Music from my ATMOS album Height Supremacy, a track called 'Miles From Cornwell'

VCS3 sequence processed with Synthi Hi-FLi
video upload by Digitana Electronics
"A basic sequence being played on a VCS3 and processed with one of the re-release Synthi Hi-FLi's which has been modded to add hi level audio input and also external cv control of phase shifting. Some delay is also added.
The sequence has to be 'punchy' enough to trigger the attack/decay detector on the Hi-FLi (which a plucked guitar string would normally achieve). I am not using the external cv control of the phase shifting in this demo..just slow sine wave modulation selection. Treble boost has a huge effect on the sound as does sub octave. Fuzz tends to soften things."

Benge electronic album Orgoustic Plus 30
video upload by Memetune Studio
"There is a new Benge album out today!
It's 30 years since I released my first album. This is a a kind of follow up
In 1995, I decided to set up a small home studio and record an album, using a combination of acoustic and electronic instruments. The result was my debut solo record Electro-Orgoustic Music, which was also the first release on my label Expanding Records
It was the beginning of a lifelong journey, a sonic adventure in which I explored my musical passions, combining old and new equipment, trying to discover my own unique voice with these fascinating instruments. I have followed my instincts and expanded my toolbox, but kept true to my original vision: to surround myself with inspirational tools and live amongst them, using them daily in my work and play
Here, I present to you an album made 30 years on from that debut recording, using a similar cast of instrumental characters, in fact many of the same ones which appeared on the first album
This album was made on the following equipment (asterisk denotes an appearance on the 1995 album):
Moog Modular 3C*
Arp 2500
Buchla 200
EMS VCS3*
Serge Modular
AKAI S950* / S5000 and AX73
Minimoog*
Yamaha CS40M
Korg Lambda
Baby Grand Piano*
Double Bass*
Clarinet*
Drums, Cymbals, Percussions*
Lexicon 224X and PrimeTime-95
AMS RMX16, Quantec QRS
Neve 88D Mixing Console"

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this Reverb listing
"Up for sale is an original 1974 EMS Synthi 100 Synthesizer. I am the second owner of this amazing instrument. It is in incredible condition for an item of its age and size. Very few of these were produced in the early 1970s and most of them were sold to institutions, private studios and musicians - these almost never turn up for sale on the open market.
This particular Synthi 100 was one of the last produced by EMS (London) and has all of the standard factory updates including newer scope, sequencer memory display and patchable multimeter. below is a list of what is included with the auction:
