Details via NRSynth (Google translated)

Oberheim Legacy: In 1974, Tom Oberheim imagined a small synth as an accessory to his DS-2A digital sequencer. But it was Dennis P Collins, a gifted ARP engineer, who designed the multimode filter of the Synth Expander Module (SEM). This unique filter is a 12 db filter that cannot deny its lineage with the ARP 1047 (ARP 2500) and ARP 2023 (white Odyssey MK1) filters, 12 db filters also designed by Dennis P Collins. With two very fat VCOs and a devastating sync (also close to the Odyssey VCOs), the small SEM offers a powerful sound, very present in the mix and very different from Moog and other synths with 24 db filters. So despite its simplicity and a filter that does not enter self-oscillation, we can get a lot of sounds out of it. Accessible and easy to use, the SEM is a success. In 1975, Tom paired first two, then four, into a huge keyboard case, creating the first "true" polyphonic instrument in history, the "Four Voices." In 1976, the SEM was even expanded to eight. Nicknamed the "White Elephant," its sound was as enormous as the instrument itself! But in 1978, the brilliant Prophet-5 made it obsolete, and Tom designed the OB-X, whose channel cards were also clones of the SEM. Subsequently, the OB-XA and OB-8 used Curtis chipsets and no longer had quite the same sound. In 2010, Oberheim reissued the SEM identically, but with all surface-mount components. In 2011, the SEM PRO added just a MIDI interface.

NRsynth "Solo": This is an "extended" version of the SEM, handcrafted with traditional through-hole components. Only the envelopes have been modified for a punchier result; the rest is identical to the original synth. Additionally, the Solo features a sub-oscillator, a glide, white noise, and many more modulation options than the SEM. MIDI velocity is also supported. Finally, the white metal case gives way to a luxurious, classically crafted cabinet with waxed oak sides and black tolex, similar to a Marshall amp.

A patchbook of all Séraphin Palmeri's sounds is included with the device.

Specifications:

VCO: Two discrete VCOs with hard sync, saw, pulse + PW (same as SEM)
Sub-oscillator: Pulse wave – 1 octave below VCO1.
Noise: 100% analog white noise
Multimode 12 dB filter: Same as SEM with LPF, HPF, notch, and bandpass mode. VCA: Analog (same as SEM)
LFO: Analog, triangle wave (same as SEM)

Details on XILS-lab's The Eighty

You might remember the teaser video and announcement video.

The press release with additional details follows:

XILS-lab launches The Eighty as virtual Vangelis soundalike homage to iconic Seventies synth classic, faithful to the original and enhanced for the future

GRENOBLE, FRANCE: XILS-lab is proud to launch The Eighty — effectively acting as a virtual Vangelis soundalike homage to an iconic Seventies-vintage synth classic that the Academy Award-winning Greek musician, composer, and producer of electronic, progressive, ambient, and classical orchestral music made into his signature sound, thanks to its exceptionally complete performer expression features (such as a layered keyboard that was both velocity- and pressure-sensitive in action, albeit, unlike most keyboards of the time, that aftertouch could be applied to individual voices, and a ribbon controller allowing for polyphonic pitch- bends and glissandos), faithful to the original and enhanced for the future as the latest entry into the audio software company’s lengthening lineup of virtual instruments par excellence — as of January 14…

It is fair to say that Bladerunner — the now-classic Ridley Scott-directed sci-fi film from 1982 set in a dystopian future Los Angeles of 2019 — is, for many, inextricably linked with Vangelis’ BAFTA- and Golden Globe-nominated score, showcasing his superlative skills with that iconic Seventies-vintage synth classic that was arguably as ahead of its time as that trailblazing score to which its sound subsequently became inextricably linked in itself. Much missed, Vangelis left this mortal coil in 2022, sadly, while the relatively few remaining fully operational examples of Yamaha’s CS-80 synth — supporting true eight-voice polyphony, with two independent synthesizer layers per voice each with its own set of front panel controls, in addition to a number of hardwired preset voice settings and four parameter settings stores based on banks of subminiature potentiometers — that musically meant so much to him are highly coveted by high-flying collectors, commanding eye-watering prices extending into high five-figure territory, putting them well beyond the reach of mere musical mortals... not that many could comfortably carry one anyway as they weigh in at a back-breaking 100kg/220lbs (including built-in hard case), regardless of how deep their pockets may well be!

Blindfold Showdown: Muse vs. Minimoog Model D – Can You Hear the Difference?

video upload by Allen Michael

"Yeah, when I go out to a gig or studio sesh I dont wanna lug around my entire analog synth rig... unless I'm doing something important like producing Foreigner or the next Styx ballad. So if your a groovy cat, you are probably wondering if the new muse can do convincing basic or complex mono minimoog model d sounds.

