Carl Matthews was one of the early pioneers in the UK electronic/synthesist movement in the 70’s and 80’s producing cassette releases via Mirage, Electronical Dreams and various compilations. Recently he had a track featured on the compilation 'On The Noise Floor' (Cherry Red Records), and 'Winters Past', a remastered release of his early cassette years."
"This is a crazy little gate delay module I decided I needed to add to the demo rack. It won't be manufactured (probably) but I'm going to post the software and info's so anyone able can build it.
Of course if they can build this from scratch then they probably would have already done so?
Why so fast? I wanted to flex my designer muscle with a challenge and really did pull this off. It was actually only 2.5 days because I couldn't start until I was back from the mainland after noon on the second day.
OCD? Well perhaps with the features..
SO this module has 8 totally different modes:
A. 0-Dual Gate Delay Mode 3:10
B. 1-Dual Long Delay Mode 6:27
C. 2-Dual Clock Divider Mode 9:44
D. 3-Dual Gate Recorder/Looper Mode 13:43
E. 4-Logic Mode 15:33
F. 5-Dual Variable Gate Length Mode 17:41
G. 6-Dual Burst Pulse Generator 21:33
H. 7-Dual Preset Gate Sequences Mode 24:26
I had some fun with this video because it's not an actual product so could let loose a bit ha ha! I think doing the vid took longer than the module..

Recovery Effects and Devices "Jupiter Spirits" Eurorack Oscillator Demo
Published on Apr 12, 2019 recoverysounds
"Demo of the 'Jupiter Spirits' 4 voice Eurorack oscillator from Recovery Effects and Devices."
"Jupiter Spirits orbits around the engine of many legendary synths of the 1970s, the classic CEM3340 chip. It is inspired by our love of the oscillator sections of the Moog designed Crumar Spirit, Roland Jupiter, and SH-101.
Four independent voices produce triangle and sawtooth waveforms creating 8 total outputs, generating thick, rich, analog voices. Jupiter Spirits is the ideal tool for those looking for multiple sound sources in a small package.
Hand-wired in Seattle, Washington. 12hp, 42mm deep. Includes a limited lifetime warranty."
"The Moogseum is proud and honored to announce its exhibition of the iconic Moog synthesizer prototype, which will begin on August 14thas part of the Moogseum’s grand opening celebration Moogmentum: Synthesizing Innovation, Music, and Creativity. The historic prototype, originally belonging to pioneering synthesist and co-collaborator of the instrument, Herb Deutsch, will be on loan to the Moogseum from The Henry Ford, based in Detroit, Michigan."

"An excellent example of the classic Korg MS-20. Mark 1 / Korg 35 chip MS-20 which some (including us) prefer – more aggressive at higher resonance settings."
"SKULPT showing off some pads while CRAFTsynth 2.0 sings a dreamy arp. There's a 008R providing some bass and some sneaky width added to the pads by a 002R in this weeks Jam."
"For the next video in our Start Making series, we headed to the coast to sample a load of sounds to make a Tech House track, using only a Launchpad Pro and what comes in the box. In this video, we took our samples from the sea, a gate and a dog... yep! Check it out.
What do you get with Launchpad Pro?
The sounds in the video are sampled using an iPhone and input into Ableton Live Lite, alongside the Bass Station plug-in, V-Station plug-in and an XLN Addictive Keys Instrument (one from a choice of four!).
"'Spectral Trip' for the hardware synthesizer Novation Peak (V 1.2 or later) is a sound set with 64 presets. The focus is on hybrid sounds with extensive use of the wavetables. It's an inspiring pack for many styles of electronic music. You can watch how to use the buttons Animate 1+2.

