Flame Maander-M Desktop Eurorack Wavetable Synth

A few pics via CONTROL

New version demo here, previous version in white here.

Details:

"A Streamlined Classic! Mäander-M Wavetable Synth with Analog Filterbank & Sequencer

The Flame MÄANDER-M is a compact reimagining of a well-regarded classic from the Flame lineup — now more affordable and streamlined, but still packed with the same sonic depth. At its core is a wavetable synth engine, fed into the 12-channel analog bandpass filter bank, controlled by the internal pattern sequencer.

Sound sources include a polyphonic wavetable and FM oscillator, an analog white noise generator and an external audio input. The internal sequencer offers one polyphonic note track (up to 4-voice chords) and 14 mono tracks. The latter are dedicated to the filter channels, the audio input, and the noise source. Each track has its own VCA with individual envelope control and is accessible via MIDI notes.

Patterns can be created and saved as patches, and played live with ease. The built-in arpeggiator and keyboard scaler make the MÄANDER a powerful tool for live jamming and generative sequencing. Updates, patch management, and wavetable loading are handled conveniently via MIDI SysEx.

New in this version: direct oscillator output, stereo noise output, and stereo audio input. Mäander comes fully mounted in a powered 56HP wooden skiff to get started right away.

The Mäander module comes with a custom-made 56HP Eurorack case. Consisting of black anodised aluminium half-shells with wooden side panels, the case has a desk-style design. It includes a built-in power supply (+5V, +12V and -12V, each with an output current of 500 mA) and a plug-in power supply (9–18 V, 18 W), and can therefore also be used as a separate Eurorack case with other modules. The case is manufactured entirely in Germany, and the elegant wooden side panels are crafted from locally sourced wood, including cherry and elm."

PlantsSystem-BlackPoint

video upload by plantssystem

"PlantsSystem 'BlackPoint' is a techno sound imbued with a pitch-black texture, constructed using Cyan/n and Rebirth. Swelling low frequencies, inorganic particles of noise, and sharp, cutting synth lines intertwine beneath the minimalist beat, creating a dark groove that draws you into the depths of darkness.
The simple yet powerfully propulsive rhythm creates a profound and tense soundscape, exquisitely blending the transparent texture of Cyan/n with the hard-edged analog feel of Rebirth. The unique atmosphere, a blend of cold and heat, paints a profound worldview throughout the track.

Antonus 2600 - Test Drive 2

video upload by Tumeni Knobs

Part 1 here

"This is an extended version of the patch I created for the Antonus 'Patch Challenge'. The 90 second version was featured on their social media sites. :-) I really enjoyed listening to this patch and messing around with it, so thought I should record a longer version. This is a combination of generative and performance patching in that I could let it run for hours and it would be dynamic enough to listen to in the background, but it also was good fun to actively mess around with.

The hardware is the Antonus 2600 DIY version, with the Antonus SidecARP Eurorack expansion case, the Arturia KeyStep Pro and Fractal Audio VP4.

SidecARP modules are, from left to right:
ALM - Pamela's New Workout
Stochastic Instruments - Stochastic Inspiration Generator
Qu-Bit - Surface
Addac - Swell Physics
Molten Modular - Motion MTR
Black Corporation - Deckard's Voice
Make Noise - Mimeophon
Qu-Bit - Nautilus,
ALM - S.B.G Pro
Roland - 531 Mixer

KSP provides a clock signal to PNW and the five step "anchor" arpeggio to the 2600 Osc 1. SIG provides three separate sequences to ARP Osc 3, Surface and Deckard's Voice. The notes are based on the Dm scale. 2600 Osc 2 is LFOing the Cutoff. 2600 Noise is randomly mixed in for added texture. VP4 is used for some subtle flanger and reverb on the 2600 (through the S.B.G. Pro), but I also mix in some clock-sync'd panning and some delay. Surface goes into Nautilus and Deckard goes into Mimeophon. All mixed together in the Roland 531 mixer. Recorded on iPhone 12 Max through an iRig Pro from 531 line outs."

Black Corp Kijimi MK2 sound exploration no talking

video upload by Ken Flux Pierce Fluxwithit

"Kijimi MK2 has landed in the studio and I am enjoying exploring its capabilities, quirks and raw analog sounds. This video is a no talking pretty raw exploration. exploring modulation and creating custom presets. All sounds were created from INIT to give a fresh slate.

