The Florian Schneider Collection to Be Auctioned at JULIEN*S November 19
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via JULIEN*S
"THE FLORIAN SCHNEIDER COLLECTION
Auction to be held at Musician's Hall of Fame & Museum, Nashville, on November 19
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

10/12/25 Roland SH-101 + Peavey 1310 + Yamaha EM-100 + CXM 1978
video upload by Cfpp0
"Transposing a sequence on the Roland SH-101, with it’s audio output running though a Peavey 1310 delay, with one output panned center in the Yamaha EM-100 mixer, with the EM-100 internal spring reverb. The other 1310 output runs through another Peavey 1310 delay, which also runs through the EM-100, panned left, with spring reverb and a hotter impedance. There is also a little bit of stereo reverb blended on the CXM 1978.

13 mile run, Canadian jets, Italian parade"

The Rmif Opus string synthesizer from the USSR
video upload by RetroSound
"(c)2007-25 by RetroSound
supported by UVI: http://bit.ly/retrosound-uvi
❤️ Support #RetroSound channel: https://retrosound.creator-spring.com
Theme From A Summer Place by Percy Faith (1959)
Written from Max Steiner
I used my old soviet trio RMIF Opus string synthesizer, Elektronika EM-26 vocoder/strings, Alisa 1377 analog synthesizer and some orchestral samples from my Emax sample library.
This cover song series contains my own recreations of my favourite songs from the last 50 years. The original music from which I take inspiration belong to their respective owners. I recreate tracks only for personal passion and to pay homage to these tracks.
My intention is not to create covers that sound exactly like the original (if you want to hear identical sounds, please listen the original). It's more of an inspiration with my sounds from the old synthesizers from the past and of course the great appreciation for the original performers and producers."

Liminal Space Update: Haunted Digital Reverb Gets a GUI
video upload by Keith Crosley
"Liminal Space is my 'haunted digital reverb'... It used to be "headless" but now it has a GUI! And now available in VST3 format!! Just a quick touchbase here about this project. Yeah, there are likely still some bugs (please report any that you find... I'll fix 'em!), but it's coming along. Grab your immediate-mode interface and come along with me to a world of infinite reverb-erb-erb-erb in this echoes-a-go-go episode of your favorite talky synthesizer content show."

8/24/25 Roland SBX-80 clocks a pair of Pasco Scientific 9301 + Yamaha EM-100 + Alesis MIDIVERB II
video upload by Cfpp0
"8/24/25 Roland SBX-80 clocks a pair of Pasco Scientific 9301 dual function generators + Yamaha EM-100 + Alesis MIDIVERB II
The Roland SBX-80 is set to 80 bpm, time base 1. The time base output is boosted by the right Pasco Scientific 9301 microphone preamplifier, then patched to the modulation inputs on both 9301s. The spring reverb is the internal tank from the Yamaha EM-100 mixing the two 9301s. A stereo reversed reverb from the Alesis MIDIVERB II creates the stereo echo."

EMS Putney s/n 377 and DK.1 s/n 2090
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
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.
"This is the second and sadly last Putney / DK.1 combo to come to VEMIA from Cardiff University Electronic Music Studio - one of the first and biggest electronic music studios in the world, with six VCS3s and then a Synthi 100. Another of the VCS3s from the studio is the featured instrument in the Wikipedia article https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/0/02/EMS_VCS_3.jpg - note the exact same type of security tag and engraving (E M Studio). The Wikipedia one is s/n 143. This Putney / VCS3 is s/n 377. The DK.1 is s/n 2090. Cosmetic condition is very good for things that are over 50 years old. There is considerable wear to the top panel silk-screening, and a few minor marks in the woodwork, but otherwise everything is lovely. The silk-screening around the matrix is in excellent condition - much better than average - and the matrix itself is very good. As well as looking great, they are in perfect working order, thoroughly serviced in September 2024 by EMS expert Lucid. The servicing includes replacement of all noisy pots and a correct set of matrix pins, all proper spec and sourced from Robin Wood at EMS. (Total invoice just under £1K).
The extra switch on the DK.1 reverses the dynamic voltage from the keyboard - perhaps in response to Carlos' criticism about the voltage as originally designed being negative. Lucid suspects this is an original EMS mod (and is identical to the other Cardiff Uni model we auctioned in April). **Now with one of Robin Wood's excellent padded covers for the VCS3 - money very well spent indeed. ** Packing at VEMIA: 30GBP."
