Note the pics include the keyboard version and the accordian keys. Not sure if the listing includes both or just random pics. The don't appear to have been featured on the site previously, as you can see in the small handfull of posts featuring Cavagnolo here.

You can find a demo of one previously posted here.

"CAVAGNOLO EXAGONE XM64 is definitely one of the rarest combinations of an old French analogue! According to the Cavagnolo website, only 25 versions of the composite keyboards were produced and another 75 with accordion keys, Depech Mode owns one and uses it in the Delta Machine EPK) The Cavagnolo EXAGONE XM64 is a flammable monophonic analog synthesizer manufactured in France in 1982 Some features: 2 VCO with SUB OSC and many waveforms (includes very cool and powerful PWM which can be modified by LFO!), VCF, LFO 1, LFO 2, LFO DELAY (a kind of repeating LFO), EG, ADSR, NOISE, PORTAMENTO, the great OSC Sync... 64 memory locations to save and recall tuning patches! CV / GATE IN OUT, filter control and more ... for universal external control. What about the sound? The Cavagnolo Exagone XM64 sounds like a mix of a minimoog and the Roland System 100 for some warming sounds, but it can also make very original drones due to its clever LFO guidance facilities. The CAVAGNOLO EXAGONE XM64 is perfect for the musician who wants the music of Moog Roland and other sequential circuits, and the CAVAGNOLO EXAGONE XM64 is fully serviced: it is in perfect working order and in excellent cosmetic condition! It is a 220V model."

Handmade Glitches (Musikraken iPad Hand Tracking + Monome Norns Fall)


video upload by Perplex On

"Here i‘m trying to utilize the handtracking features of #musikraken app on iOS to use hand gestures as midi source for creating glitchy bits. Layered on top of a generative soundbed coming from #monome #norns loaded with Fall script. A connected #OxiOne acts as a grid. Next to the sound coming from the Norns, it‘s also sending midi to the iPad playing various synths (#Aparillo, #VHSSynth and #Zeeon) at the same time. The straight beat is coming from #playbeat3 while the glitchy bits are coming from #fractalbits. The hand waving gestures are not only triggering midi note events but also modulate additional FX (#koalafx and #dedalusdelay), e.g. the distance of the second hand towards the ipad camera is controlling the comb filter of Koalafx and the opening of the first hand is controlling the delay feedback of Dedalus."

NOT for gates only!

video upload by moogfoundation

David Rosenthal, Billy Joel's keyboardist/musical director, talks about the 2022 summer raffle Mini

"The Minimoog raffled in 2022 isn’t just signed by an icon: It belonged to Billy Joel’s musical director, a musician of note in his own right – keyboardist, synth programmer, and orchestrator David Rosenthal, formerly of Rainbow, who has toured with Cyndi Lauper, Robert Palmer, and Enrique Iglesias, programmed synths for Bruce Springsteen, and also worked with Happy the Man, Steve Vai and Red Dawn.
Video recorded at Strange Cranium in NYC.
Get your own raffle ticket here: https://bit.ly/MinimoogBillyJoel"



"This summer, somebody's going to win a fully restored, vintage Minimoog signed by Billy Joel.

It's a good month when Tom Oberheim joins your team of supporters, and Billy Joel signs your Minimoog. It's still pretty crazy out there, but with Tom, Billy, and a network of supporters engaging in our mission to inspire people of all ages through the intersection of science, music, and technology, we feel ready to take on the world.

This vintage beauty belonged to Billy Joel's long-time keyboardist and musical director, David Rosenthal, who took it on tour with Ritchie Blackmore's Rainbow in the 1980s.

It now bears the signature of one of the most beloved and best-selling entertainers of all time.

Somebody's going to win it for the cost of a raffle ticket."

Korg Prologue -|- demo by Jexus / WCOG (B-ROLL)


video upload by Jexus (sounds-for-synths.com)

"No talking demo of Korg Prologue. All patches custom-made by Jexus. I did not use any external FX in the demo; all the delays, phasers, noises and other effects are part of the Prologue engine & my intentional patch design. I did not use the onboard LF Comp but I used some slight EQing on some patches. I recorded my demo straight through an audio card. This is a standard factory Prologue unit – you don’t need any custom oscillators, FX or other addons (just the factory „Waves” oscillator).

Eurorack Chords and Groove 🏄🏼‍♂️


video upload by Andrea Marzilli

"Chords and Groove 🏄🏼‍♂️
There’s a lot going on here.

Basically, @qubitelectronix Bloom is sending CVs to the @mutableinstruments Tides V/oct IN, acting as the 'chord machine'.
Beads is sampling something I can’t remember tbh, transforming it in this glassy sound and receiving modulation on Shape and Time from Stages: this means groove.
Rings and Monsoon for some tasty stereo movement (old but gold friends)
@noiseeng Desmodus Versio is, as always, the captain of my ambient-washy sea.

Enjoy with headphones. 🎧"
