"This is a very well kept Memomory Plus with all the original manual, schematic, factory program and sequences (plus other casettes, Moog expression pedal with old original box. What makes this extra special is it even include the original warranty card from the first owner with a date of purchase of April 20, 1983.
This was fully serviced by Nick Montoya of Santa Barbara. According to the previous owner( second owner) whom I bought it from. He spent over $2,000 for Nick’s service. Nick is the guy that Moog sent to various international countries to do repairs for high prize Moogs. I can send the video of him showing a demo of this keyboard.
After a good warm up (usually 15-30 minutes), all 6 voices tuned. Been playing it few hours a day and tunes each time I press auto tune. The sounds are amazing."

The Weirdest Synth Architecture Ever? The Luna Lunetta Synth Explained
video upload by Starsky Carr
"The first synth I've needed the manual to understand whats going on
What happens when a synthesizer throws away the traditional signal path and replaces it with logic gates, chaotic modulation and experimental sequencing? The Neutral Labs Luna is a modern Lunetta-style synthesizer that turns digital logic into sound – and it’s one of the most unusual instruments I’ve explored.
In this video I take a deep dive into the Luna Lunetta synthesizer, exploring how it works, why its architecture is so different from traditional subtractive synths, and how you can use its oscillators, logic circuits, modulation sources and built-in sequencers to create strange, evolving patterns and glitchy electronic textures.
Lunetta synths are inspired by DIY digital logic circuits built from CMOS chips rather than classic VCO-VCF-VCA designs. The result is a unique sound world somewhere between modular synthesis, generative sequencing and experimental electronic music.
We'll explore:
• What a Lunetta synthesizer actually is
• How the Neutral Labs Luna architecture works
• Using the dual oscillators and internal 64-step sequencers
• CV, gates and creative routing possibilities
• Generative patterns, glitches and chaotic rhythms
• Why Lunetta synths sound so different from traditional analog synths
If you're interested in experimental synthesis, modular workflows, generative music, CMOS logic synths, or unusual electronic instruments, the Luna is a fascinating machine.
Whether you’re a modular user, synth enthusiast, or just curious about alternative synthesis techniques, this instrument shows how far you can push sound design when you break the normal rules."

DEMO #1 Stylophone OTF Performance Sequencer
video upload by Stylophone
"Experience the first demo — pulse-pounding energy inspired by Giorgio Moroder’s 'The Chase'. Making long sequences from saved Memories on the OTF is as simple as pressing a button. The pattern is loaded instantly and in time, making jamming with them fun."

Dreamy Minimal Ambient with OP-1 field and norns shield | Warmth 2026-03-05 by atnr
video upload by atnr
"Ambient Engine (macOS)
https://store.atnr.net/downloads/ambi...
A piece created with @teenageengineering OP-1 field, @KOMAelektronik Field Kit, norns shield, NTS-1, and Ambient Engine. It is minimal ambient built from dreamy synth tones, distortion, and fragmented chorus textures.
On the OP-1 field, a 44 step phrase runs in a loop using the ENDLESS sequencer. The output is connected to. @strymon blueSky with reverb applied.
On the norns shield, Graintopia is launched and an electric piano sound from the CP-88 is recorded with phaser applied and processed with granular synthesis. The output runs through @ChaseBlissAudio LOSSY with EQ and reverb. In the outro, packet loss effect is used to create a lo fi texture while the sound fades out.
In the Field Kit, radio tuner audio is sent to the @KORG_INC NTS-1 where delay, chorus, and reverb are applied. The return signal is sent again to an AUX channel to create feedback and distortion.
In Ambient Engine, two voice samples are loaded and played with randomized playback ranges. Filter, MicroLoop, delay, and reverb are adjusted during playback."

Sequential Fourm Through Modular FX? (Full Signal Chain Breakdown)
video upload by Sundowner
"In this video I run the Sequential Fourm through my modular FX chain to explore how external processing transforms its sound.
This is a full signal chain breakdown, from sequencing to effects:
Sequencer: Squarp Hermod+
Reverb & Delay: Desmodus Versio
Textures & Processing: Rings and Beads
A hybrid setup combining Sequential Fourm, Eurorack modular effects, granular processing, resonators, ambient reverb and delay to create cinematic, evolving textures.
If you’re into modular synthesis, sound design and experimental FX chains, this one’s for you."

"Ok, I'm missing the day...
Can the DUAL UNDULA OSCILLATOR be an acid machine ?
It is up to you to judge...
But here is how to proceed.
A good opportunity to remind that the module's oscillators can work as filters"
