Access Virus TI Goldfilter

Remember this post? Looks like it finally went up for auction.
Details:
"Welcome,
You are bidding on the one-off, Limited Edition, Access Virus TI Polar known simply as Goldfilter, as created by Access in Germany . This synth is the only one of its kind, mint, unused and still in its original box. Obviously I had to take the pictures ( to be fair, the gold and silver didn't come out as great as I'd hoped ), so it has been removed from its plastic, if only briefly. Don't let the pictures fool you, it's a truly beautiful instrument in real life. To be completely honest with you, I also switched it on once and pressed a few keys just to grin, stupidly, but that's it. Pictures of the actual unit on sale can be found in the Goldfilter gallery, here. Specs for the multiple award-winning TI Series can be found here, on the Access website.

This unit is now for sale to avid collectors and synth buffs alike. No chancers please, this is a legitimate sale.

Timeline
This listing or bidding process will continue until June 9th ‘07 after which the highest bidder will become the owner of this one-off instrument.

Enquiries
Any enquiries regarding this sale may be made through the Goldfilter website : www.gold-filter.com"

Via Tony of Oakley Sound on the AH list:

"Ceri at Oakley Modular has just told me that the Oakley 'Envelope Follower and Gate Extractor' boards and pot kits have been reinstated. Board and pots are in stock now."

Rhodes Chroma

via Chris Ryan on the always great Rhodes Chroma list:

"Mark David has kindly contributed all the supporting materials for
the work he did in 2000-01 on his 'Windows Interface for the Rhodes Chroma.'

There is:
documentation on overall design
circuit design
server object library
Windows components for Chroma/ computer communication
client design and
an FAQ,
along with source code (see the Server Object Library page).

Mark writes, 'I did this all when I had a few contiguous un-employed months in 2000, and I'm highly unlikely to be able to help answer any questions now - as those synapses in my brain have been re-purposed." Mark is making this material "freely available to whomever wants to make use of it.'

Thanks, Mark!"

Andromeda A6 Demo via Colin Chung

"the 2ms envelope delay makes it really snap, and I'm only using the fast settings for the engine optimiser, not the clicky ultra setting.

basicly a sync tone, arp'ed and latched on the A6, delay is from A6. Then I was mucking with the settings etc There is some convultion reverb from the back of a van for ambience :P"
