Kimi tests the new beauty of MOOG in Underground."
Maxim MDS-1000

via Loscha.
"It appears to be a Simmons clone. No other images appear to be available online.
Appears to have SSM2044 per channel, and lots of other nice things. Quite solid in design, all balanced, had a 9 pin Molex on the back so you can hook up all your triggers in one easy connector, would have been convenient on the road."

Prophet 10 note-wise demonstration
YouTube via suitandtieguy.
"this would be me playing the Prophet 10, to demonstrate that it works for the purpose of purchase. if i were to demonstrate its sound i would have recorded the sound better.
i think i'm blowing through various stuff here, starting with the intro to "Gospelette" (aka "Fly Away") by Jack McDuff and at some point i'm playing "Angel" by Sarah McLachlan."
Modular Jam
YouTube via verstaerker.
"little jam with my modular system - including my new fantastic Cwejman VCO"
Failirght Voicetracker VT-5
"This is the Fairlight Voicetraker. It is intended to track the pitch and expressiveness of your voice and turn it into a synthesizer. The Voicetracker has the ability to not only let your voice (guitar, drum machine, etc.) manipulate its internal synth (which is very analog and gritty) but also send MIDI and Voltage Control signals to other synths. It is the fastest of its kind, incredibly accurate, and a mind blowing way to control your synths. Better than a vocoder, its signaling allows ANY synth or DRUM MACHINE to be controlled by audio input alone.
Vocoders seem trivial when you can trigger multiple synths with the pitch of any sound input. Make anything sound musical!
Top Row:
Range:
Pitch Range (Select Full, Low, Mid, Hi, Whistle, or Pitch Detail) {basically selects the range of the sound the VT will respond to... I will usually select Pitch Detail},
Presets (A-D)
2nd Row:
Response Time {Never saw any reason not to select Fast!},
Display {You can hook this thing up to a monitor and track your voice. It was originally intended to help singers watch and work on their pitch control. This determines how fast it will track on the display. I always set it to slow in case it drained response time anywhere else... I have no evidence that it did}
3rd Row: {Again, has to do with display}
Freeze, Scroll, Pitch, Zoom, Displays (Ampl, Timbre, Cents)
4th Row: {Display again}
Metronome, Trace (Gate, Continue), Tune, Axis (Vertical, Horizontal}, Format (Keyboard, Frequency, Grid)
5th Row:
Halt {Stops tracking}, Options (Ampl, Timbre) {Gives the option of Tracking Volume and Timbre of your voice}, Octave {Shifts up or down octaves}, Semitones {Tracks semitones if desired, which is very desired}, Internal Synth {On or off}, Presets ABC
Bottom Row:
0-9 {I think these are to input digits, but I am not entirely sure}
MIDI:
In
Out
Thru
Serial Port
Aux 1
Aux 2
Output level knob is on this side
Back:
Video Out
Sensitivity (Lo/Hi) {Keep on Hi}
Line/Mic
Audio In
Audio Thru (Which means you can "tap" a signal and not lose an output... how come we don't have this option more often?!}
Analog Synth Contol {I think this is for Voltage Control, which I never needed... but i think this makes the machine capable of controlling a MOOG or even a MOOGERFOOGER... what is a PURITY signal? I mean, I just have to know...If you know, please respond)
Purity
Bright
Level
Gate
Pitch
Footswitch 1 & 2
VCA In
VCA out
Headphone jack
Serial # 10228 {I think there were only 300 made, but I am not sure...if you know, please respond}
Used to retail for $2495.00"
