RF Nomad: Atomic Shadow Edition 5U Synth Module Status Update
Evaton Technologies RF Nomad: Atomic Shadow Edition Faceplate Teaser
Published on Dec 6, 2015 Russ Hoffman
http://www.evatontechnologies.com/
"The first major step in the progress on the production version of the RFN:ASE synth module is complete -- mechanical design of the faceplate and PCB carrier mechanical outline.
The PCB carrier will house a PCB from a Eurorack version of the RF Nomad, and provide power connector conversion to allow the Eurorack board to be plugged into 5U power.
I've posted up this quick video animation of the 3D CAD model as it stands today.
Consulting Artist, Atomic Shadow, (www.atomicshadow.com) helped to transform the popular RF Nomad Eurorack module into 5U format. Hundreds of Eurorack customers already enjoy the eerie sounds of the RF Nomad Shortwave Receiver module; soon 5U musicians will, too!
The RF Nomad: Atomic Shadow Edition (RFN:ASE) is going to be made in a short production run, the number of which is to be determined by interest expressed on the Evaton Technologies 5U signup form.
Also, please watch for Atomic Shadow's new album, "Shortwave Robot Pants," which features the prototype RF Nomad: Atomic Shadow Edition module."

"This particular unit is in excellent cosmetic condition and working order; sounds and plays amazing! Fully serviced by Switched On Electronics in Austin, Texas, this unit is fully calibrated, rebushed, and ready to play. Features a 4-Pole VCF, CV IN/TRIG/GATE/OUT; absolutely legendary sounds. MUCH warmer tone, better playing, and less clinical sounding than the cheap made in China Korg reissues. This one has the 2nd 4075 MKII/III filter as compared to my Solus holds up just as well in the upper frequency spectrum.
This particular unit has been fully serviced, tuned, and calibrated. It has received a full rebush job with Pratt-Reed bushings. Overall, hundreds of dollars have been put into this synthesizer for restoration and upkeep to ensure it plays and sounds as good as it possibly can. Some sliders have also been replaced with Old-Stock ARP sliders for authenticity-sake. Includes original ARP footswitch and custom-fit heavy duty Cabbage Case roadcase."

Sri Chinmoy's Synthesizer Symphony
Published on Dec 6, 2015
What is that?
"Compiled with footage from 9 peace concerts that spiritual teacher and musician Sri Chinmnoy (1931-2007) gave in Germany in 2005. Sri Chinmoy usually played the synthesizer as the highlight of the evening. The video also contains some Jharna-Kala art reproductions also created by Sri Chinmoy. These pictures were shown on a big screen behind the stage during the performances. Filmed and edited by Kedar Misani. Length: 49:23 min."
via Wikipedia: "Chinmoy Kumar Ghose, better known as Sri Chinmoy[1] (27 August 1931 – 11 October 2007), was an Indian spiritual master who taught meditation in the West after moving to New York City in 1964.[2] Chinmoy established his first meditation center in Queens, New York, and eventually had thousands of students in 60 countries.[3][4][5] A prolific author, artist, poet, and musician, he also held public events such as concerts and meditations on the theme of inner peace.[6][7] Chinmoy also advocated athleticism to achieve spiritual enlightenment, including distance running, swimming, and weightlifting. He organized marathons and other races, and was an active runner and, following a knee injury, weightlifter.[6][7]"

As you know Hannett was the man to first introduce synths into punk and post punk records, He convinced Joy Division and Durutti Column to put synths on their records from 1978/1979 onwards - he produced records many featuring his synth ideas Buzzcocks, Magazine,Nico,Pauline Murray, John Cooper Clarke,Stone Roses, U2, Happy Mondays. Comes with a copy of Hannett's schematics for the synth and provenance note"

Micro Arp 2600 Clone Broadwave u2K6 Hand Built Modular Synth
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
via the seller: "For Sale is an ARP 2600 Clone known as a BroadWAVE u2K6 hand built by Andy @ Broadwave & I purchased it from him.
Below is the original info from Andy when I purchase it:
Up for Auction is a handbuilt BroadWAVE u2K6 (Micro ARP 2600). It is a one-off unit made as a pre-production to an ARP 2600 clone that I have recently completed.
Please note that you will require a MIDI to CV converter to use this synth.

It's built into a Tolexed 19" 6U cabinet with strap handle... as yet, I have no idea how to pack this for the courier - don't be surprised it it turns up in a suitcase.
Almost all of the internal circuits are copied directly from the ARP 2600 - the exception being the VCF, LFO and Dual AR envelope generators which are direct copies from the ARP Odyssey.

Vintage 1979 Sequential Circuits Model 700 Programmer SN 0142
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
Pics of the inside below. Note the art on the circuit board. Looks like two dudes poking cells. If anyone knows what it is and/or where it comes from feel free to comment.

"You are looking at a vintage 1979 Sequential Circuits Model 700 Programmer, used to add 64 patch memories to an analog synthesizer. No small feat in the days before synthesizers had built-in patch memory! Sequential only produced a couple hundred of these programmers and as a result, they are extremely rare and very hard to find, especially in this condition! According to the circuit board, this is a mk 2, rev 1 variation of the original, adding a single cable connection to the synth you wish to control. To the best of my knowledge, this programmer is fully functional. I purchased it years ago from a gentleman who demonstrated it for me and everything was working at the time. Unfortunately, I no longer have any synthesizer gear to test it with. I can say that it does power up and that all 8 tactile switches respond properly, with their respective LEDs lighting. The 2 digit screen at the center of the programmer lights brightly, just as it should, and changing positions on the memory bank rotary switch and pressing the tactile buttons change digits on this screen just as they should. All knobs and switches have a firm feel to them, no sticking or sponginess of any kind. Cosmetically, I feel the photos speak for themselves. This one is in EXCELLENT cosmetic condition, with the front and top panel showing no signs of flaking or corrosion whatsoever. Wooden sides are in excellent condition as well. Rear panel and bottom show some VERY minor paint flaking, but no actual damage, and nothing that will cause this flaking to become worse or spead. Circuit boards are in excellent condition with no damage at all. I will remove and replace the old 3v battery inside prior to shipping, as it is more than ready to come out. Depending on when this programmer sells, it may take me a few extra days to replace this battery. If the purchaser would prefer not to wait for a battery replacement, I will happily ship with the old battery removed."
