RITM-2

via this auction
"A rare subtractive analog synth, manufactured from 1982 by the Kirov radio plant in the former Soviet Union.

• This auction synth was made in 1986.
• 32-note (F-C) 1 - VCO monophonic synth..
• Neat little synth with a mix of knobs and sliders. Sprung pitch-bend wheel; modulation slider.
• Portamento / glissando; LFO - saw, triangle or random.
• VCO: three waveforms; noise; VCF with resonance, switchable key follow. Two ADSRs.

• Connection on the rear panel : OUTPUT with standard 1/4' jack, power wire connection (220/240V), fuse (0,5A) .

This seems to have a feel of early Korg about it - nice.
No Midi, no any CV/Gate ports."

ANALOG SEQUENCER ANALOG 2SYTH =VCO,EG,,NG,VCA,8step

via this auction

You can find videos and a previous auction here, and we now have a source website: susanoonsynth

"8step analog sequencer--- (Speed,Portamento,8 Frequency controls,CV OUT jack=0~8V,Trigger OUT jack=9V)

The mini switch(Up position) is to drive VCO.The trigger signal of the sequencer is connected EG.

VCO--- Voltage Controlled Oscillator (Wide range Frequency control knob)

EG---Envelope Generator (Attack,Release,Out Level)

It accepts the trigger signal from Sequencer,processes the signal and send it to VCA.

STOP,START,STEP switch When the sequencer is running,the step switch works as the step hold switch.Steps runs one by one by pushing and release the step switch when the sequencer stops.

NOISE GENERATOR---{Out Level,Switch(to VCO)}

It can make snare sound and noise mixed vco.

VCA---Voltage Controlled Amplifire ( Out Level,Initial Gain)

Initial Gain should be used with EG Out Level to adjust EG effects.

You can make lots of sound and the 8step sequencer can drive another ANALOG SYNTH.

6.35mm(1/4 inch) audio Jack (OUTPUT CVOUT TRIGGEROUT)

2.1mm 9V DC input(NEGATIVE CENTER)or only one 9V battery

The size of the aluminium box is 17.5×11.5×height 5 (about cm)."

KORG MONOTRON ANALOGUE RIBBON SYNTHESIZER

via this auction
"Analog on the go!
Analog synths were once massive, temperamental monsters; but no more! The true analog monotron fits in your pocket and is ready to play – anytime, anyplace. Although small enough to hold in one hand, the amazing monotron delivers ginormous and dazzling sounds. Best of all, it's a blast to play. The controls have been streamlined for ease of use. Concentrating on the most important sound parameters, the panel contains only five knobs and one switch. With this level of simplicity, now anyone can easily enjoy the world of analog synthesizers.

Product Highlights:
* Features the same classic analog filter found in the legendary Korg MS-10 & MS-20
* Filter any external source using the audio input jack
* Inspiring, easy-to-play ribbon keyboard
* Intuitive, fun-to-tweak controls
* Full-fledged, true analog synthesizer: VCO, VCF, LFO
* LFO can modulate either pitch of filter cutoff
* LFO Rate knob features cool LED visual indicator.
* Battery operation and palmtop size equals true portability

* Internal speaker/headphone jack lets you enjoy the sound anywhere – alone or with friends!

Ribbon controller keyboard offers easy expression
Borrowing the enjoyment of performing with a simple touch from Korg's wildly popular KAOSS products, the monotron's ribbon controller keyboard takes this ease of use even farther. Simple finger gestures can produce expressive effects such as vibrato and glide.

1VCO, 1VCF, 1LFO – Modular synthesis building blocks

The monotron's circuit is radically simple: one voltage-controlled oscillator, one voltage-controlled filter, and one low frequency oscillator. As a result, the process of sound creation is intuitive, and instantly understandable. And it's tons of fun. The monotron provides the joy of sonic creativity that's at the heart of analog synthesis.

The famous Korg filter
The monotron starts with the same highly acclaimed VCF circuit as KORG's classic MS-10 and original MS-20 semi modular synthesizers, and adds extra oomph to the resonance. Originally released over 30 years ago, these instruments are still coveted today for their aggressive, dynamic filters. The VCF Cutoff knob sets the frequency or tone of the filter; the VCF Peak (resonance) knob adds emphasis.

Semi modular satisfaction
Just as on the original MS-20, the monotron's filter can be "patched into," allowing any external audio source to be processed by the monotron's filter. The input jack (AUX input) built into the monotron's compact body inserts the AUX input into the signal path right before the VCF. This provides a great way to connect a KAOSSILATOR, a keyboard, a guitar, a digital audio player or even an un-mixed track to the monotron and enjoy tone-bending filter effects.

Versatile LFO provides audio – and visual – excitement!
The LFO (Low Frequency Oscillator) can affect either the oscillator pitch or the filter cutoff. Both the speed and the intensity are individually adjustable, so you can create anything from a gentle vibrato to swooping tone changes of galactic proportions. As you turn the LFO Rate knob – featuring an embedded LED – the speed of the modulation effect and the speed of the blinking LED will change in tandem.

Listen anywhere – alone or with friends
The ultimate in compactness, the monotron includes a built-in miniature speaker. Along with the battery operation, this feature allows you to enjoy the monotron everywhere. There's also a headphone output that you can use when creating sounds at home, for recording, or for connecting to an amplifier or PA system."

"these are highly regarded synths the PWM excellent and i love the square wave as well , there is a little panel of black vinyl covering about 5cm x 1 cm missing from the front edge of the base , this has been coloured in black so its hardly worth talking about otherwise its all original

these are highly modifyable ,easy to work on,there is an excellent filter mod for it which is real easy , loads of resources on the net for it"

Klee 2 Sequencer, Part Two

YouTube via timsynth — June 11, 2010 — "Short jam session with the Klee 2 Sequencer. The Klee is creating 3 separate voices, using the following DIY modules: 3 VCOs, 2 VCAs, 3 ADSR generators, 3 Low Pass filters, reverb, and delay. The session was recorded in one pass, no multi-track. For more info visit Electro-music.com and Birthofasynth.com"
