Stand-Alone Oberheim Mini Sequencer with Mods

"A working Oberheim Mini Sequencer. Each knob in the Control Voltage Preset area has two parts, upper knob and lower knob, the uppers are for Seq 1 and the lowers for for Seq 2. On the original design, Seq 1 and Seq 2 have their own independent outputs, both working. This particular unit has been modified so that both sequences are also CV output through the 'OUT' on the front panel, and you can switch between both using the '1/1' switch just above the 'OUT'. Please see photo. This mod works great, and is fun.

There is an additional mod called 'RESET' on the front panel, which I have never tried.

I used this with a minimoog, and it works great. I tried using it with an ARP AXXE, and the ARP CLOCK seems to have been disable in order to make one of the mods work.

But aside from the ARP CLOCK not working and the RESET mod untested, the rest works great.

Like I said, I used this to drive my minimoog - and you can also use the EXT CLOCK to sync with the TRIG OUT of a TR-909. So you can have a TR-909 driving the Oberheim Mini Sequencer driving a Minimoog. It's a blast!"
