"3 oscillator semi-modular synth, complex modulation capabilities, MIDI & CV control.

Probably no other monophonic analog synth has this amount of sound bending capabilities at your fingertips on an ultra-compact footprint. Directly prepatched and switchable are:

VCO2 synchable to VCO1
VCO3 can modulate either VCO2 (only) or VCO1 + 2
VCO3 can modulate the filter
VCO3 can be taken out of the audio path completely, becoming an 'invisible' source for modulation only
the filter envelope (VCF) can modulare VCO2 ('sweep VCO')
VCF has two modes of keytracking
both LFOs can control VCOs AND filter cutoff at the same time and with independent settings
LFO1 can do S&H by sampling LFO2 (making them interdependent) or the noise generator
oh, there actually is an "OSC4" which is white noise (with its own level control), in addition to the white noise setting on VCO3 and the white noise setting on LFO2. That's 3 noise generators in just one synth.
glide function
VCA switchable positive / negative
envelope trigger switch
...
In addition, there are the patch points which add PWM modulation, external audio insert points, individual VCO outs, V-gate in on LFO1 +++

Condition:
Fully functional. Great overall cosmetic condition. Very few signs of use. Some hairline scratches around the sides, particularly the front. Hardly visible – see photos.

In Europe, this comes with a 12V AC 1A adapter (EU-style plug – 230V). Not switchable! Will NOT include in North America / Japan sales to save on shipping weight. You'll need to buy one that works at your local voltages."

THE MEANING
Finding the perfect idea shouldn't be at the expense of creative momentum.
​
The Precision Disrupter is a generative Eurorack sequencer that relies on controlled randomization to create melodic & rhythmic patterns with ease and relentless conviction.

THE IDEA
Unlike other generative sequencers in euorack, the Precision Disrupter
offers complete command over the randomization parameters and then immediately empowers you with fine-editing controls for precise, real-time performance punch.

THE BOTTOM LINE
The Precision Disrupter is a melody generating powerhouse. Quickly find the the perfect sequence, breathe in the inspiration, and show them what you are made of.

THE INSPIRATION
We would like to thank the companies and products that have inspired us to start Anti-Kulture and to build the Precision Disrupter. They've had a heavy influence on our music and in the creation of our products. Without them, this wouldn't be possible. Audiorealism, Ableton Live, Arturia, Native Instruments, Elektron, Moog, Buchla, Erica Synths, Mutable Instruments, Make Noise, Instruo, Tip-Top Audio, Intellijel, Doepfer, Cwejman, Waldorf, Teenage Engineering, Roland and many, many more.

"This unit is in immaculate condition inside and out. The oscillators are rock solid and every function operates 100% as should. These were made in a limited run and don't have the extra LFO's on the D desktop version but it doesn't have any power issues of the D and has a very clean output signal. Macbeth units are hard to acquire individually, here you have 3 oscillators,noise, that famous Macbeth filter, 2 snappy envelopes, and many other routing options"

"This Macbeth X-Series Micromac D fully analog synth is in excellent cosmetic condition, it works as it should, no functionality issues. It has seen very light use.

This is a rare synth, was made in the UK out of production, and hard to come by. Built like a tank. Solid enclosure and solid controls. No cheap Chinese plastic components here.

“The fattest vintage sounding desktop analogue synthesizer available.”

Sold with its power adapter for 220v.

A masterpiece by Scottish synth designer genius Ken Macbeth, this is Ken’s take on the classic Minimoog Model D concept of a 3-VCO synth with a 24db ladder filter.

Ken Macbeth is - besides Wowa Cwejman - the best boutique analog synth builder of our time, doing everything the old-school way of through-hole solering. This is true analog!
The sound that his synths deliver is simply out of this world and the Micromac D is no exception. Despite its desktop size it packs a heavy punch. Seriously - in terms of sound this is as good as it gets.



Here are the specs:

3 x 1v/octave tracking voltage controlled oscillators.
Oscillators 1 and 2 featuring 4 waveforms: sawtooth, square, triangle and sine. oscillators 1 and 2 feature pwm control inputs.
Oscillator 3 featuring 6 waveforms: sawtooth, square, triangle, sine, ramp and lower frequency noise.
Oscillator 2 can be hard synchronized to oscillator 1.
Oscillator 3 can be used as a modulation source, both in the audio range and the low frequency range. oscillator 3 can be used to modulate oscillators 1 and 2 as well as the voltage controlled filter. oscillator 3 can be disconnected from the main controlling cv.
Oscillators 1,2 and 3 feature separate control voltage inputs for external control sources.
Oscillators 1,2 and 3 have separate audio outputs (pre-mixer) for external proccessing in other systems.
Oscillators feature separate attenuated volume controls into the filter.
Oscillators 1,2 and 3 feature both course and fine tune frequency controls that have a range above and below the audio spectra.
Noise generator features white noise with its own attenuated volume control into the filter. setting 6 on the oscillator 3 waveform control allows a lower frequency noise to be used for modulation effects and can also be used as audio source.
1v/octave voltage controlled filter:
24db/octave transistor ladder low pass filter. oscillates at high 'q'/resonance.
Tracking of the filter from the main cv input can be 0%/half/full (0v/octave, 1v octave and 1.5v/octave)
The filter also features a separate 1v/octave external cv input for other control sources.
The vcf is swept directly by its own envelope generator.
2 x envelope generators. ads/switchable release type. filter eg can be switch between a positive going envelope or an inverted envelope. filter eg can be switched to sweep oscillator 2 for hard synchronization sweeps. vca eg can be diconnected via an external vca cv input socket.

