Emu SP12 Rare Vintage Drum Machine Sampler

"For sale is an Emu Sp12 Turbo edition with 5 seconds sampling time. This SP12 is in super nice condition overall. It does have a little wear so be sure to check out the detailed pictures below to make sure you like it. The backlight still has some life in it, not super bright but it's still there. You can read the screen fine in a well lit room. I just serviced all the buttons/pads so they are triggering smoothly. Everything is 100% fully functional. The SP12 sounds awesome! It's the best way to get the SP1200 same 12-bit sound quality at half the price, with 5 second sampling time and cool 80s style built in drums sounds. Includes power cable. Also included is a commodore drive and some original SP12 disks. I haven't tested the commodore drive or the disks, so those items are included as extra and sold as-is, but they are cool collectibles at least..."

OSCar Oxford Synthesizer Company Rare Vintage Monophonic Analog Synth SN 0180

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

via this auction

"For sale here is a rare OSCar Oxford Synthesiser Company. Includes a very nice fitting custom hard case (it will still be double boxed for shipping) and original manual. This OSCar has midi and is 100% fully functional. Cosmetically it's in great shape. It sounds AMAZING, with a huge set of features for the time, including programmable harmonic waveforms, patch memory, sequencer, an awesome arpeggiator, duophonic capabilities (yes you can play two notes at once) along with one of the best filters I have ever played, allowing for LP, BP, HP, overdrive capabilities. Huge bass, leads, effects unlike anything else. One of my favorite monophonic synthesizers of all time, & I've played them all, from Minimoogs to Arp Odysseys to Synton Syrinx. If I had to describe the sound I would say it's instant Boards of Canada, smooth, bubbly, analog with an aggressive Aphex Twin side that can get gritty & rough."

Acidlab Miami Analog Drum Machine

"For sale here is an Acidlab Miami. I love this drum machine. I've owned more than a few Roland TR808 and after getting the Acidlab I sold my 808, that's how good this Miami is. It sounds even better in some ways, plus you get modern functionality like midi and advanced programming capabilities all in a smaller size without the vintage gear headaches. Really great machine for the value. This one was a spare back-up machine & hardly ever used. It's in MINT perfect shape & fully functional. Check out the pictures below. Includes power supply for 110v operation. If you can't afford a real 808 or want to deal with hassle of vintage gear, this is the next best thing. Don't miss out!.."

Arp 2600 Rare Vintage Analog Synth + 3620 Keyboard

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

via this auction

"For sale is a rare Arp 2600 synthesizer with the more advanced duophonic 3620 keyboard. There is quite a bit of wear to this one, so be sure to check out the pictures to make sure you like it. While it has seen better days, functionally it is in superb condition. It was reportedly serviced by the previous owner (sorry I don't have the records for servicing) but I have fully tested it and it is 100% fully functional. The only issue I could detect is the pulse waveform on Oscillator 3 is not functioning. The sawtooth section of Oscillator 3 is functioning, so it might just be a simple fix though I can't be sure. Otherwise everything else functions as it should. The keyboard keys all trigger perfectly and play smoothly. Includes original manual and some patch cables."

Roland SVC-350 Vocoder

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

via this auction

"The SVC350 is similar to vocoder section in the VP330, but in a smaller rack form. Yet unlike the VP330, the SVC350 has graphic EQ section that allows you to shape the tone with more control than a VP330 does. This is a classic sounding vocoder, really awesome with vocals and synthesizers but especially cool when paired with drum machines, guitars and effects..."

Patch Notes #23 - Quad Turing Machine Mode in Ornament & Crime


Published on Oct 14, 2016 Voltage Control Lab

"Testing the deeper functions in Quantermain mode in Ornament & Crime, the quad turing machine mode to be precise! This is an extremely useful and exciting module.

A clock coming from Make Noise Tempi, which is sequencing the 0-Coast. The 0-Coast is routed to the Mutable Instruments Warps for some delay through the Parasites alt firmware, and on to the Malekko Mix4.