This video has 8 audio listening examples. Let your ears decide which sound is the muse or the minimoog. I will post the answers to the blind test soon! I had to match these patches by ear to the best of my ability... (im human.. cut me some slack).

BTW, if you own or plan on buying a muse I've created some bread & butter type patches for the synth you can download free for a limited time. I wasn't too happy with the presets the muse came with. So to save time I created 2 banks of 80s pop inspired stuff. A demo of the sounds can also be found on my channel or type in MUSE ALLEN MICHAEL.

You can download the patches here: https://allenmichaelproductions.com/m...

BLESSINGS TO YOU ALL.

Crumar Bit-One (HKA Midi Upgrade) SN 00613

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

via this listing

"Such a sweet sounding synth, really nothing quite like it! The Crumar Bit One is a main stay of synth-waver Com Truise, but its true roots belong to Italo Disco. With two DCO's it really is on par with the Juno series (if only it had sliders and that slick chorus). Two LFO's and Envelopes round out this beast to make a superb piece of kit.

Sadly, the Bit One fell far short of glory in the midi department, but this has been remedied by the installation of the HKA midi kit in this unit. This upgrade does the following:

Local keyboard and external MIDI can be used at the same time - plugging a cable into the MIDI IN socket no longer disables the local keyboard. Local control can be turned off in setup mode if desired.

Receiving channel for external MIDI can be set on the synth itself, and is remembered on power-off. (Transmitted MIDI channel is fixed on channel 1)

MIDI handling is much more reliable. The board filters out all other channels before they get to the main CPU, also ignoring any messages that it cannot use, so there are no more MIDI overload-caused crashes, stuck notes etc.

Now receives MIDI pitch bend (±2 semitone range) and mod wheel. MIDI mod wheel is provided by a dedicated LFO, independent from the Bit One's own two LFOs. The modulation depth can also be controlled by MIDI channel aftertouch.

Receives MIDI sustain pedal (CC 64), which is used to control the Bit One's hold functionality.

Adds an arpeggiator with up, down, up + down and random modes. (Requires an external MIDI clock source such as a drum machine)

The Bit One also has some trouble with memory and battery longevity. This unit saves patches 10-60, and some are blank. I have programmed the blank patches and had success saving them, but perhaps it is worth replacing the battery on this unit (its probably pretty old anyway).

While the lighting in the photos makes this particular Bit One look a little crusty, natural light does wonders and this unit is in tip top shape, a real gem. It has been well taken care of. The keys are a little yellow as well, but I've seen worse.

The headphone output is a little noisy, but the main outputs are clean as a whistle. You know, the outputs the do the heavy lifting."

Ensoniq ESQ-1 soundscape - Minutes till darkness

video upload by MIDERA

"I finally took the opportunity to make a video with the Ensoniq ESQ-1. I did a 'first impression video' and stumbled through it. Now I'm a little more well-versed. I actually had an overhead view of what I was doing, but the video wasn't syncing up properly, so I had to trash that one.

Wow - I think the ESQ sounds amazing. I'm really surprised honestly. It's not a 3rd Wave or anything, but - you can actually get some interesting 'wave shaping' on here by utilizing sync, which is what I was doing. Sounded fantastic and frankly, I liked it just as much as the 3rd wave.

And here's the thing - people complain that the ESQ doesn't update it's parameters in real time. Yeah - this kind of sucks with cutoff (maybe it would update in realtime with the mod wheel? If so, that is perfect, just haven't tried it yet). Well - I actually *prefer* it this way and I'll tell you why: because on things like the 3rd wave when you change a parameter, it immediately changes your sound and its jarring. On the ESQ, I can make changes and they only are apparent at the next key strike and that is absolutely great when I'm doing these live soundscapes. Yeah, sure, it would be nice to hear some things in real-time... but I thought it was perfect the way it was.

Very easy to get around on this thing for a mostly-button interface.
Final thoughts:
1) I'm surprised I hadn't bought an ESQ-1 earlier.
2) I think it sounds better than the Prophet 12, on par with or equal to the Ambika, different or maybe equal to the 3rd Wave although it can't exactly do the same thing...
3) Filters sound gorgeous. Surprised that they sort of step when the envelopes go slow, but actually it's kind of more like good character IMO.
4) How are these things so cheap given how good they are? How? Just because the interface looks bad? Not a knobby synth? Overly mass produced?

Fantastic synth. Wow."