All analogue circuitry used in the design is the 'old school' through hole parts."

"i got my Prophet-10 and so i started jamming around. As i have no intention to make traditional sounds with it i came up with this techno-jam wich started with this super-fat unison-detuned-lead sound.
The other elements of the track or done on the Syntakt, the polivoks.pro and the Macbeth Elements.
Sequencing was done on the Syntakt and Hapax."

video upload by David Bessell

"Seventh Window - A track from the album Imaginator by Dave Bessell and Liam Boyle. You can find the full album here https://davebessellandliamboyle.bandc...
Released on Groove Unlimited.

The video is by Sam Cox and you can find his youtube channel here"

"Dave Bessell and Liam Boyle first met on Facebook through an interest in Node. Liam has a very wide range of mu-sical interests and skills including the classical avant garde so Dave invited him to a performance of one of his classi-cal modernist pieces for orchestra at Plymouth University. The two hit it off and first collaborated on a track called Theme One from Dave’s solo electronic album ‘Black Horses of the Sun’. It was always on the cards that these two would collaborate further and in 2020 the opportunity arose which resulted in this latest album ‘Imaginator’ their first on Groove Unlimited.

Liam has produced a number of film socres for american independent films as well as recording multiple electronic albums such as ‘Off World’ and more recently ‘Waveforms’ He continues to explore electronic sound design, visuals, guitar and classical compositions

Dave Bessell, founder member of synth group Node, has been releasing a series of fascinating solo and collaborative EM albums over recent years, mainly on DiN records. He also has a lengthy back story involving session playing programming and arranging for a variety of artists and labels including Killing Joke and Suede. Along the way he also picked up a Phd in classical orchestration from the Royal College of Music.

This latest collaboration is the first full album with versatile soundtrack and EM composer Liam Boyle. It is also the first release for these artists on Groove Unlimited. The musical emphasis here is on both melody and sonic explora-tion with an atmospheric soundtrack feel throughout. Not surprising really considering both artists have seperately worked on soundtracks - from independent films to TV. The music is detailed and multilayered repaying close and repeated listening and is realised entirely with analogue hardware, plus a little heavily treated and disguised guitar. Dave also uses an unusual instrument on a couple of tracks called an Aum guitar which is designed to be played with an ebow and sounds nothing like a guitar!

released January 1, 2022"

"The M5N is the second and slightly enhanced version of the M5.

After owning a MacBeth M5 I ordered these with a painting job according to my wishes. As a huge fan of most iconic ARP synthesizers these M5Ns should be similar in look to an ARP Blue Marvin/Meanie. It finally looked absolutely stunning with a kind of white/turqouise color combo."

Introduction video here

"Ken MacBeth's Micromac -R is a small and yet powerful, full analog standalone synthesizer voice module for your Eurorack modular system. Unlike his competitors it has three voltage controlled oscillators and a classic Moog lowpass filter.

Control only via CV and Gate - No MIDI

3VCOs: VCO1 and 2 have saw, pulse, triangle and sine waveforms and the pulse width can be voltage controlled by external CVs. A low frequency noise with level control is available as well. VCO 1 can hard sync VCO2. VCO3 can be used as a modulation oscillator and can be disconnected from the master CV. Modulation targets are filter cutoff frequency and/or pitch of VCOs1and2. All VCOs have individual outputs, coarse and fine frequency controls, separate CV inputs for controlling frequency and pre-filter level controls.

The filter is a Moog 24dB lowpass filter. Its input is a mixture of all three VCOs and noise. The cutoff frequency can be controlled by the first envelope generator as well as by an external CV. The filter tracking is switchable between off / half / full (0%, 1V/oct and 1.5V/oct).

The envelopes are ADSRs with a switchable release parameter thats time is depending on the decay parameter, just like the Minimoog. The filter envelope can be also used to control VCO2´s pitch what sounds great when VCO2 is synchronized. Furthermore you can invert this envelope´s characteristic. The second envelope modulates the VCA. If an external CV is patched to the VCA the internal modulation is broken up. A momentary button allows for manual triggering of the envelopes

CV in, CV out (1V/Octave), Gate In, Gate out

three CV inputs for VCO 1-3 frequency, two PWM CV inputs 1&2; external audio input pre-VCF, individual outptus for VCO 1-3

CV input for filter cutoff, external audio input pre-VCA, Main-Out

3U Eurorack module, 60HP wide, approx. 75mm deep."
