Oberheim Four Voice Synth Programmer Panel - Black RARE

via this auction

"Up for sale is a rare black Oberheim Four Voice or Eight Voice Programmer panel. Oberheim only made a very small number of black TVS-1, FVS-1, and EVS-1 synths for the NAMM show one year as demonstrator models. I have been told that Oberheim had enough black panels made to build 2 TVS-1 models, 4 FVS-1 models, and 1 EVS-1 model with a few spare panels left over, but I have never been able to confirm this. I have pictures of 1 of the original black Four Voice models, and an original black Eight Voice. I have also seen pictures of a Four Voice that has been rack mounted and no longer has its Programmer Module. There are pictures on the web of a stand alone version of the black Mini-Sequencer as well as an individual black Mini-Sequencer module that was pulled from an FVS or EVS. There are also pictures of a black TVS-1 as well but of course it didn’t use this Polyphonic Programmer Module. This is the front panel only, programmer electronics not included."

Korg microSTATION - string brass preset 1-49 HQ

YouTube via triumphthruxton | September 03, 2010

"String preset 1 to 49, Korg microSTATION is a new workstation from Korg. I just got the first shipment to Europe and I have had the Korg M3 and the Korg M50 Workstation before. This is a light weight 2.5 kg/ 6lbs workstation/synthesizer with amazing sounds and a built in sequencer.

Pros: portabel and easy to use, amazing sounds from the bigger M3 series, sequencer, great software editor

Cons: mini keys, small LCD display

Everything recorder with a Korg SR1 Sound On Sound field recorder.

You can make a 16 channel song with drums, bass lines, leads, pads and so on. Use up to 5 effects and master effects and then save your work to a SD card. With the USB connection it can act as an VST in your DAW like Cubase, Logic, Live. Since I use it in a studio it is very easy to just put it in a bag and use it both at home and in the studio. I initially bought the Korg M50 but 7 kg/15 lbs was bulky since I also play bass guitar and use Cubase on my laptop, impossible to get all that equipment on the metro."

MPC Electronics MPC-1 Analog Drum Machine Demo

YouTube via snolan1990 | September 03, 2010

"This is a brief overview of the features and sounds of the MPC Electronics Music Percussion Computer. This is a fully Analog Drum Machine made in Cambrige in England in 1982 by MPC Electronics featuring a four pattern internal sequencer and plenty of interfacing methods for a machine of this age. For whatever reason this machine seemed to fade almost entirely into obscurity, however if you managed to find one in fully working order it would make a fine addition to any electronic studio.

It should be noted that this machine is not 100% working, the internal battery has leaked and damaged the external sync circuits meaning that it will only work as master clock and a few of the pots are broken. Most notably the snare tune and decay pots are gone resulting in the snare being a very short burst click sound where as on a full working unit it would probably sound closer to a 909 snare.

For the cheesy little demo track at the end of this video the instruments used are as follows.

Drums - MPC-1
Latin Percussion - Roland TR-727
Electronic Piano - Roland JX-3P
Bass - Oberheim DPX-1 (with Juno-60 bass patch sample)
Harpsichord - Akai S900 (with Juno-60 patch sample)
Organ - Roland Juno-60
Sequencer - Akai ASQ10"

retro 1950's modular synth art for screen-printing

via The B-Roll "Since I need to come up with some screen-printing designs for our little burgeoning artist collective I decided to google image search “vintage control panels” for inspiration. I ultimately want to use these components to create an imaginary 1950′s modular synth. Some kind of modular that never existed but you wish it did. I made these in Inkscape but they were most definitely not freehand. I actually didn’t use the tablet at all. It was created using a lot of primitive shapes and the union command. I really dig the way they look though."
