Neuzeit Instruments Introduces DROP - Snapshot-based MIDI Control Center for Live Performance



Details follow:

"Which live performer doesn't know this situation: You build the tension to immeasurable heights, add another filter here, three more effects there, hands go up in the air, everyone's waiting for the big drop... and then you realize: You can't find your way out of the chaos you've created!

The sweat on your forehead drips onto your equipment, and in a firework of spraying sparks, your devices and your fans say goodbye forever...

Sequential Take 5: "Taking The Five" patches HD Demo - No Talking


video upload by Stefano Daino

"This is the demo of several patches included in the 'Taking the Five' Vol 1 & Vol 2, two libraries each of 64 sounds for the Sequential Take 5 synthesizer.

These patches aim to reproduce the sounds that characterized the music performed with the analog polyphonic synthesizers serie in the '80s, as well as the sounds that are only possible with a new generation analog synthesizer, which have the advantage of touch-sensitive, aftertouch keyboards, which have powerful programmable modulation matrices, and excellent built-in effects.

The 'Taking the Five' Vol 1 & Vol 2 for the Sequential Take 5 are available at https://www.dsp-quattro.com/dspquattr..."

"CEM Chip Power – Oberheim Xpander DNA – MIDI Capable

Step into vintage analog glory with the Akai EWI3020M, a rack-mounted monophonic synthesizer designed to pair with the EWI3020 wind controller—but just as capable when triggered via standard MIDI! Yes, it can be used without the wind controller, making it an incredible analog voice module for any MIDI-capable setup.

At its heart lies a Curtis CEM3394 voice chip—the same chip found in the legendary Oberheim Xpander—delivering warm, punchy, and expressive tones. Originally launched in the late '80s, the EWI3020M was part of Akai’s bold foray into wind synthesis, but its standalone capabilities and exceptional tone make it a sleeper hit for analog synth enthusiasts and modular-minded players alike.

Key Features:

Monophonic analog signal path with dual VCOs, VCF, VCA, LFO, and dual EGs
CEM3394 voice chip for rich, vintage sound
Wide modulation matrix: 7 sources, 10 destinations
50 patch slots (factory + user)
Waveforms include Triangle, Saw, Square, and Sync modes
Full MIDI In/Out for use with keyboards, sequencers, or DAWs
Rackmount format – a studio-friendly synth module with stage potential
Whether you're breathing life into it with a wind controller or sequencing it via MIDI, the EWI3020M is a versatile, expressive, and highly underrated gem in the analog world."

"Greetings everyone and hope you are having a lovely day. Im putting up for sale this rare very last member of Roland's fully analog drums era... 42 years ago. Instrument itself is in pretty good condition (few minor bruises and scratches, nothing major) and actual drum machine works perfectly (I cannot confirm the other features like chord or bass, since they are active only in cooperation with Roland HP keyboards). Also a sidenote, since it is a very early midi instrument and mainly designed to work with mentioned keyboards, midi works as clock in/out or start, but doesn't allow to trigger individual drums or accent. Unit was originally for Japanese 100V and has been internally switched to 240V and while I was at it, I have replaced power supply filtering capacitors with new ones for good measure. Thank you all the best."

"Kontrol S-Series keyboards now come with Arp on board, opening up a load of new possibilities for shaping your note sequences.

Original Sequential Circuits Prophet 10 (1016)

via this VEMIA listing

Click the auction link on top when you get there for additional listings.

VEMIA is Peter Forrest's auction house. He is the author of The A-Z of Analogue Synthesizer Books. Pic of the inside below.

"Vintage Sequential Circuits Prophet 10 Dual Manual Keyboard Synthesizer with Flight Case This Prophet 10 is in very good condition, and is fully functional, although the Braemer tape drive has not been tested. Has factory MIDI and sequencer, and the original blue Prophet-10 flight case on wheels. This may be one of the last Prophet-10s made, as the S/N is 0444. It's big and heavy!! Includes power cord, electronic copies of the operation manual and service information, and one original Sequential footswitch. The flight case foam is serviceable, but could use replacement. The synth is wrapped in plastic within the flight case. Full pictures are here [captured below]. By far the most prevalent of the original Prophet 10 models, the Prophet 10 Rev3 was a better built version than the previous 2 iterations for more consistent and reliable performance. It used Curtis Electronics Manufacturing chips, and featured 2 VCOs per voice, a low pass resonant filter with ADSR, LFO, & cv/gate controls. This rarely seen monster analog synth is by far one of the fattest and nicest vintage synthesizers.

Vintage Sequential Prophet 10 Rev3

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


via this listing

"This is an original Prophet-10 Rev 3 in all its analog glory! Finding one in great shape like this is a rare treat.

The Prophet-10 builds on the legendary Prophet-5 technology, offering endless creative possibilities. With its dual polyphony and two keyboards, this bad boy takes your sound to another level.

The real kicker? The 16-step sequencer! While we disabled it in this unit to improve stability you can still control the sequencer completely via MIDI and that’s actually a massive upgrade - You get all the creative power of the sequencer, but now with perfect sync to your other gear and the reliability of modern MIDI control.

This is a true collector’s item that still delivers that classic analog sound that made Sequential Circuits famous. So don’t miss out on this rare piece of history – it won’t be around for long."
