The first recording with Minimoog synthesizer - Sun Ra – ‘My Brother The Wind’ (1970)
video upload by George Greene
"The first recording with Minimoog synthesizer (Model B prototype) - Sun Ra And His Astro Infinity Arkestra – ‘My Brother The Wind’ (1970)
In 1969, Sun Ra had recorded on Moog Modular synthesizer at the New York midtown studio of Gershon Kingsley. Those recordings were issued on My Brother the Wind, Vol. 1 (although it was not titled 'Vol. 1'— it only achieved that reference after 'Vol. 2' appeared). The following year, drummer Tommy Hunter arranged a meeting between Sun Ra and synth pioneer Robert Moog in upstate Trumansburg, New York. Bob and his crew were testing prototypes of the Minimoog at that time, inviting Sun Ra to explore its sounds. A recording of this test session was made and, although not originally intended for commercial release, partly released many years later in 1992 (My Brother the Wind, Vol. 2, CD tracks 7-11: The Wind Speaks, Sun Thoughts, Journey to the Stars, World of the Myth 'I', The Design - Cosmos II). But more significantly, it was during this visit that Moog loaned Sun Ra a prototype Minimoog (Model B), several months before the commercial instrument (Model D) was introduced in March 1970. Ra immediately added the instrument to his repertoire of keyboards, later acquired a second, and featured the Minimoog prominently on many of his recordings of the early 1970s. Sun Ra sometimes played two Minimoogs at the same time to achieve a duophonic synthesizer sound.

The History of the Minimoog Prototypes
video upload by AutomaticGainsay
"If you've ever been curious about the genesis of the Minimoog, this series found on the Automatic Gainsay Patreon page, Automatic Gainsay: The Wavewrights, is for you. The series explores the history of the development of the Minimoog as well as the individual distinctive functionality found on the prototypes."
"Here is the URL that gives you access to this amazing content: patreon.com/automaticgainsaythewavewrights
The synthesizer music in this video was created with a multitracked 1974 Minimoog."

Digital Cymbal
video upload by George Benton
"I took an MKS50240 Top Octave Synthesizer IC (TOS) and copying from a Lowrey Organ circuit from the 80's made a Digital Cymbal noise Generator.
Lowrey D350. The MKS50240 is obsolete as far as I know. If anyone can source them put it in the comments. I hope to do a part 2 when finished."
Kind of like the EML Polybox.
Guitar + Regen

"The Synclavier II was used heavily by guitarists, back in the day, including Frank Zappa, Sting, Mark Knopfler, Pete Townshend, Chris Currell, Pat Metheny, and others.
Regen can be used in much the same way, and this video highlights two Guitar to MIDI options on the market today.

Kraftwerk - Spacelab (1978) [Cover by Synthfluencer]
video upload by Synthfluencer
""Spacelab" was published by Kraftwerk in 1978 on their 7th studio album 'Die Mensch-Maschine' (The Man Machine). The album is one of Kraftwerk's best-known and most successful releases and is considered a milestone in pop history. Alongside the top hits 'Die Roboter' and 'Das Model', 'Spacelab' is also one of Kraftwerk's most iconic songs. The song received special attention when Kraftwerk performed it during their 2018 tour in Stuttgart together with German astronaut Alexander Gerst, who was live from the International Space Station (ISS).
With the cover, I stick to the original version as far as possible. I only added the radio announcements at the beginning and in the middle of the song. The musical structure is not very complicated: I play the lead voice with the Kawai S-100F synthesizer, which is about as old as the song. The prominent pad is played by the Behringer Pro-800. The strings I played with the Waldorf Streichfett. The bass arpeggio is a layered sound I created with the Behringer Model-D, the deep filter bass with the Behringer Neutron. The vocoder voices are self-recorded with the help of the Yamaha MODX. At the beginning you can hear the Behringer PRO-1.
In addition to my own recordings, I use audio, video and picture material from the NASA archive (https://images.nasa.gov/)."
Behringer Introduces Non Cloned Vocoder V16 Eurorack Module
via Behringer
"We’d like to share an exciting new project. We designed the first iteration of our powerful 16-band Vocoder for Eurorack. This is a prototype only but we can hopefully deliver this product within the year.
For all who believe we can only do clones - this is not one of them:-) Fully developed in house by our marvelous and passionate engineers.
What’s your level of interest?"

Coral & Keystep - Poly control with 1 CV & Gate
video upload by OXI Instruments
"In this example we’re sending v/oct and gate signals from the Arturia Keystep. Coral is set to Poly CV mode (the alternative mode is Unison).
POLY CV means it will allocate a different voice every time it reads a new note on the v/oct input.
Thanks to this feature you can play strummed chords, pads with long decayed notes and of course, arpeggios with only 1 v/ocv and gate signals."
