Synth P*rn Fest on VSE

Just your monthly synth p*rn thread on VSE. This one does have some nice shots though. Title link takes you there. And of course I referred them here. Shots saved here for posterity as eventually the VSE thread will dissapear into limbo.

Oberheim - New Flickr Shots

The System


Oberheim DMX


flickr by Ethan Callender. Two shots this time. I wanted the top shot and I wanted to show the logo. I love when manufacturers do that.

Title link takes you to the set.

White Roland

Remember Forat? Looks like he custom painted Madonna's keyboard player's rig as well (Roland Fantom, X7, SH-201, and V-synth); looks like the V-synth XT remains black and isolated in plexiglass. Title link takes you there.

Waldorf Nano Synth

Plug in board for the CME line of controllers. 198 Euro on Thomann. Title link takes you there.

"WALDORF NANO SYNTH PLUG IN BOARD FÃœR CME UF midikeyboards,synthesizerboard with 1000 sound, 24 voice polyphony, 16xMIDI multi mode"

I don't see anything on the Waldorf site. I wonder if it's a true synth with fully editable parameters or a scaled down preset synth.

"Vermona synthesizer is a monophonical 2 osc synth with a great moogish sound.It is one of the only analog synthesizers produced by German music company Vermona throughout the 1980's. It is a 2-VCO monophonic analog synthesizer. It has most basic analog edit parameters. A 24 dB/oct analog VCF filter with 4 knobs (Brilliance, CutOff, Resonance, Contour), a single LFO to modulate the VCO or VCF sections and a typical ADSR VCA envelope. There are preset VCF and VCA settings as well as a Manual mode.

Its sounds are pretty basic analog stuff. It makes a real nice analog bass. The nice effects on-board is the portamento-like Glide effect and Vibrato. Colorful knobs, a clean layout, vintage wood end-cheeks and a genuine analog sound. It's an interesting piece."

Wine Country Sequential Prophets

I recevied the following from Wine Country Sequential today. You might think the price is higher than one you can find elsewhere, but realize the piece of mind you get when buying one of these. A few years ago, I purchased a "perfect condition Prophet 5" of the bay. Of course it wasn't and it had a number of major problems I sent it to a tech who couldn't fix it, then off to Wine Country. It was so hosed I was left with the option of continuing on trying to repair it, paying for each step on the way, or trading it in towards a Wine Country Perfect Prophet. I traded it in and never regretted it. Had I known then what I know now I would have just gone for the Wine Country Prophet 5. It's been a few years and my Prophet 5 is still as good as new.
