Interesting look at the buttons under the membrane panel.

"Although the switches have not been cleaned, the board is in overall working condition, with both the coil and vacuum display working, this should fix an 8P that's not lighting up, but otherwise working."

Doepfer Dark Energy

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

"I bought this unit only recently to integrate with my Moog semi-modular setup, mostly as an additional voice to integrate with Mother 32. Its a fantastic box all by itself, and honestly i think it is probably superior to the Mother in many ways (i like the flexibility of the voice way more than the Moog, esp its FM capabilities) but i am finding it mostly overlaps too much with other things i already have.

*again, 1 detail about this unit worth flagging is that the right wood side panel is a bit wiggly. Apparently, this is a common problem with these boxes, and can be fixed, but i haven't had it long enough to bother. It is not an issue if its just sitting on a desktop, in which case it is rock-solid and unnoticeable. Just FYI."

8-Bit ARP Odyssey?? An exploration of the Soulsby Odytron

Oscillator Sink

"The Soulsby Atmegatron is a synth I have woefully neglected as of late, so in an attempt to reignite my enjoyment of this little 8-bit friend, I flashed it with an alternative firmware transforming it into the Odytron.

The Odytron is a true 8-bit emulation of the iconic ARP Odyssey... which sounds like an idea that bridges madness and genius! In this video we take a relaxed sonic stroll through the synth's features and go on to build a few patches to see if it captures the soul of its analogue inspiration within its 8-bit digital heart!

Here are the songs I mentioned in the intro:"



Soulsby Atmegatron Song - Sink's Theme
Soulsby Atmegatron Song - Dungera's Theme
Soulsby Atmegatron Song - Seavari's Theme
Soulsby Atmegatron Song - Aireo's Theme

Gotharman's SpazeDrum: Overview & User Interface Tutorial // incl. Kick Drum Sound Design! #TTNM

THE TUESDAY NIGHT MACHINES

"In this video I'll give you an overview of the SpazeDrum synthesizer's feature set and user interface, while creating an analog electro kick drum sound :) More info below!

♥ SUPPORT: http://bit.ly/ttnm-support ♥

SpazeDrum Website:
http://www.gotharman.dk/spazedrum.htm

Gotharman's SpazeDrum is a versatile drum synthesizer and groovebox, combining analog oscillators and filters, with digital sound creation tools, crazy Little deFormer 3 effects and deep and creative sequencing possibilities. The user interface is streamlined for electronic drum synthesis, but it also does bass lines, lead synths and drones and noise nicely too. It's awesome. Yes. It's truly my favorite piece of gear of 2020 :D "

These usually have reddish accents as seen in previous posts. This might actually be the first one with green outlines featured on the site.  Curious what the story is behind it.  Custom, or factory? Different rev?  If anyone knows, feel free to leave a comment.

Elektron Sidstation Ninja Edition Rare - Only 50 made

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

via this auction

"Amazing limited edition synth.

The Sidstation is the guts of a Commodore 64 with an analog filter and custom software to bring out the power of the original, NOS chipset. Three syncable oscillators produce 8bit waveforms, with wavetables, ring modulation etc. Can make classic video game tones, but can do much more - has a much more raw and powerful sound than a standard analog synth."

Bokeh Bokeh - Korg Nts1 Volca Modular and Ds10 Jam

ChrisLody

"Well, I'm a bit meh about this one. I've had a bit of a dry patch/mammoth video gaming session over the last couple of months so I've not been making any music. This was an experiment to make something with the Volca Modular and Korg Ds10 with mismatched time signatures, not sure I like the result but there it is.

I've got Korg Ds10 controlling the sync of the Modular and the Modular passing it's audio through the effects on the Nts1.

The video projected over the top is from some old mini dv tapes I got hold of recently. Its film footage of Blackpool Illuminations. There is a section that filmed out of focus that gives a beautiful bokeh effect, trouble is the subtly of it is completely lost when projected like this so I'll probably use that footage for something else in a different way in the future.

Oh well, at least I made something."

Best Ambient Synth Shootout #95: Alesis S4 QuadraSynth - Song 1

Christian's Sonic Spaces

"This is the first song with the S4 QuadraSynth. It's a 64 voice 16-part multitimbral ROM-based synthesizer from the early 90s.

I used for the recording the following FX chain:
S4 QuadraSynth - Roland EF-303 - Digitech Obscura - Pigtronix Echolution 2 Deluxe - GFI System Specular Reverb 2. Depending on the recorded track some FX are deactivated

The signal went through a Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 into the PC via USB for recording. To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. The final song was then mastered with a bit EQ and compression on some tracks and some limiting on the master track."

And the track:



"I built this track completely from samples I recorded during a trip in Berlin in 2019. I released a new video on YouTube where I show you the recording process and how I built this track it. You can download the samples I recorded free or support me by paying something for them (link below). Create something awesome with them and share it with me!"