Kijimi MK 2 is an 8 voice analog synth inspired by the RSF Polykobal from Black Corp's website

DEEP 8-VOICE ARCHITECTURE
Each of KIJIMI ’s 8 voices features 2 analog oscillators each with a square sub-bass oscillator, for buttery timbres with extensive sound design options. The sub-oscillator produces an octave lower than the combined VCO1 and VCO2 outputs, meaning you can tune two sub-pitches. Hard sync is available in VCO sync and VCO1-2 and 2-1 configurations for maximum flexibility. There’s also a noise source for adding bite and percussion components. A rich lowpass filter is built around the legendary 2140 chip and the ability to frequency-modulate it via VCO2, creates a full range of sounds from metallic and aggressive to subtle. Both filter cutoff and resonance are available as modulation destinations."

Morphor ECHON 6 BBD Resonator Synth Now Open for Pre-Orders

Morphor's ECHON 6 pre-orders are now open at Perfect Circuit

Press release follows:

Morphor marks upcoming availability of ECHON 6 as world’s first polysynth based around analogue BBD resonators by announcing opening of pre-orders

GHENT, BELGIUM: having twice turned heads and opened ears thanks to show-stealing showcases at SUPERBOOTH25, May 8-10, FEZ-Berlin, Germany and Machina Bristronica 2025, September 27-28, Bristol, UK, Morphor marks upcoming availability of its eagerly-awaited ECHON 6 — being billed as the world’s first polyphonic synthesizer based around BBD (Bucket-Brigade Delay) resonators, building upon the Belgium-based collective of artists, engineers, and musicians with a passion for creative sound experience and radical acoustic ideas’ illustrious Eurorack expertise in that area as its inaugural standalone (rack-mountable) desktop design — by announcing the opening of pre-orders as of October 23…

As an ANALOGUE POLYPHONIC MULTI-TIMBRAL BBD SYNTHESIZER — helpfully highlighted by the on point wording worked tastefully into its fitting front panel design’s execution, ECHON 6 brings the principals of modal synthesis into the analogue domain. Far from reimagining a digital concept with modern analogue circuitry, it readily redefines how resonance and excitation can interact. And as the world’s first polyphonic synthesizer based around BBD resonators, no less, each of its six voices features a discrete BBD RESONATOR that tracks the keyboard, producing organic overtones and complex harmonic depth. Duly allowing its users to excite those resonators in creative ways, ECHON 6 can generate anything from plucked and bowed strings over leads and basses to big pads and evolving soundscapes. Combining comprehensive multi-timbral capabilities, a 9 x 32 modulation matrix, a full analogue signal path, and a one-knob-per-function approach, ECHON 6 ultimately unites experimental sound design with classic polyphony. Indeed, its architecture invites exploration at every stage of that analogue signal path.

Make Noise Black & Gold Shared System ++

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this Reverb listing

"The Black and Gold Shared System is the latest revision of MakeNoise's early flagship. The star of the system is undoubtedly the DPO; a rich implementation of the West Coast complex oscillator pioneered by Don Buchla. Capable of wide range of tones with multiple outputs available simultaneously. It can also be used as 2 completely independent oscillators. The interaction of the 2 oscillators is high dynamic via the integrated mod bus and enhanced by a unique 'follow' circuit.

VCA, mixing and 'gate' functionality is provided by the Optomix and Moddemix, the latter of which also includes a unique ring mod implementation.

The DPO is ably supported by a wide variety of control options including a highly interactive touch interface as well as sophisticated and dynamic rhythmic control.

This unit was originally purchased with the mk1 version of Rene. It has been upgraded with the mk2 and an additional Brains module was added to the Pressure Points module to enhance the rhythmic potential of the interface.

I am including the original mk1 to enable it to be reset to original condition of if you want to explore a slightly simpler sequencing option.

The system is arguably a richer more up-to-date example Buchla's Music Easel that trades richer sequencing potential for the larger keyboard of the Buchla instrument."

An incredible collection of more than 450 artifacts from the life and career of Florian Schneider, co-founder of the pioneer electronic band Kraftwerk."

Pics and videos featuring some of the gear below, and his Lederhosen for good measure (thanks greg!).

Update: the post has been fully updated with all the synth related gear. This may just well be the longest post to be featured on the site. I wanted to capture all the pics for all of the details including notes, scuffs, and of course serial numbers. It's an interesting look into what he used, the condition he keped his gear, in some cases, how he actually used his gear. Note the phonetics on the keys of the Casio CZ-101 and DX-100. Note the Midi Switch Box with a built-in speaker? What's that about? Note the camouflage key strap on the Korg RK-100 Remote Keyboard. Did he pick it out himself or did the keytar just come with it? Note the repeat midi controllers and the MIDI saxaphones. Wind was his primary instrument. You'll find a ton of the acoustic gear he used in the other listings. This is a fascinating insight into both what and how he used his gear.

