playing with a TX-6
video upload by Ashuinyak
"Hello.
Today I played around with the TX-6 synthesizer.
It's got some powerful FX and various sequencing patterns, so it's easy to play around with.
I recorded the sound from the TX-6 via USB to my iPhone.
It's very easy to use because it's easily recognized.
I use a Sony camera, so I matched the sound in the editing process.
I also added a caption."

Korg MS-10 w/ Cool Korg Rainbow Stickers on Top
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"Fully functional, see demo video. Demo is heavily processed and the original audio can be provided on a serious request. I used a vintage (LOL) webcam so the sound and image are accordingly in quality.
Subway train, Ocean wave and Storm sounds all generated by the MS-10.
My pictures show the condition well, including a superficial scratch on the face and a small chip missing from the bottom of one of the keys. There are 3 Korg stickers on the top as well. I don't want any reclamations later concerning these minor cosmetic issues. The sound is awesome and nothing scratches. The modular functions work as they should and so does the mod wheel.
Walter the spokescat is not included in the deal - and no, he does not come into my music space. Too loud for him. Oh and the patch cables are for illustration purposes ONLY - they are not included.."

Octave Plateau Voyetra Eight 8 Voice Polyphonic Synthesizer
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"Octave Plateau Voyetra Eight Rev 4. Rev 4 - the final revision which includes all of the available MIDI interfacing.
video in the listing previously featured here.
Technically, this Voyetra Eight is fully functional and future-proofed. Under previous ownership, it was serviced at The Analog Lab (designers of Voyetra Eight) about 10 years ago. Upon acquisition, just to be on the safest side, we again had it serviced to assure another 40+ years of flawless performance with full diagnostics, fresh power supply capacitors, a new battery, matching genuine CEM and SSM chip throughout, all cards inspected, and full calibration. It will include 2 custom high quality XLR to MIDI 5 Pin-Din cables for in and out interfacing.
Cosmetically, as you can see it is in fantastic condition. Yes, there are some noticeable but minor blemishes on the chassis from installing the unit into different racks over the years. A modest 9/10 rating on cosmetics.
We don’t have track note on where exactly it was used within specific songs or sessions. Still, we can confirm this Voyetra Eight was used on upward of 100 releases and in some capacity on the following highlighted releases:
Africa Bambaataa - Beware (The Funk is Everywhere)
Africa Bambaataa - Planet Rock: The Album
Ministry - Twitch
Nine Inch Nails - Pretty Hate Machine
Nine Inch Nails - Sin EP
Nine Inch Nails - Head Like a Hole EP

Creating deep modulation for cool house style chords in Eurorack with WMD OSD, Javelin, and Overseer
video upload by WMDevices
"WMD OSD (OR/SUM/DIF) was released earlier this year and although it's a tiny 4 HP utility, it can be used to make some really cool, deep modulations with envelopes and LFOs.
In this video, Alex walks through creating some unique deep house style chord samples for the Rossum Electro-Music Assimil8or by modulating a rather simple chord sound with two envelopes and one LFO all at the same time with OSD's analog OR function.
Logic in Eurorack modular synthesizers can be confusing and intimidating, but it's really rather simple. This video shows the best way to combine multiple CV signals to create unique textures that can then be used in a performance or recording setting."

New Moog Mavis Semi-Modular Synth Coming in 4 Days?
[Update: full details, pics and demos here.]
Fuzzy thumbnail from the upcoming video below. I will put up a new post when it goes live if legit.
It this is real, it would be odd Moog didn't anounce and show it at NAMM.
I thought it might be the DFAM, Mother-32, or Subharmonicon but note the patch bay is on the left with lettering below. Even if you turned them upside down they wouldn't match. It's also considerably thinner and smaller. Maybe The form factor is more similar to the Werkstatt-01.
The Trademark was filed back on 2021-09-03 under:

disting EX - Tracker, live
video upload by Expert Sleepers
"People asked for a demo of the new Tracker algorithm tracking live audio instead of samples, so here's me playing my bass clarinet through it.
Clarinet into Little Mikey, into disting EX running Tracker. CV/envelope from that into another disting EX running the Poly Wavetable algorithm (using the CV/Pressure input option).
First a couple of phrases using the tracked pitch, then I change the output to be a harmony CV so the synth voice is a third above the clarinet."

"This ATC-1 is fully functional, in great condition with some light cosmetic scratches on top which affects nothing of the synth, and includes the Moog filter cartridge. This synth is very much a rack mount Moog Source - it sounds incredible.
The ATC-1 is a monophonic analog synthesizer with a unique design that allows you to change out the filter from a cartridge loaded in the back. Studio Electronics offered cartridges modeled after the Moog Minimoog, Oberheim SEM, Roland TB-303, and the Arp 2600. The interface is reminiscent of the Moog
Source with cell membrane buttons and a single data encoder to change parameters and program sounds."
