Analogue Systems backlit modulation wheels

via this auction

"One analogue systems rs600 modulation wheel eurorack module.

Clear backlit wheels change color as they are moved while the modulation wheel LED changes in intensity as it is moved showing the internal LFO frequency.

There are 3 outputs: 'Bend Out', 'Mix Out' and 'Mod Out', as well as 'Ext In'.

The user can introduce audio or external CV sources into 'Ext In' and this source can be introduced via the mod wheel with the internal VCA. There are 2 knobs which provide 'Depth' of bend and 'Frequency' of modulation respectively.

Stunningly beautiful, multi-functional performance wheels with built-in LFO."

SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS PRO ONE With Original Box

via this auction

"superb example Sequential Circuits Pro One vintage analogue mono synth complete with the original box and packaging.......serial number 100-1979 ......so it's one of the good early Pro One synths, just after the very early models which had power supply issues."

Anyone confirm the power supply issues on early models?

Update via Grant in the comments: "The issue with the early power supply is that the power transformer is mounted on the PCB, and it's heavy, so it can break. Later models have the power transformer mounted to the chassis."

korg polysix vintage synth

via this auction

"BATTERY WAS CHANGED BECAUSE OF THE WELL KNOWN BATTERY PROBLEM THAT THESE CAN HAVE ,BUT THIS ONE WAS LUCKY THAT WE CAUGHT IT JUST AT THE BEGINING OF THE LEAK.SO NO BOARD DAMAGE."

Update via Jed Jorgensen in the comments: "(Shamelessly repeating this plug): Many a Korg Polysix has failed due to battery corrosion on the KLM-367 PCB. But don’t despair! Bring your Polysix back to life!

Replacement KLM-367 PCBs are now available. These PCBs are exact clones of the original PCB, except that they take a new lithium battery which won’t blow up and ruin your synthesizer. Puchase a new circuit board here."

This plug is definitely welcome. Also posted here.

CHROMA POLARIS II

via this auction

Note the sticker? on the top right. Anyone know what this is? Looks like a parameter sheet.

Update via John Leimseider on the Rhodes Chroma list:

"The Polaris II’s had that chart on the right. There was also a version 2 power supply, but they were not exclusively in the Polaris II. Basically, they were the same machine… They could have mostly version 5 or version 9 (or version 9 star) software. Version 9 star has the better velocity table…"
