Future Retro 777

via this auction
"The Future Retro 777 is a classic American made desktop synthesizer like no other. While it was designed to emulate the classic TB303 from Roland the creators of the 777 decided to take it several notches above and beyond the original TB303. The internal routings are above and beyond typical hardwired synths found on the market. If you are new to the tech stuff it means that you can create sounds on this machine that cannot be made with standard synthesizers. OSC 1 & 2 plus Filter can be crossed-modulated and the modulation indexes are very deep yielding some truly killer sounds only found on larger and more expensive modular gear.

It has the latest firmware rev 3.00. This rev adds better sync capabilities and last song /pattern recall. I copied the blank patch sheet found in the manual and made a nice spiral bound 100 patches notebook

The Sequencer is a breeze to program, it has MIDI IN and OUT, Receives and sends MIDI SYNC Clock plus all the analog inputs and outputs making a breeze to interface with any analog gear in the 1v/Oct range.

HARTMANN NEURON VS NUKE + SOFTWARE

via this auction

"HARTMANN NEURON VS NUKE + SOFTWARE SYNTHESIZER EC RARE

INTRODUCTION
The Neuron VS software synthesizer is definitely a more affordable way to get the unique sounds and experience of the Neuron synthesizer engine without shelling out a small fortune to acquire the big-brother hardware version. Designed and built by industry designer Axel Hartmann of the German company Hartmann Music. The Neuron synthesizer used an Artificial Neural Network to create a digital computer model from sampled sounds, implementing a new synthesis technology. This computer model could then be used to resynthesize a new sound, giving the player control over "musical" aspects such as instrument body size, material and other acoustic properties. This parametric approach was very different from the more mathematical approaches of other synthesizers at that time.
