MOOG Drum

"Classic MOOG DRUM CONTROLLER
Model 1130
connects to Minimoog - Sonic 6 - Modular - etc
works great with my Mini
measures 9" lug-to-lug across the head
**Note for Newbies** It is a "controller" and thus makes no sound of its own, must be used with an analog synth with CV and S-trig inputs.."

"Here i am remixing a track from AAM(Antiguo Automata Mexicano), this is one of the most fun remix i did in the last months using tenori-on, i use only few elements, a basic 8 tracks mix, the Oberheim 4 voice for the bass and solo synth line, the tenori-on for the ambient sound, the Analogue system Modular Synthesizer RS-95, RS-310, RS-220, RS-80 modules on top of the acustic Drums and glitch sounds of AAM.
enjoy!

The seller also has a ton of other books worth checking out.

"The Crumar Spirit was originally designed by Bob Moog (himself), Jim Scott & Tom Rhea and released back around 1982-83. These are the three people behind the Minimoog.

This is said to be the most flexible monophonic synth ever. It has a 37-note keyboard with 2 VCO's. There are saw, triangle, and several square waveforms on both oscillators.The oscillators have an octave range from 32' to 4'. Ring Modulation, low and high pass filters, 12 DB & 24DB slope, single & multiple triggering, keyboard filter tracking, band pass filtering, loudness envelope, filter envelope, arpeggiator linked to LFO (mod-X) with 4 different arpeggiations, LFO 1 modulated 6 different ways, a second waveshapable LFO called (shaper-y) with 4 fixed waveforms and shape control adjustable from saw to reverse-sawtooth, performance panel to include Auto & preset glide, and 3 performance wheels, pitch, Mod-x, and Shaper -Y. with the latter 2 having 5 different destinations. An audio mixer with ability to mix OSC A & B with Ring Modulator, and Noise. LFO 1 also has a red noise generator as well as a brightness control for overall boost of the high frequencies. A filter envelope with inverted and normal ADSR & a loudness envelope which can be bypassed.

Output Jacks: External Gate in, External Pitch in, Keyboard Pitch out, Keyboard Gate out, OSC B Pedal, Filter Pedal, Shaper Audio Out, ADSR Mix Out, External Audio In.

The Spirit is a treasure trove of desirable synth chips, with a pair of CEM3340 oscillators, a pair of CEM3350 Dual VCFs, and no fewer than six CEM3360 Dual VCAs. If this means little to you, I should point out that the 3340 provided the voicing for the Moog Memorymoog, the Oberheim OBXa, OBSX and OB8, the Roland SH101, MC202 and Jupiter 6, early revisions of the Roland MKS80 Super Jupiter, the Rev.3.x Prophet 5s, all Prophet 10s, the T8, the Pro One and the Prophet 600. 3360 VCAs were used in a huge range of instruments, including the Ensoniq ESQ1 and SQ80, the Linndrum, the Memorymoog, numerous Oberheims, the PPG Wave 2.2 and 2.3, the Chroma, the Jupiter 6 and MKS80, and some of the Prophets. The Spirit shares its architecture with the very best. GOOD LUCK!

ElectroKraft.com Super Synth Drums

via this auction

"This is a genuine cartridge for use in the old original or new clone NES systems. Create true 8 bit percussion synth from the real Nintendo NES using the controllers.

You can use the original NES gamepad controllers, as well as the new 3rd party controllers made for NES, or the Yobo and Generation Nex clones.

Each button on controller #1 produces a different 8 bit percussion sound. It's like having an 8 piece synth drum kit that you play with the NES controller.

Controller #1 produces percussion sounds when each button is pressed, controller #2 creates a pulsing/loop effect which can be applied to any of the percussion sounds produced by controller #1.

Just pop in the cart and plug into an amp using an RCA to 1/4" audio jack adapter, or just plug right into your TV's RCA audio input for sound.

(I can also offer modified original (or clone systems; Yobo) NES systems which have an added 1/4" audio output jack and volume control knob.)"
