"I sold my Juno6 on eBay, I'll be sad to see it go as it was my first hardware synthesizer. But hey! At least I have the funds to buy a 106 now :D"

Jomox XBase999 and M-Resonator

YouTube via bigcitymusic
"Here's a simple beat from the monsterous analog Jomox Xbase999. We're processing it with the Jomox M-Resonator Analog Filter Machine. The M-Resonator has two analog resonant low pass filters interwoven into a feedback matrix that has an envelope section as well. This box is capable of a wide variety of tones. From subtle filter sweeps to extreme feedback, the M-Resonator is a unique piece."

Infection Music Zeit Sequencer

via this auction

"Incredibly uncommon, very deep sequencer from Infection Music purchased from Analog Haven in California. First owner, studio use only.


There is a ton of information but also a lot of mystery around this unit due to the small manufacture (I am told they number in the single digits...). http://www.infectionmusic.com/ is the manufacturer web site and gives up the goods far better than I can in the space here. It is a fully featured MIDI sequencer designed with a thoughtful awareness of the sorts of trickier things used in the old school analog modulars, excels in the tangerine dream and kraftwerk vibes but of course useful across all genres, effective with anything that can talk MIDI (even, of course, soft synths)."
