Update via TimewaveZero in the comments: "This is the Elektron MD SPS-1 MK2 as opposed to the Elektron MD SPS-1 "UW (User Wave)" MK2. There are a few slight differences. You can find the specs here ---> http://www.elektron.se/order/"
YouTube via thedeepelement "'m testing out a)Make Noise's Quad Multi Mode Gate (qmmg) module and b)Flip's UltraHD camcorder. I wanted to share a video of how extreme the module can get with normal Tip Top Audio and Cwejman waveforms. I first preview all four channels without activating the gates. Then I turn all the channels to VCA, Both, LP and finally HP modes. After that I manually mangle the sound and return back to VCA mode. Everything is coming out of the summing mixer. So in short you get a Mixer, VCA and multimode filtering. Why don't you have this yet?"

Gakken is a Japanese magazine that comes with a DIY kit. Prior issues featured a theremin and of course the analog SX-150 mini synth [see the Gakken label below for prior posts including images, videos and mods]. The current issue comes with the GMC-4, a 4-bit computer kit with audio. See the video below.
