Mano Sol - "Howfarout" (Roland DJ-70, Oberheim OB-1, Novation Drumstation)
video upload by Mano Sol
"This is the first of a new series; samples, synths and oscilloscopes...
Going back to how I produced music 30 years ago. Embracing the limitations and beauty of 60s, 70s, 80s, 90s and 00s technology. Repurposing and recycling technology and music.
Equipment used in this video:
Roland DJ-70 (sampling heavy lifting)
Novation Drumstation (808 kicks)
Oberheim OB-1 (filter modulations)
Macintosh SE running MOTU Performer 4.2
Korg SDD-2000 (echoes)
Roland RSP-550 (reverb)
Mackie 1402-VLZ Pro"

Dub Techno w/ TR-808, Music Easel, microKORG S Mirage in Tokyo by atnr
video upload by atnr
"A track built with the Roland TR-808, Buchla Music Easel, and @KORG_INC microKORG S—dub techno sculpted from delay-soaked synth lines and classic drum-machine rhythms.
TR-808: Kick is sent from the individual out through a SANSAMP Bass Driver before recording; all other sounds leave the main out, which runs into a Boss DD-6 for tempo-synced delay.
Music Easel: Generates soft-attack, long-release tones that feed into a @strymon NIGHTSKY for reverb and filter sweeps.
microKORG S: Plays a MIDI-sequenced phrase with its onboard delay, while additional notes are overdubbed live."

This might be the first Donca Matic Universal to be featured on the site.
Two pics of the inside below.
"At Herscheid & the Headbangers: Super rare Keio Donca Matic Universal Drum Machine in fair condition.
Fair condition because some functionalities are not reliable like the start/stop button. (Unit is always on basically). When using it I would just flip the sound/silence switch.
Sign button responsible for the metronome and cue will engage about 80% of the time. I doubt that many musician today will be using that feature but still prefer to mention it.
There's also a clock / clicking sound when volume is past 60% - 70% so it would benefit further amplifying before next stage or unit
EQ in perfect working order
The magic solo feature is fully working
All potentiometers are turning smoothly without scratchy noises
Both high and low impedance outputs are functional. I couldn't test the (very) old speaker connector
Tempo knob and Tempo Matic / Common functionalities perfectly working
Every program / style is working, same for every instrument + their respective on/off switch
FOX SWING section super fun to use! In good working order. The normal/quick button is working but seems to be reversed. Swing / normal working and properly set.
ADLIB MANUAL: Nice feature but will not necessary replicate the notes shown (It's basically depending on if other settings are engage or no. I don't think it was designed like this, just the old age of some components most likely responsible for this behavior)"

"Jexus plays the Microkorg 2 showcasing some unique textures & sound design ideas."
"Thoughts & info: https://sounds-for-synths.com/korg-mi..."
"I did not use any external FX in the demo, no layers, no loopers, etc. All the delays and reverbs are part of the Microkorg-2 engine. My presets are single-timbre so you don’t lose your 8-voice polyphony. The presets come as computer files in 'mk2prog' format. Just load them into the Microkorg-2 by using its flash drive feature (boot your Microkorg-2 in 'disk mode', and when it appears as a new disk drive you can just open / explore it and copy + paste the files). You will have the freedom to import my presets into Bank CLASSIC or MODERN or FUTURE or USER on your Microkorg 2."

DX5 performing The Human League "The Sound of the Crowd"
video upload by DX5
"A simple but interesting song not much known by the early days of The Human League V2 (when the female vocalists joined). If you don't know the original version, check it out. I found it catchy, specially the chorus. So I decided to pick my two analogues plus the JP8000 and give it a try
Gear used.
Left:
Roland MRS2 Promars: single VCO bass (and extra sub bass on backtrack)
Roland JP8000: Cross Mod lead
Right:
Korg Polysix: Sawtooth lead
Backtrack previously recorded, instrument by instrument, on Pro Tools (just drums and the extra sub bass, plus a JX-8P on final pads).
Original song composed by Phil Oakey, Ian Burden.
Performed here by DX5 Jose Maria Bara"

Vintage KORG 770 Analog Synthesizer
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this eBay listing, also on Reverb
"Up for grabs is this sweet Korg 770 monosynth. I believe it was one of Korgs first synthesizers and is the precursor to the legendary linage of killer synths like the 700s, maxikorg, and the MS20 etc. I have owned (or still own) them all and i do say that this little beast is the most unique and aggressive synth by way of tone. The filter can be sweet and smooth or gnarly and wild. The ring modulator and noise generator are unlike any other. It all its a great package... in a little package. Nothing else sounds like it."

Empire NEO Vol 1 - 100 Patches refreshed from the original KingKorg.
video upload by GEOSynths
"Out Now - https://www.geosynths.com/kingkorg
I recently picked up this KingKorg NEO as I used to have the original KingKorg and always loved the Synth Engine, however you know what it’s like, something new comes along and you need the space. Anyway, I made a Bank of 100 Patches for the original, called Empire Vol 1, which had a great range of Sounds and I demonstrated all 100 over 4 videos.
Unfortunately the KingKorg NEO cannot read the data from the original as there are some changes to the Oscillator types and of course, no Tube. So i did a test on a few patches to see if I could recreate them and yes, it can do them fine. So, I’ve gone through a refreshed all 100 Patches for the KingKorg NEO and while there are some differences, it is only slight.
So here’s 25 of my favorite for Empire NEO Vol 1."
