Custom Modular

Shot and details pulled from this auction. Via Fabio Masseti.

"This is a giant modular synth comprising around 72 modules, housed in a big wooden cabinet. The modules are either Doepfer, or Analogue Solutions, with a couple of home-brew modules. It has FIVE power supplies installed. The cabinet has carrying handles on each end and has seen only studio use:Never gigged.

The modules are - 2X master clocks / 4X 8-note sequencers / 4x Sequence length switches / 1X power switch / 1X PSU management module / 4X sequencer output length selector switch modules / 4X dual VCO / 1X single VCO / 3X LFO-noise-sample & hold / 1X dual quantiser / 1X signal switcher / 1X VC signal switcher / 1X 256 human allophone generator / 1X 256 wavetable VCO / 1X VC source / 6X Concussor percussion modules / 1X 4 channel mixer / 1X dual VCA / 1X buffer-mixer-invertor / 2X dual envelope gen / 2X single envelope gen / 1X envelope follower / 1X trigger delay / 1X signal switcher with LEDs / 1X ring modulator / 1X audio divider / 4X multimode filter-VCA / 1X Trautonium 4-bank filter / 2X synth VCF-Envelope gen-VCA / 2X MIDI to CV convertor / 1X joystick / 1X triple voltage source / 2X signal-control meters / 1X 8 channel mixer / 6X multiples/ 2X socket adaptors / 1X infra-red headphone transmitter for cordless headphone monitoring / 1X passive ring-modulator, and more. Also included in this offer is my CRT Oscilloscope. It's a Heathkit single beam unit; very useful for tuning VCOs into phase.

There's room for more modules too if you should wish to expand further. The cabinet is home built using a stained wood, designed for pride of place in my studio, and isn't bad, but you may feel you want to rehouse it in a cabinet more suitable for transportation to gigs. The back opens on hinges for getting inside.

There are FIVE power supplies, each with its own toroidal transformer (An.Sol.). Each supply feeds its own distribution board and the modules are fed through ribbon cables from rows of sockets. The power supplies have independent fuses, accessible on the front panel, each with its own indicator lamp to indicate a blown fuse. The on-board 4 channel and 8 channel mixers can receive inputs from other external equipment for special treatment."
