Purple Faced Future Retro FR-777


via this auction

"Its capable of all the stock 303 acid sounds but can also do a lot more besides. With two oscillators, FM, 3 and 7 pole filters and this synthesizer is capable of creating an insane variety of sounds, its seriously deep. On top of that it also has an excellent built in sequencer with midi and cv in and out and realtime control. Its exactly the same as the now discontinued Mobius sequencer (minus V/Hz output) and is great for controlling older cv synthesizers. There were less than 700 of these made and this is one of first 30, hand built by the designer Jared Flickinger, and finished in purple. It has a more aggressive filter overdrive section that only appeared in the first few units and is Jared's personal favourite, sounds beautiful."

Another track about the synthesizer. I just created a synth songs alias. Click on it for more. I do know I have others. I just need to find them when I have time. If you know of them feel free to comment or send them in. Note that the song has to be about a synthesizer, not just made with synths.

"The idea of using my Arduino for modular synth utilities started out as a crazy idea that I’m now starting to seriously like. The pictures above shows my first design, an oscillator. (I have plans for other modules, see the bottom of this post)"

John DuVal - Cassiopeia's Playground (2008)


"Earth Mantra is proud to bring you the long-awaited new release by reknowned analog synthesizer guru and electronic musician John DuVal.

For those who might not be familiar, John is the one-time owner of one of the largest Serge analog modular systems ever assembled, a system nicknamed Fist of God. We have seen pictures of this beast, and believe us when we say that the name is completely appropriate. John is widely regarded, both for his 2003 seminal analog modular epic entitled Hell's Canyon, which is very nearly the textbook example of a perfect analog modular sound painting, as well as for his work with ambient supergroup Dweller At The Threshold, and for his own solo music before that."
