A simple theme

YouTube via attorks
"A simple theme; no keyboard wizardry here. The Synthesizers.com sound uses an Oakley Equinoxe VC phaser which is modulated by an LFO, a EG and later on by a VCO. Row 1 of the MAQ16/3 drives the DotCom, row 2 the MFM and row 3 the Creamware MiniMax (not visible)."

Crumar Orchestrator

YouTube via peglegjoe857. Watch your audio level, the synth is considerably louder than his voice. via this auction
"This is a Crumar Orchestrator that I am selling on ebay, decided to make a video to show it's sound and condition. As you can see it sounds sweet and very analog. The strings are killer and the brass is fat and sometimes approaches being a squelchy little bass killer as well. Sad to see this working one go, but i have a broken one under my wing right now that I only need a few IC chips, a few new fader pots, and some time spent on the keyboard before it is ready for some rock."

"1980's 360 Systems Digital sample keyboard. Loaded with real instrument digital samples, this was a very successful attempt to re-create a modern digital-based Mellotron keyboard. Simple to use, this keyboard produces 32 beautiful digital samples, all of which are at the touch of a button. This keyboard is exceedingly rare and extremely useful. The first 16 samples sound like: flute, guitar, bass, slap bass, sustained strings, basoon, clavinet, saxophone, swell clarinet, flugelhorn, trumpet, horns, strings, vibes, marimba, bass clarinet. The other 16 sounds we did not check, but all of the chips are present on the circuit board. The keyboard is in perfect working condition and was recently serviced by Ed Miller in Los Angeles...."