This one is clearly for parts. Posting for the pics of the opening on the back. The knobs/pots are perpendicular to the front panel. Fascinating if not a bizarre design choice vs. your standard knobs resting on the front panel.
"I’m selling my trusty ARP Odyssey synthesizer which has served me well over these past seven years.
I had some work done to it by an expert in Maine in 2012. However, they told me that it would need more work done and right now, I can’t afford those further repairs.
Usually this will get in tune after a good 45 minutes of warming up. That being said, several times, it’s hard to get a sound out of it and sometimes, the same notes come out of it despite various keys. The keyboard itself could do with a full overhaul.
I’ve included the receipt for the work that was done in 2012 for your reference.
The unit itself is in good condition with no dings or dents. It also comes with the foot pedal switch. I’m also including copies of the owner’s manual and service manual.
Please be aware that shipping will NOT be cheap given that I will have this professionally packed up to ensure it reaches you safely."
Not sure what the 905 refers to. D#3 could mean 3rd revision? If you know feel free to comment. Just thought it was interesting. The Moog 905 was a spring reverb module in the original Moog System 55 Modular and is featured in the Moog Grandmother.
"Made between 1982 and 1984, the Roland TB-303 is an analog bass synthesizer capable of producing sequenced bass lines. Originally intended to accompany studio musicians in place of a bassist, it soon found a different use providing the squelching bass lines of acid house music, particularly due to its transistor-based resonant low-pass filter. With a DIN Sync24 input, CV/Gate functionality, and a unique step sequencer with slide, swing, and accent functions, the Roland TB-303 creates an unforgettable and unique bass sound"
Roland System 100 Model 101 - Boxed *Soundgas Serviced*
"Roland System-100 Model-101 Analogue Synthesizer in timewarp condition. Supplied fully serviced and working perfectly. Complete with original box and manuals.
NOTE: This item is awaiting service and will ship within 15 working days of purchase. Price includes the fitting of a new 120 or 240v transformer (synth is currently 100v).
Stunning example of one of the best Roland monosynths from the classic Roland era. Uncommon in any condition but super-rare to find one with all packing/manuals."
"Short vid insipired from my evil cat during the nightSounds From Elka Synthex, Moog Minimoog D and Yamaha DX5 ! A big respect to master John Carpenter."
"This is a quick a demo of the Benard Mega Bundle Volume 1, which contains 45 modules for Cherry Audio's Voltage Modular. Many of the modules in this bundle are also shown in the video for Volume 2."
"An ambient jam session with my new reface CP, accompanied with a drone on the Blofeld. And a lot of reverb, of course. ;)
I hope you like it! :D
================================
For those interested in the setup:
The reface CP sends a MIDI signal to the Waldorf Blofeld.
Audio is routed from the Blofeld to the Aux In of the CP, from the CP to the Specular Tempus and on to my audio interface, where it is recorded.
To start the drone I am using the same trick as in "The Night Above The Clouds":
I play a chord and then turn off MIDI receiption on the Blofeld, so that it ignores the "Note Off" command when I let go of the keys.
Then I fade the CP in and continue jamming with the e-piano sound.
Unfortunately, there where some audio dropouts in the recording. I somewhat got to fix them, but I'm afraid they might still be noticeable from time to time. Sorry 'bout that. :(

The CVilizationist HeadphonesMix Published on Aug 9, 2019 Urs Heckmann
"This is a special mix using Sennheiser Ambeo software to recreate the spatial depth of the original quadraphonic mix.
All sequencing and quantization (time & pitch) is done using one CVilization in Mode III (with a tiny bit of help from Brains + PressurePoints). A second CVilization mixes and animates four voices of melody and percussion in its quadraphonic panning mode (Mode IV).
Some of the live action apart from mixing, filtering, triggering and sound design is recording new sequences into CVilization, and setting mutation depths to evolve these sequences during playback."

"Rishabh Rajan takes a closer look at the 8raw8 analog drum machine 'expander' that does so many things right when emulating the original Roland TR-808."
"The MPG-50 controller from Retroaktiv. A controller for your Roland Alpha Juno 1/2 or MKS-50. This controller has a lot of features, among them a cool "assign" function that lets you program in different parameters to be controlled from ONE fader. There's also a very sophisticated patch generator for different types of sounds. The programmer can controll two different units at once, and it can also be used as a generic controller for any VST synth that accept CC."
"Simple demo of the machine. Compare to clones :-)
I was using the master out HI diretcla in the TASCAM MODEL 24 and then into the UFX directly recording it to SD card.
Only in the end there is a bit EQ on the channel."
