Felix Visser with Synton Syrinx 0001

via this auction

Here's a bit of synth history. If you aren't interested in the auction, do note that is the first Synton Syrinx ever and that is Felix Visser, the creator of the Syrinx.
"This [picture] is number 02/10 of a strictly limited edition, and will be signed and numbered by Felix Visser, former boss of the famous synth and vocoder company, Synton. The synth itself, serial number 0001, Felix Visser's personal machine, will be sold at VEMIA in the next few weeks, and number 01/10 will be given to the winning bidder."

Blue Q

Blue Waldorf Q modded with a full tilted front panel. It kind of reminds me of the Alesis Aurora. The Blue Q website is here. Hopefully more images and details on the mod will come in. This was sent to the Waldorf list via roel.

Thor's Hammer - Modular Analog Drum Synthesizer

Remember the Homebrew Analog Synthesizer I posted yesterday? Turns out it is an analog modular drum synth based on designed from Thomas Henry and possibly Craig Anderton. Possibly? You can find more info on the entire system here.

Pictured:
"Clangora Hi-Hat Simulator
Thomas Henry's Clangora hi-hat synth project, which was published in the November 2003 issue of Nuts & Volts. The Clangora is practically a complete analog synthesizer, sans voltage control or temperature compensation of the VCOs; features include dual envelope generators, dual VCOs with FM mixer, frequency sweep and filtered pseudorandom digital noise source. The noise source and other sections are specifically engineered to evoke the character of brass percussion, but while the Clangora can certainly provide a convincing hi-hat impersonation it's also capable of a wide range of unique sounds and timbres. The circuit board was made using Mr. Henry's original artwork, and the chassis and faceplace are my own design. I also added front-panel pushbutton triggers for tuning without an external trigger source."

White Sequential Circuits Pro-One

Remember this white Pro-One via synthwood and customsynth.uk? Looks like it or another is up for auction.
