"This collection of vintage synthesizers has grown with me for years. Most all of these instruments have been used on many projects, including VeggieTales, a variety of remixes, and many PlayStation video games and marketing and promotional discs. Most recently they were used on the Mass Effect Andromeda video games soundtrack. They have also been sampled and are part of the SoundVault Collection and the Kurzweil Analog Collection for the K2000 series samplers. VEMIA note: to forestall many inquiries, The seller’s idea is that he wants to sell it as a whole. That may or may not work out in this auction. If it doesn’t, obviously he’ll be free to do whatever he wants after the auction finishes.
It all works. Everything has been kept in a clean, smoke-free, climate-controlled studio. I have always fixed things myself, so everything is operational and sounding great. I have repair notes on the synths that received attention, though most of them have worked great over the years, without much need for repairs. There are also several MIDI to CV converters so they can all be controlled by computer, plus cables if desired. And a few have cases and manuals.

"Burg is a great way to start with modular synthesis and plugging in patchcables ;) It provides you with all necessary tools to start your modular journey now. It is a standalone synth voice, complex multi FX processor, controller for external gear or all at once. The perfect companion to any setup, if you already have modular stuff, wanna connect with instruments or other gear. It can work for many different musical approaches and creative processes, it bridges between the analog modular world and external gear. The unique combination of circuits let you customize your desired sound in all analogue ways.
18 individual and characterful modules allow you to explore beautiful and weird interactions. You can easily create dynamic melodies, harmonic drones, weird noises and outer space sound effects. If you plug-in an instrument, a microphone, your favorite tunes or the internal sounds, it is easy to modulate any signal with a crispy filter (wasp-style), a wavefolder, some heavy distortion and a double delay to glitch your mind away. With 55 patching points in total, possible combinations are almost endless. The intuitive touchpad interface gives easy control over multiple CV and gate signals at the same time and is the main modulation source of the Burg system.
Two light dependent controllers guarantee a unique behavior and can be modified easily according to your needs or for experiments. Also other modules can be modified by exchanging components on the back plate, so customizing the frequency range of the oscillators/LFOs or shaping your individual clipping distortion with different types of diodes is possible.
There are two power bus connectors on the backplate so Burg can be used as a power supply for other eurorack modules as well. The internal power supply can be powered with USB-C (barrel jack) from 9V to 18V (center positive) and can work as a power supply for small modular racks using a flying bus cable."
"The Discombobulator - a Noisebug-designed Tangible Waves system in the AE Modular format, a great entry to the format and an even better addition to an existing AE Modular rig.
"Djupviks Elektronik's Bunker Archaeology II is a Eurorack "bunker simulator" - an overdriven digital reverb feeding a frequency-driven tremolo circuit. Inspired by Paul Virilio's photographic documentation of the abandoned Atlantic Wall fortifications, it's lo-fi, grainy, and full of character.
The MkII addresses the rough edges of the original: a proper wasp-style filter with resonance and CV control, CV over feedback, a rebuilt static circuit that actually responds across its full range, and a clock output for those irregular rhythms.
This isn't your pristine shimmer reverb. If you want transmissions from a crumbling concrete structure on the Normandy coast, this is the territory.

In this patch the A-112 is used as a lofi effect in the feedback loop of the A-119 Spring Reverb. All sounds are out of the system!
The bassline is a combination of the A-110-2 Basic VCO and the A-124 Wasp Filter. The A-188-1 BBD is used as a Karplus-Strong synthesizer.
"@vikingsade Djupviks Gats is a grainy reverb feeding into a wasp-style bandpass filter, with sample-and-hold modulation built into the signal path. By default, it samples your incoming audio to modulate the filter cutoff - creating stepped, glitchy textures that respond to your playing dynamics. The offset control lets you shape that response from aggressive ducking through to keeping the filter permanently cracked open.
In this video I walk through the module and show a couple of patches demonstrating what it can do.
Features:
Grainy reverb into wasp-style bandpass filter
Internal sample-and-hold with adjustable clock
S&H can sample audio or external sources
Bipolar offset control for shaping filter response
Pre/post feedback switch
External clock sync"

"Very rare “Special” edition of the Wasp in wooden cabinet, built in power supply and metal panel with gold lettering. Probably the rarest of all EDP products as likely less than 40 ever made. In good condition, and all working well. Note that there are three non original knobs (albeit very similar). 240V mains powered."

"Jasper Monosynth. This is a clone of the classic EDP Wasp synth. Professionally built. Hardwood end cheeks. Inbuilt MIDI Interface. Enhanced mode option fitted (adds a slow moving PWM square wave to both oscillators) Sounds Excellent. I will include a CD with technical info. Will require a 9V DC centre positive power adapter. more info on the modwiggler forum.."
"Modcan and Cyndustries four panel Serge/Banana modular synth owned by Rich Costey, used on albums by Muse, Deathcab For Cutie, many others. contains the following modules:
"FRESHLY SERVICED! keybed cleaned, all pots cleaned, new battery, Tauntek MIDI added.
This is hands down my favorite mono synth of all time, such a unique instrument! Designed by Chris Hughes who also designed the WASP and several products for Novation among other things, IMO OSCar was his greatest product. I am only selling as I have two otherwise I'd never let it go! Hands down the best analog dual multi-mode filter in existence! There's additive synthesis in the way of building waveforms by adding harmonics, there's presets, there's an amazing sequencer and arppegiater, there's duophonic functionality. You can get all kinds of crazy vowel/vocal sounds."
"‘MUM M8 DSP’ is a low pass filter plug-in emulating the filter used in the classic Akai S950 12 bit sampler with the addition of resonance, saturation and bit depth reduction. This in turn emulates our MUM M8 eurorack module which uses a similar filter design.
In this video we take a quick look at the MUM M8 DSP processing multiple sources in Ableton Live.
The low pass filter gives the recognisable super smooth vacuum like tone sucking sound which works magic on complex sources. The addition of clipped overdrive and intentionally aggressive self oscillating resonance compliment the smooth filter core by juxtaposing it into more wasp like territory with acidic squeals and a more gritty sound.
Unique to the plug-in are a clock bleed switch, introducing audible artifacts into the filter path emulating some of the quirks of the original hardware, and a Bit Depth control for downsampling the input for a more character-rich output.
‘MUM M8 DSP’ offers an authentic digital emulation of the original hardware, recreating its distinct sonic character for use for use in your DAW.
"Part 1 of a 2 part series introducing the Mörser filter from @vikingsade Djupviks Elektronik.
Mörser takes the wildest analogue synth filter from the the EDP Wasp, and dials up the noise, grit and chaos to 11. In stereo.
Mörser is a stereo filter with low pass, band pass, independent resonance and shared cutoff (and CV). There’s distortion outputs for some extra gnarl, and a clocks digital noise source, hardwired to both the inputs and the CV.
This video explores the basic sounds and functions paired with an analogue VCO. I’ll share a video next week with some more creative patching and different sound sources."
