Akai Introduces MPC Key 37 G2 & MPC One G2
video uploads by Akai Professional
"Two ways to create. One MPC mindset. https://inmusic.to/5n8b3m62
The MPC One G2 and MPC Key 37 G2 introduce a new generation of standalone MPCs built around the same core idea: faster workflows and bigger creative potential. Both devices are powered by MPC3 and a new G2 eight-core processor, delivering significantly increased performance for larger sessions, faster load times, expanded track counts, and deeper plugin usage.
For beatmakers and producers who want the classic MPC feel in a compact desktop unit, MPC One G2 delivers next generation standalone power, MPC3’s modern track and arrangement tools, and USB-C hybrid connectivity—making it the most capable and future proof entry point into the MPC standalone ecosystem. https://inmusic.to/2p87e2nv
For producers and players who write on keys but want the speed and focus of an MPC workflow, MPC Key 37 G2 delivers next-generation standalone power, MPC3’s modern track and arrangement tools, and one-cable USB-C studio connectivity in a compact production keyboard that eliminates the laptop dependency. https://inmusic.to/yckvp6ef
Together, they represent two approaches to the same creative system. Whether you start on pads or keys both deliver a complete, modern MPC experience built to create, arrange, and finish music in one place, with the flexibility to plug into your studio setup when needed."

Oberheim FVS-1 Custom Built for Ronnie Montrose, Vintage 4 SEMs & 2 Sequencers
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this eBay listing
"Bought this 27 years ago from the keyboardist, Gary Hull, who played keyboard on 2 Montrose albums and also toured with him 1990-94. Gary also modified this Oberheim Four voice for Montrose to add sequencer functions. This Oberheim has 4 great sounding late 70's SEM Units and 2 later model Sequencer modules that are quantized, and output 4 channels to the 4 SEMs. A remote keyboard controlled by the Keyboard Module allows spilts and 4 note polyphony and many options for control. A programmed Expressionist MIDI to CV interface is included so the four voice is also controllable polyphonically over MIDI.
--
The Four SEMs have been calibrated tuned and checked for complete noise free operation in 2026. The keyboard has been leveled and bushings replaced and plays perfectly. In 2026 the power module and output module were restored by Synth Smith, an analog repair specialist with over 30 years working on analog synths. I did not change much from what Montrose had done to this synthesizer. He was well known for his customization skills. I did add VCF controls and pots for all the SEMs so you can control from remote LFO's. The Programmer has never been connected in the Oberheim since I have owned it. In 2026 the Programmer battery was replaced and testing revealed it does work, but is not wired, and wiring it would be a lot of new wiring.
INCLUDES:
Oberheim FVS-1 in Custom Metal Case 27.5 wide, 23.75 High, 5 deep(inches)
49 Key Keyboard in Custom Metal Case
2 keyboard cables, power cable, Manual and Notes
MIDI to CV Rack Convertor Expressionist Programmed ($650 refund if not needed)
Hard Shell Pro Road Case for Main Unit

Anubis - Amiga version
video upload by MIDI IN
"The music here was captured directly from the back of the Amiga. For the video, I had trouble with capturing the monitor output and composite looked terrible, so I pointed a camera at the little telly and it seems fine.
The .mod file (actually .med) should play on a variety of players but your mileage may vary. It'll sound best using Octamed Player. It sounds good to me in Hippo, but not so good in Eagle (distorted, for reasons I don't understand). It also plays on modern computers in players such as VLC, but it does seem that that's not respecting the proper volume attenuations that I've set for each instrument.

First try at making music for FM synthesis
video upload by MIDI IN
"I'm very happy that Ed Brindley has made this FM sound module for the RC2014 and similar computers. This is the technology used in early PC soundcards and synthesisers like the DX1000. This is my first go at tracking music for this sound card. I used Furnace Tracker, exported to .vgm and ran Ed's music player to play it. You're hearing the capture from the new sound card.
