel for more.

Nord Modular G2 SN MD10178 with Original Box

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

via this auction

"Pitch stick is mechanically buffered with some foam (visible on one photo) which can be fully reversed. The reason is that the Pitch Stick of every G2 keyboard vibrates still a bit when suddenly released and thus generates small amounts of pitch data. The foam stops this. A G2 Modular in this pristine condition is a rarity as production stopped some years ago. Comes with English manual (has the original CD inside) and the original outer box."

VINTAGE KORG SAS-20 with SC-02 Easy Listening Cartridge SN 808230

Includes Compu Music Accompaniment & Rhthm & Auto Accompaniment sections.

via Wikipedia: "1983 - Korg SAS-20: The SAS-20 was Korg’s first arranger keyboard. A built-in computer analyzed the melody played on the keyboard, and generated a complex accompaniment. This was the world’s first auto-accompaniment function of this kind added to a keyboard. Also, a more traditional chord recognition system was included."

Curious what sound engine it had on board. 1983 would put it in time with the Poly-800. You can find an ad for it here.

Modded Korg DW8000 Analog Synthesizer w/ Musitronics Angel City Turbo Upgrade

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

via this auction

via the seller: "This synthesizer works absolutely perfectly and has a few significant upgrades- most notably the rare DW Turbo Expansion from Musitronics / Angel City. This allows for bi-timbral patches (with splitting or layering), a new (really exciting) modulation generator waveform (random S/H!), keyboard transposition, two simultaneous MIDI send/receive channels, patch 'compare' functionality (to hear the saved version of a patch before overwriting with your live patch), and additional patch storage banks!

I also added three switches just under the joystick: portamento push-button, patch up push-button, sustain/hold toggle (great for tuning, performing with drones, etc)."

LektroiD - Chillin' with the Hardware


Published on May 20, 2014 LektroiD·38 videos

"Just received the Alesis IO Dock II in the post, and put this together using Sunrizer for the synth pad sound. TT303 is running via MIDI (it has a surprisingly good MIDI spec). Suitcase synth running from the CV/Gate of the 303 (yes, the TT also sends the pitch slides, just like the TB). SH doing filter percussion, etc, triggered by the gate of the TT303.

808 Pro (TR-808 Clone - not just another Roland Aira TR-8) - Techno jam with Elektron Analog Four


Published on Mar 30, 2014 FKY Kai·1 video

"808 Pro(TR-808 Clone - not just another Roland Aira TR-8) -Techno live jam with Elektron Analog Four and 303 Pro(TB-303 Clone)

808 Pro was designed and hand built by a Chinese DIY synth fan - Puimen. It is not just another clone of Roland TR-808 or another AIRA like VA or vst in a box. It is purely a analog drum machine without providing any internal dsp effect, 909 mod and other unnecessary functions as for a analog synth fan. But it does provide a complete recreation the analog sound of Roland 808 drum machine. Except for the traditional midi and sequence functions, 808 Pro was added in with two digital controlled filter, of which the filter circuit (SSM2044) from famous Korg Mono/Poly. The stereo filter can be step sequential controlled in order to generate step filter stereo effect.

At this moment, Puimen is still testing and modifying 808 Pro. Now it is only engineer sample, no silkscreen, even knobs not fully attached. We hope the machine could be ready for oversea shipment from China in late 2014. Pricing is to be determined yet. But Puimen promised that the pricing should give most of synth fans a great surprise."

Note this is the first 808 Pro & Puimen post.
