"Oscar is unique take on an oscillator, providing the very best of both semiconductor and thermionic worlds, namely - good pitch tracking and distinctive vacuum tube / transformer sound. Nothing you have heard before.

The oscillator in its sawtooth core is equipped with Thyratron tube (TG1B). Sync threshold can be controlled with the MOD AMT dial.

Second tube (6F12P) is utilized in a novel waveshaper for Soft Pulse (Triangle-like) and Hard Pulse (square-wave like) waveforms - with the transformer feedback. Waveform shape and harmonic content is frequency dependent. This topology gives the user choice of 6 waveforms, in which 4 of them can be voltage-controlled.

Features
◯ Vacuum tube oscillator module utilizing 6F12P(6Ф12П) and TG1B(ТГ1B) tubes in high voltage operation

◯ Fine and coarse pitch tuning

◯ Voltage-controlled pulse shape

◯ Two V/oct inputs plus one FM Input

◯ Hard sync (variable threshold)

◯ Two waveform outputs

◯ Transformer-based pulse shaper

◯ Pitch tracking: +-8 cents accuracy across 6 octaves

◯ Pitch range: 16Hz - 14kHz"

External MIDI Amiga Synth? Wait, what?!


video upload by Jeremy Parker

"A few years ago I restored my childhood Amiga 500, and only recently found a way to use a soft synth, Aegis Sonix V2, with external MIDI control. I saw ‪@magicalsynthadventure3216‬ video on the topic a while back, and on a whim decided to revisit the idea of using my Amiga as a synth. Thanks to an Amibay.com forum thread, I learned that it's pretty easy to get Aegis Sonix V2 to respond to incoming MIDI, and so I was off to the races. Enjoy!

Commodore Amiga Music Production: Modern Sound Design on Retro Hardware

"A delve into obscure software instruments on the Commodore Amiga. Here I look into both realtime & non-realtime varieties, covering a staggering array of synthesis types!

Update: An interesting side note is that Sonix was released in 1987 with a beta in 1986. That's 10 years earlier than Dave Smith's Seer Systems Reality, which was released in 1997. Seer Systems Reality is often credited as the world's first soft synth. Curious if the distinction was between an editor/interface for the existing Amiga sound chip vs. a self contained software synthesizer.  

I asked Google AI just to see what it would say. Here it is:

"ARP Quadra in great working condition. Serviced regularly by Custom Vintage Keyboards in Los Angeles, this synth has been upgraded with wooden end cheeks to replace the original leather ones, a brand new aftertouch system, as well as fully recapped, and calibrated. There are a few areas with paint chips pictured, but for its age, it is in remarkable shape. Power cord included.

Due to its size/shape and fragile nature, local pickup in Brooklyn only, or can arrange hand delivery within a few hours drive for an additional cost."

808/26 Happy 808 Day! Blue Lantern triggers DSP 808 & Birdkids Unicorn Boom + Gieskes No Drum + (…)


video upload by Cfpp0

"808/26 Happy 808 Day! Blue Lantern Modular MR fill gates & Gate Sequencer + DSP 808 + Birdkids Unicorn Boom + Gieskes No Drum & Starving Binary + Befaco Mutes + ALM Pamela’s New Workout + Alesis MIDIVERB II + CXM 1978

It’s 808 Day again and we still don’t have a Roland TR-808, but this beat uses two 808 clone modules—the DSP Synthesizers 808 Vintage and the Birdkids Unicorn Boom. The DSP 808 module has only one output, but has several different samples to trigger individually. We just got the Blue Lantern MR fill gates module and it is triggering quarter notes on the DSP 808 bass drum. One of the three Blue Lantern Gate Sequencers is triggering half notes on the Birdkids Unicorn Boom. Another Gate Sequencer is triggering an open hi hat on the DSP 808, through a Befaco Mutes so I can turn it on and off. And the last Gate Sequencer is triggering the closed hi hat, but the triggers run first through the Olivia Artz Modular Uncertainty module, for some minor random dropouts. The second output on that closed hi hat Gate Sequencer runs to the Gieskes Starving Binary clock divider, with two divisions modulating the Gieskes No Drums and another division triggering the Birdkids Unicorn Boom accent input. The No. drums is also triggered by the open hi hat Gate Sequencer. The reverb is Alesis MIDIVERB II and the delay is CXM 1978."

Half-Time Techno w/ TR-808, TB-03, and OP-1 field | Lopho 2026-08-08 by atnr


video upload by atnr

"A half-time techno piece created with the TR-808 (MIDI modified), TB-03, and OP-1 field.

On the TR-808, the bass drum and snare are routed through separate outputs. The bass drum passes through the SANSAMP BASS DRIVER DI. The snare is processed through the NIGHTSKY with heavy reverb and filtering.

The master output is connected to the blueSky, allowing reverb to be applied to the overall drum mix.

On the OP-1 field, percussion sounds are glitched using a modulated delay created with the CWO effect.

On the TB-03, a bassline is looped while the filter is adjusted in real time.

The OP-1 field is used as the master clock. The TR-808 and TB-03 are synchronized via MIDI clock."