Rack Mount Sennheiser VSM-201 Vocoder

Starting Bid $5,000

Estimate $20,000 - $40,000 USD

A late 1970s Sennheiser VSM 201 Vocoder with no serial number from the personal studio and collection of Florian Schneider of Kraftwerk (see images). While it’s said that only a few dozen of these Vocoders were produced, a few examples made it into the hands of forward-thinking musical artists including Herbie Hancock, Daft Punk, and of course, Kraftwerk, who used a VSM-201 like this on their albums Man Machine (1978) and Computerworld (1981). The VSM-201 has an intelligible sound that has not yet been bested by modern gear. Includes power cable. This VSM-201 has been removed from its wooden enclosure (which bears the serial number plate) and modified with a metal rack mount casing, presumably for live use. Requires 240v, IEC power cable not included.

Dimensions: 19 x 9 x 9 inches

Category: Kraftwerk, Equipment

Provenance: PROVENANCE From the Estate of Florian Schneider

RITM-2 Synthesizer (1982) - 1 OSC Clone Moog Prodigy

video upload by LFOstore

"According to information that is actively circulating and being replicated on the Internet, the RITM-2 synthesizer was created in 1982 by Viktor Anatolyevich Nikulin, an engineer at the Kirov Musical Instruments Factory, at the request of a musician friend.

The device was well-received by the company's management, and in 1984, it was put into mass production, which continued for 10 years. During this time, the instrument's design underwent three further improvements. It was the only Soviet synthesizer where all components and controls were housed on a single printed circuit board.

Functionally, it consists of one tone generator, a noise generator, a sound signal mixer (triangle, saw, rectangle, noise), a low-pass filter, two full-format envelope generators (attack, decay, sustain, aftertouch), and a low-frequency modulation generator. It is a portable keyboard instrument weighing approximately 9 kg, housed in a plywood case with a lid.

The front panel had two versions: black and white. The main feature of the instrument, which determined its character, long life, and fame in the professional environment, was its unique and harsh sound.

The production capabilities of the enterprise were quite modest, and only about three thousand instruments were produced over the course of 10 years. RITM-2 was produced exclusively on orders from the administrations of houses and palaces of culture, as well as from leading communist enterprises that had their own musical groups.

During the Soviet period, it was impossible to purchase a rare instrument on the open market, and the RITM-2 was not widely known among musicians who were not affiliated with amateur groups. It was not until after 1993, when the Soviet government's support for amateur music, along with the cultural palaces and the Soviet government itself, ceased to exist, that the RITM-2 synthesizer began to find its way into the hands of professional musicians both in Russia and abroad.

The electronic musical synthesizer Rhythm-2 is a single-voice
keyboard instrument designed for solo, ensemble, orchestral performance of musical works of various genres, as well as for educational purposes and obtaining new sound effects. It can be used both in pop orchestras and at home in conjunction with an amplifier-acoustic device having an input sensitivity of no worse than 0.775. It is possible to use a low-frequency amplifier of a radio receiver, TV, tape recorder. The sound quality of the synthesizer will depend on the quality of the amplifier-acoustic device used.
On the Rhythm-2 synthesizer, it is possible to imitate the sound of classical musical instruments (keyboard, string, reed, percussion) with a certain degree of authenticity and create original sound effects (wind noise, the sound of a passing train, the sound of a sea wave, a shot and the whistle of a bullet).

The synthesizer can be used to play melodies with randomly changing pitch or timbre."

Future Retro Vectra Prototype with Black/Gold Faceplate SN 0001

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this Reverb listing

"One of only 2 known Vectras with an early Black/Gold faceplate which was never put into production. No Black Gold keyboards were ever made as far as I know. These were prototypes. This unit is fully working with all mods and upgrades including a firmware upgrade to version 2. Includes box, packing, manuals, and Universal power supply. The other known unit has purple heartwood endcaps and ALSO features a 001 serial number. These are the only units like this known to exist. Will be double boxed for safe delivery worldwide.

The Vectra is a unique hybrid synthesizer with a flexible architecture that allows many different forms of synthesis to be realized. It’s the best of both worlds… The Vectra utilizes digital oscillators, ring modulators, noise sources, vector mixer, LFO’s, complex envelopes, and modulation routings providing many capabilities that would be very difficult to produce with analog circuitry alone. This allows for accurate tuning, repeatability of complex patches, and patch storage. The Vectra also provides a multi-mode analog filter, VCA, and final output, as these provide the best sonic qualities."
