"The word BEAST comes to mind... This is a module that's basically a 6 voice Matrix 12 sans the keyboard! The Matrix patching allows for the most elaborate sounds you could make with an analog synth. It has 5 LFOs!! Create deep, elaborate sounds for years to come! In very good to excellent condition, and functions exactly as it should! It's a fantastic spaceship of a synth!"

Roland System 100M Modular Synthesizer - Roland Studio System Synthesiser 191-J

"Has the standard configuration in the 191-J case / power unit.

112 Dual VCO SN 890912
121 Dual VCF SN 900870
130 Dual VCA SN 760224
140 Dual Envelope SN 750224
150 Ring Mod/Noise/S&H/LFO SN 770579

This unit was put together by EMIS in Bristol in the early 2000's. It was originally a 100V model and EMIS changed the transformer for a 240V. One of the cables that connects the modules to the power supply is a replacement, the other four, original. I have switched the slider caps for some new ones which I found a bit easier to control when you're trying to move the sliders small amounts. The original slider caps are included as well (the last couple of photos show the S100M with the original caps on)."

"Beautiful condition wonderfully musical Korg Monopoly. Reluctant to sell this! Custom wood body and side panel. I’m not the original owner, I did replace the wood panels and checked out the circuits. You can see it’s been serviced and I can confirm it is the original circuitry (looks like at some point someone may have modded the filter, a common adjustment with these, then later someone else restored it to the original circuit). Like many vintage analog VCO synths it takes a minute to warm up before the tuning is stable."

"Pocket operator K.O. synth and sampler! Awesome tool to have around. It can sample audio and edit it, then create drum patterns and sequences and play it back through the built in speaker or connect headphones / other audio devices. Connect this P.O. with other Pocket Operators and the possibilities really open up! This one comes in a boutique silicone case that feels comfortable and will protect the p.o. from pretty much anything. Please ask any questions you may have before purchasing and thanks for looking!"

"Piano Phase" - Steve Reich (1967) - modular synthesizer arrangement


video upload by glkibler

"My modular interpretation of Steve Reich's 1967 landmark piece, originally composed for piano and tape machine. I've shortened the typical 15 minute duration with a version that is about a third as long by speeding up the phase a bit.

The 5U modulars I'm using here are two prototypes I hand-built in 2014 using mainly Yves Usson's (Yusynth) circuit designs - ones, I might add, that I painstakingly transcribed from his original printed circuit designs to my own veroboard layouts. These were originally housed in cheap Ikea bookshelves but last year I broke down and bought two very nice-looking Synthesizers.com cabinets, though I retained my own power supplies. The two 960 sequencers above are simply Behringer 960s I had re-housed inside full-size matching Synthesizers.com panels and cabinets.

I am using Ableton to supply the midi that shifts the phase and it is what is driving the two modulars. Each modular has its own built-in sequencer though and while I have done a version of this piece using those, the results are too variable since I'm basically setting the speed of the two by ear.

The MIDI visual that shows intermittently here is some freeware called MAMPlayer (Music Animation Machine MIDI Player)."

HOW TO MAKE: Trentemøller's bitcrushing lo-fi sounds


video upload by Endorphin.es

"We will show you how to utilize these features in the context of 2 tracks by @trentemollerOfficial called Miss you and Moan. Trentemøller's music is known for extensive use of bitcrushing effects.
His tracks fit really well into the long, dark winters, characterised by imperfections and somewhat broken character of the sound, so we just had to try and recreate it and process it using our Ghost eurorack effect module.

Original tracks:"

Trentemøller: Miss You

video upload by Trentemøller

"A tune I’m still very proud of. Written and recored in two hours! That was it. I didn’t change a single note afterwards because I was so happy with the result. I captured that longing vibe I had late that night and it still is a song I love to play live in different versions."

Trentemøller - Moan

video upload by

"Video for Trentemøller: Moan (Trentemøller remix radioedit), directed by Niels Gråbøl and Ulrik Crone. In memory of Laika (✝1957), the first living creature in space. The song is available on the double-CD "The Trentemøller Chronicles". Original version of Moan appears on the Trentemøller album "The Last Resort" (2006)."

AI018 Eurorack Stereo Matrix Mixer

AI018 DIY Eurorack Stereo Matrix Mixer Build Guide Video


"The AI018 Eurorack Stereo Matrix Mixer is an 8 in, 8 out matrix mixer that allows for the flexible routing of inputs in and out of each other."

See the dealers on the right for availability.



"The AI018 Eurorack Stereo Matrix Mixer is a compact 8-in, 8-out matrix mixer. A matrix mixer is used to route audio or cv signals from multiple sources to different destinations. There are sixteen potentiometers, with each potentiometer controlling the amount a given stereo input pair (1-4) will be sent to a given stereo output (A-D).

A common usage for the AI018 would be as an effects send, with one or more inputs, and one or more effect inputs and outputs. Using the AI018 Stereo Matrix Mixer in this way, inputs can be sent to multiple effects, and the effects can be sent to each other, and even back into themselves, expanding the depth of the effects."

Radical Frequencies melodic sequence 70 bpm

"The source of sound is the Dual Precision Vco (4 different waveforms saw and sine of alpha plus triangle and pulse of beta ) through RF mixer transistor circuit and then into Scota Vcf used as mono in bandpass mode and using the internal cross modulation across with random modulations and lfos. Sequencers are beatstep pro and Befaco muxlicer."
