"Very rare wind instrument (Valve) based on an Analog synthesizer equipped with a 'Steiner Parker' filter with resonance.
The instrument works very well. It is sold with its original box, in which it still has been kept.
It has been use very little, only a scratch caused by the plog on the left side and some sign of age on the case"

Pictured below:
"Prince used the Oberheim OB-Xa as his go to Analog Synth starting on Dirty Mind & primarily on Controversy, 1999 & Purple Rain. It's even responsible for the "Church Organ" intro on Let's Go Crazy."

Note the synth in the image looks more like an OB-X with grey panel.

Endorphin.es Spaceship | Episode 04 | Configuring Shuttle Control MIDI to CV


Cinematic Laboratory

"This video is about basic Shuttle Control configuration with the endorphin.es/cargo website, but it's also about making music. In future episodes I'll cover the advanced stuff, but this video could be all you need to use your shuttle control with your DAW. In this 'showcase' I used two voices (midi channel 1 & 2) and a drum pattern (midi channel 10). This is the factory preset for the Arturia BSP, which also works very well for your DAW. I will also add three slow running LFO's because Grand Terminal only has two.

The video features 'Are Friends Electric?' from Tubeway Army, composed by Gary Numan. It's a song that can obviously be played on a modular and its also a personal tribute to Gary who made me fall in love with synthesizers when I was just a kid. It felt really good to 'cover' this one, but it also demonstrates the power of the Shuttle Control.

It was originally played on a Moog model D, so I used the sawtooth oscillators and the ladder filters for this patch. Queen of Pentacles is doing the beats."

Sonicsmith ConVertor E1 introduction, Eurorack pitch-tracking synthesizer


Sonicsmith

"The ConVertor E1 is not a marginal improvement. It's actually a total redesign of every aspect from the ground up, supplemented by a slew of new features. Don't let its small size fool you. This 3-PCB sandwiched module was designed to stay narrow so we can stack multiple units side by side for polyphonic sets. Only 100 units are expected to be manufactured for 2021."



via Sonicsmith

"ACO/VCO pitch tracking, expandable oscillator alongside a feature-rich, studio preamp.

The ConVertor E1 merges the pro-studio into the Eurorack modular synth into what can be called the ultimate “synth channel”. With its pitch tracking DCO alongside a preamp with many pro features for the instrumentalists and vocalist, or for the working musician professional/sound engineer/designer. All functions in the ConVertor E1 are digitally controlled and can be saved/recalled as presets for a plug n’ play, intuitive performance while leaving you with analog CV outs to continue your sonic journey. With MIDI 2.0 ready digital interfacing option, firmware and hardware expansion, and polyphonic options, the ConVertor E1 is an extremely versatile tool.

Currently receiving pre-orders, limited production run. Shipping late March 2021."

Haken Continuum / EaganMatrix - Modifying Existing Presets (Vivaldi Largo)


EaganMatrix Programming

"Experimenting with taking a couple of the most iconic EaganMatrix presets and modifying them to suit the needs of a particular piece - here Vivaldi, but the idea of starting with existing presets and modifying them is where you should begin your EaganMatrix study. Here the "Tin Whistle" preset is transposed down and octave and the delay lines returned to be best suited for a soprano/sopranino recorder. A bit of breath is added and the Y based octave shift is removed to make it easier to play as a recorder. The bass line takes the "VlnVlaVlcBass1" preset, removes the string noise to allow a second String Harman to be added a bit detuned and optionally shifted down an octave with added delay. The overall effect is to turn the original solo string sounding preset into a more orchestral version which sounds very nice in the low register. (Camtasia seems to have made the video a bit out of sync with the audio recording but you get the idea)."

ESK - Jam with SEM, OP-Z and Finegear Dust Collector FX


Metunar

"Jam with a Tom Oberheim SEM analog synthesizer driven by the OP-Z.
The OP-Z does the drums and some synth sounds.
The output of the OP-Z goes through the Tape Saturation of the Dust Collector FX.
The SEM gets the Phaser, Delay and Spring Reverb FX of the Finegear Dust Collector.
Direct recording with mastering.

µTune : The MPE Update! And introducing the Tubbutec USB Bridge :)


Synth Diy Guy

"We revisit the µTune with more expanders, an MPE friendly update (quick setup and output smoothing). And we check out the USB Bridge A, which powers my Linnstrument while sending data to the µTune.

Synth Stuff Ep. 69 - Moog Little Phatty


tritonrecordings

"Episode 69...nice. Think back to the mid-2000s, a world dominated by Motif/ Triton/ Fantom/ workstations and virtual instruments. Moog arose from the ashes with the Voyager, but then came the Little Phatty as an affordable (comparatively speaking) analog synthesizer. It was also the final synth to have Bob Moog's hand in development before his passing. In time came the Microbrutes and Minilogues and etc. that we have now, but the Little Phatty was a hugely important milestone in the road that has led us to the abundance of analog synthesizers available today. I believe this white model is a 'Stage II' model. I recently got an Eventide Space pedal (highly recommended) and used it here for some liveliness."
