Via Prototek of Hong Kong Counterfeit:
"I just found a song from my band on YouTube. A fan took the liberty of merging our song "Emotion" with the classic silent film "Metropolis". I think he did a pretty good job!

For the song I used an 808 for the BD. The snare zap sound is actually an Odyssey. The Odyssey also handles the harmonized lead lines in the beginning. For the chords I believe I used a Sequential Six Track through an old MXR 100. The bass line was done with a MonoPoly. I think I used one of the FX modes to get the grinding sync sound."

Simmons Digital Clap Trap

via this auction.

"The designers of the Clap Trap analyzed rhythmical clapping, separated it into its sonic components in electronic terns and introduced variable pitch, spread and balance controls to make the effects adjustable within comparatively broad parameters. Subsequently they added a feature in which ‘humanizes’ the effect by introducing a random element.

ARP Hexaphonic Guitar Pickup

Title link takes you to shots of what is in the box.

via this auction.

Details:
"In 1977 ARP pushed into designing a synth that could respond to in-coming guitar signals using pitch-to-voltage technology. This gave rise to the Avatar, which in turn, was such a dud it practically sank the whole company before ARP finally sold off it's last and would-be greatest project - the Chroma - to CBS Musical Instruments. The Avatar was too expesnive for its own good ($3,000). It did seem to work, however; you use a hex pickup for your guitar which allows the guitar to play the synth sounds. Today the Avatar is used more like an expander module (as pictured above) with other ARP and CV/Gate type synthesizers.
It has two oscillators and is very much like the ARP Odyssey in terms of its sounds, programming and interface. Many of the features that make the Odyssey great (oscillator sync, ring modulator, sample and hold, portamento, envelope follower and more) can be found on the Avatar. The Avatar makes a great and more affordable way to get Odyssey sounds. Use it to fatten up you're current Odyssey or incorporate it into you're synth studio as an analog synth module via CV/Gate."
