any sub - self-powered sub oscillator module

video upload by Maffez Synthmods

"Here are a shoddy "proof this exists" video of a dual suboscillator (-1 octave, -2octaves times two) that can be used as a hand held device or a 8HP Eurorack module (where you get a total of four sub oscs) for use with modular synths or semi-modular synths with a patch bay. These sub oscillator modules are only powered by the waveform you send into them, so they do not require a conventional power supply.

I call this an EDI module because it's intended to be free but linked to a donation to the Women's Audio Mission and/or The Trevor Project, i.e. if you make one of these for yourself, I expect you to donate a little bit to either or both of these institutions, and if you want to make commercial use of it, you have to donate in proportion to how many modules you sell.

"Very good condition Microwave 2 with the expanded voice card for 30 voices and expanded FX. This essentially a Microwave 2XT without the knobs or external input. You could remove the expansion board and place it into an XT and gain the 30 voices. You would be left with a 10 voice Microwave 2 with the latests revision board. I sent this into Waldorf to have this mod done years ago. All of the encoders work and the display is crisp. Minimum rack rash if at all. This is close to one of a kind."

Fully Serviced 1974 Moog White Elephant CDX-0652 Vintage Cordovox Combo Organ & Synthesizer

Moog CDX 0652 video upload by tiff sea



via this Reverb listing

"This synthesizer/organ was nicknamed the 'White Elephant'. It was built in Italy in 1974 by Cordovox. It combines a Thomas organ with a Moog Satellite shared on the upper manual.

The synthesizer voices play only on the upper manual, while the organ voices play on both, with organ and synth sections simultaneously available on the upper manual. The CDX-0652 also includes a batch of 9 preset synthesizer voices which don't appear on a Moog Satellite. The sonic options available are vast, with banks of switches, buttons, and sliders to shape both the combo organ and Moog circuitry. The Moog bass signal can also be accessed on the lower manual and blended with the organ, and the combo organ even has a full percussion bank.

CDX-0652

A dual-manual combo organ with a Moog Satellite grafted onto it. I understand that the Satellite had a very thin sound, nothing like the MiniMoog. It had only a single oscillator and several preset sounds, similar to other semi-preset synths like the Arp Pro Soloist and the Roland SH-2000.

Thomas bought the rights to the Satellite from Moog. The CDX-0652 was designed by Thomas in cooperation with Cordovox. A Thomas version of the Satellite (the "Synthi 1055) and the CDX-0652 were both manufactured by EME, the same outfit that made most Italian Vox organs. Thomas also marketed the Satellite under the "Orbit" name on some of their home organs.

The synthesizer voices play only on the upper manual, organ voices play on both. Organ and synth voices may be played simultaneously on the upper manual. It includes a batch of 9 preset synthesizer voices that don't appear on a Satellite. Unlike the 0642, this one seems to have all of the organ features (many of which seem identical to the 0642) available on both keyboards.

Work done: fabricated new key actuators for synth section.
