"Here is a photo of the Double Lexington that was previously posted, partially filled and installed in its new home. The back brace secures the two cases together nicely and the module weight holds the cases firmly to the table. What a beautiful sight to wake up to in the morning. :)

The Casio CZ-3000 "1986" by Justin Robert

YouTube via musicajuro
"I recorded the album "1986" entirely with a Casio CZ-3000. There are no over dubs, no external FX used, and no computer processing to change the sound in any way. 1986 is largely inspired by the classic ambient sounds of the 1980s like Steve Roach, Klaus Schulze, and the Blade Runner soundtrack by Vangelis.

You can get a full length flac version at http://justinrobert.bandcamp.com which is the best way to go. Flacs sound much better than MP3s, however if you want in on MP3, you can get that there for free as well.

Thanks for checking out my video and I hope you like the sounds!"

Ham Heart Analog Noise Box W/ LFO FM drone

via this auction
"This is a handmade Ham Heart, 100% analog synthesizer.

It features 2 squarewave oscillators, with one acting as an frequency modulating LFO.

Both, the main oscillator and the LFO, have a 3 position frequency range switches, allowing for a great variety of sounds and textures. From slow rhythmic beeps and buzzes up through swarms of mosquitoes. With both the LFO and main oscillator in their highest ranges some really nice glitchy, distressed landing pod chirps and buzzes can be had.

There is also a modulation depth control allowing for subtle pitch modulations and/or complete clangorous metallics.

The controls:

The two outer toggle switches select the frequency range of the main oscillator and LFO.
The center toggle switch selects between fine/coarse frequency modulation.
The two black outer knobs control the pitch of the main oscillator and LFO.
The silver knob in the upper left is the modulation depth control.
The silver knob in the upper right is the master volume control."

6.35mm (1/4 inch) audio output
2.1mm 9v DC input (tip -)
On/Off switch
Rubber feet
White, metal faceplate
Hand painted, flightless bird Ham Heart logo.