Tempi is also clocking the Malekko Varigate 4. One channel is triggering the Slope section in the 0-Coast, which is not modulating the 0-Coast, but rather shaping the kick drum routing inside the Roland Scooper which is also routed on to the Mix4.

Another channel on the Varigate is routed to trigger the Noise Engineering Basimilus Iteritas. All 4 channels on the Ornament & Crime are modulating functions on the BI: pitch, decay, morph and fold. All 4 channels are triggered by Tempi at the TR1 input.

Make Noise René is also receiving clock from Tempi, sending it's QCV out to the DPO, and Xgate out to the Malekko ADLFO. The DPO final out is sent to the Optomix, and then out from the mix output to the Mix4. One channel on the ADLFO is routed to the Optomix channel to open LPG, another is controlling FM depth between the oscillators on the DPO.

The Roland System 1m is played live via the Qunexus keyboard, routed out through the Aux input on the Optomix.

Darkstar & Sharplines - Moog Sub 37, Prophet 6 & Novation Circuit

Darkstar - Moog Sub 37, Prophet 6 & Novation Circuit

Published on Oct 14, 2016 Phoenix-Flare

"I performed this a the recent Bristol Synth Meet, but the camera memory ran out and I have redone it at home.
It's an idea me and Chris are working on and should turn into a full song at some point.

The midi sync is working well now, so the Circuit is sending midi clock to the moog, then the prophet to keep the beating LFO in time, then on to the TC electronics delay to keep the echos in beat."

Sharplines - Moog Sub 37, Prophet 6 & Novation Circuit

Published on Oct 14, 2016 Phoenix-Flare

I performed this at the recent Bristol Synth Meet, but the camera memory ran out and I have redone it at home.

My singer Chris is working out some words for this so it should develop further.

This was fun playing live as playing the moog keyboard triggered the arpeg on the Moog and the strings on the Prophet, but playing the Prophet keyboard just played the strings, so flicking between the keys with each hand produced some pleasing changes.

I'm using a control pedal on the Prophet to open the filter. The wheel on the Moog does a LFO pitch shift of oscillator 2 with it in sync mode - lovely sound."

via this auction

Note the listing states this was essentially a Prophet-600 with multitrack controls and it has SSM filters. That is not correct. It has the same synth engine as the Multi-Trak and it uses CEM filters. The Prophet-600 also had CEM filters. The only Sequential Circuits synth to have SSM filters was the Prophet-5 Rev 1 & 2. You can see a listing of what synths used what chips on Wikipedia here.

QU-Bit Electronix Rhythm Demo ft. Chord, Octone, & Expert Sleepers Disting


Published on Oct 14, 2016 Century Sound Labs

http://www.reverb.com/shop/centurysou...

"As you can see, Rhythm can be used for much more than just drums! In this patch, channels 1 and 2 of Rhythm are triggering Expert Sleepers Distings in Envelope VCA mode. The root and 7th notes from Chord are fed through these VCAs and sent on to a final L-1 Tube VCA mixer to be combined with the Chord module. The third output of Rhythm is triggering the CV input of the tube VCA, imparting a psuedo-kick sound to the mix.

The Octone on the left is sending 1v/oct CV to Chord. It is passively multiplied using the TipTop stackable cable to the Inversion CV input on Chord, causing a pleasing detune effect from the resultant loading.

The Octone on the right is synced to the first Octone, and is triggered at 1/8th the speed. It is sequencing the pattern selection for Rhythm, so every time the 8 chord phrase comes around, it selects another different pattern to play.

The mix is then sent into the Universal Audio Apollo 8 first through the Moog LPF to add some dirt with its drive function, then onto the Neve 1073 preamp and Studer A800 tape emulator for further thickening. It is then compressed using the Fairchild 660 to add some tube glue.

On Send A is the Cooper Time Cube delay and on Send B is the EMT 140 plate reverb.

In the mixdown, the track runs through the Steven Slate VCC in RCA Tube Console mode, then through the Manley Vari-Mu compressor and Massive Passive Mastering EQ. Finally, the mix is tapped off on 7.5ips with the Ampex ATR-102 emulator and lightly limited with the A.O.M. Invisible Limiter."
