Thomas Organ Company 1970's MOOG SATELLITE SYNTHESIZER

via this auction

"This auction is for an early Moog synthesizer. A single VCO monophonic preset. By today's standards this is probably considered an inferior synthesizer. I fiddled around with it for a few hours before posting for sale, seems like a nice vintage instrument that could still have a pratical purpose, although simplistic."

MEMORYMOOG PLUS

via this auction
"This synth has XLR output and built in midi functionality (i.e. Memorymoog PLUS) for superior recording capabilities. In fact the functionality of this analog polysynth is almost second to none as far as 80s polysynths went. The features this synth has far exceed those of say a Roland Jupiter 8, having a built in sequencer with full clock control, interactive LED display, intuitive functionality, and a slew of extra modifiable parameters. Also, as you can see, the frequency knobs for two of the oscillators have fine tunable potentiometers, which are a feature that you do not see very often and reinforces the point that this was Moog’s last synth creation from the original company, and that they pulled off all the stops to develop this machine. This is one legendary synthesizer and can create some of the most miraculous analog sounds from gurgling basses to enchanting strings. There are even a couple of well programmed choir patches that will blow you away. This synth works equally well as a polysynth as a lead monosynth and has the legendary Moog sounds that make it cut through and liven up any boring modern mix."

FuzzHugger(fx) AB-Synth Dream(Alternative Graphic) New

"FuzzHugger(fx) AB-Synth Dream(Alt. Graphics)

The AB-Synth Dream is one of the craziest and most versatile designs to come from FuzzHugger Effects! It starts with the full five-knob AB-Synth, adds a Voice toggle (for a whole new side to the oscillation mode, as well as more bass response), AND an independently-switchable third mode in front of it--FuzzHugger's Phantom Octave!

The AB-Synth is a harmonic-blasting, liquidy, light-sabery, layered fuzz--with tone-shaping Fuzz and Texture controls that take you from smooth and searing to splattery! From there, add a mind-altering second mode with wild oscillation, whale calls, blips, self- arpeggiation, more synth tones, and fat octave down! ...but don't stop there! The AB-Synth Dream adds a fifth-knob, giving you full control over gain and clean-up! You can also use it to "gate" the oscillation. Super versatile in both modes!

The Phantom Octave side can be run by itself or into the AB-Synth, bringing an incredibly amount of added tones--from octave down to fuzz-glitch ring mod tones, to smooth fuzz (all by adjusting your guitar's Tone controls!). Highly interactive with your pickups and guitar's Tone control.

The Controls!
Gain: Reduces gain and fuzz! Majorly cleans things up, allows for some sputtery tones, and lets you gate/adjust the oscillation.
Fuzz: This control takes you from high-gain to higher, while increasing focus and sizzle! Harmonic open fuzz, to overfuzzed, compressed, sizzling synth!
Texture: Lets you control the texture and response of the fuzz. Hard left is gainier, and hard right is looser. Lots of tones and responses to dial in! (slight scratch as circuit rebiases).
Level: Your master volume control...with a huge amount of available volume!
2nd Footswitch: Oscillation mode on/off (operates independently from on/off footswitch).
Trip: In Oscillation mode, this knob is your main oscillation control.

In Oscillation mode, Gain, Fuzz, and Texture controls become additional oscillation tuners with the Trip knob being your main oscillation flavor control. For synth bass, roll back on your guitar's volume knob! The oscillation mode requires passive pickups."
