"The 'STORN' brand name itself, derives from SynThesizer electRONic, it’s gonna be 'STRON' when united, however it is not easy or even a catchy word, so that we split up the word and turn it into STORN, an identical easy to hear and ear friendly word. Storn System begins inadvertently research in the 2000s, it started off with curiosity, fascination and interest to create musical instruments such as Analog Synthesizer that can be use to played out with the band. For the first time we just custom analog synthesizer, sound effect, music instrument modification, repairing music instrument.

From that ystorn-system-analog-synthesizer-lavatoryear we attempting to customized and build our own Analog Synthesizer. Our very first Analog Synthesizer produced is mono synthesizer semi modular called 'LAVATORY' in 2005 use by Ade Habibie a musician from Jakarta Indonesia, and the first Keyboard custom modification is for Elang from Polyester Embassy band.

Just after repetitive trial error and then finally convinced, we made a decision to officially commercial as Analog Synthesizer maker in Bandung Indonesia on the year 2005, many thanks for unstoppable supports from our fellow folks, analog synthesizer rulez!.

And so in this 2013 we start to develop our very own boutique custom designed analog synthesizer modular to suit demands and stop to receive custom made or service devices, we begin to concentrating our aim to become one of analog synthesizer creator and join the little business niche.

Hopefully we make analog synthesizer which might be an alternative solution for musicians and bands on the planet for producing experimental sounds that expected, therefore we desire that with the addition of Storn System on the global community is to get rid of the boundary in between Indonesian music and global music, we would like to provide a message that lots of folks in Indonesia, that has capability beyond logic.

We also want to said that each and every analog synthesizer that we designed it all self-taught that we learn from the exploration, as for each analog synthesizer we develop with all heart and blood, simply because we are also musicians and know your hunger.

Storn System – Analog Synthesizer Maga

The 'first' analog synthesizer that we create in the 2013 called 'Maga' taken from the name of the 4th calendar month of Sunda and the 'Maga' word has two syllables so easy to mention, the name was taken when we starting the research in the fourth month or April 2013.

'Maga' is a semi modular analog synthesizer that have analog and digital technology, but the resulting sound is a 'pure analog'. The digital part works to controlling MIDI and patch system restore for modulation routing only.

wait for next description and panel picture, we working on it"

"Up for auction is this killer 12 bit/analogue drum machine, sampler and synth from the mid 80s in perfect working condition. With 12 bit sampling followed by a fully analogue CEM resonant filter and envelope it has a similar design to the EMU SP1200 and PPG wave and is an amazing machine. This really does sound incredible:

With midi control and some very deep programming this has to be one of if not the best sounding and most versatile drum machine/samplers ever created.
The sound is incredibly punchy and fat, it's basically like a more fully spec'd and modern sp1200 in a rack but with fully programmable analogue CEM resonant filters and snappy envelopes.

Use it as a drum machine, sampler or synth. With full midi controls and trigger inputs it was designed as a very high professional drum brain. In terms of sound creation possibilities and sound quality, this is probably only rivalled by the Simmons SDX.

This comes with the ADD-drive to allow sampling of your own sounds on top of those built into the ADD-one rom and loading samples from disk. It also comes with 15 disks of samples to get you started. Compatible with the HxC floppy drive emulator, further samples can be found online at it's also compatible with the Akai S900 disks!

This is fully working and in near perfect condition..."
