Oberheim SEM Based DIY Synthesizer

via David Rogoff on Facebook
"couple of pictures from freshman year of college. This was a home-made synthesizer using a case I did the woodwork and plexiglass faceplate for. It used an Oberheim SEM inside, along with my keyboard electronics.
There are two wheels visible - the usual pitch/mod, plus a third wheel on the side next to the other two for filter mod. The idea was based on Jan Hammer's wearable Probe keyboard (weighed a ton!)."

MOOG SYSTEM 55

via this auction where you'll find more images. Details: "Here is probably the last Moog System 55 of this planet. This is a rare opportunity to buy this legendary monstrous modular synthesizer. The Moog modular was used by most of the world-famous composers like Keith Emerson, Hans Zimmer, Vangelis, Pete Namlook, Tangerine Dream (Klaus Schulze), Wendy Carlos and others pioneers... The Moog modular synthesizer offered musicians a revolutionary new way to produce sound when it was released in the 1960s. It was originally intended for use in recording studios and universities and was not intended for (or widely embraced by) musicians for use in live performance. The analog electronics of the system often made sound generation unreliable and unpredictable during live performances.

This System 55 come in excellent (Mint) conditions, all modules are perfect and original of course, no keyboard but you can drive the modular with midi to cv converter box or the new synthesizers.com keyboard.
As you can see in the photos the system has a rich configuration because it mount another 904A lowpass filter respect the standard system 55 release ...so there are 3x filters + Filter coupler AMAZING!!!"

"Choppin' up a record sample. I'm still trying to even up my timing, maybe change the drum beat before that, and then add some synths later."

360 SYSTEMS VINTAGE GUITAR SYNTHESIZER

via this auction
"For your consideration is this cool and very rare 360 Systems Slave Driver guitar synthesizer controller interface. This is one of the first units to allow a guitar player to access all of the sounds and sequences typically only available to the synthesizer world. With this unit, a guitar player is able to hook up a guitar to a CV input synthesizer using this controller. You simply run the Slave Driver between your guitar and your synthesizer and you are able to produce and manipulate all of the sounds on your synth with your guitar. This unit is great for any experimental guitar or synth player alike and a must have for the synthesizer collector. These units are extremely rare, and 360 systems equipment is very collectible. It does not include a guitar pickup."
