Trash invaders #001 – Schneiders Buero from Kaare Bøje on Vimeo.
"Recently I was on a trip to Berlin, fooling around as a tourist, but I did have one plan: To visit Schneiders Buero (The largest store in Europe with showroom when it comes to modular synths and the more special filter/fx brands). I had a good talk with the owner himself (Andreas Schneider) who has run the shop for more than 10 years. Before Schneiders Buero he was working with sales for Jomox. He claimed that the store was the biggest of its kind in Europe and I have to admit that I’ve not seen so many modulars/drum machines/filters in a store showroom before (Here I’m talking about the more rare equipment). The best thing is that you can try all of it and the people working there are very helpful. The store itself is quite hard to find and is placed in Kreutzberg (Berlin), but if you ever go there and have just a little interest in modular synthesis or rare filters/effects then you need to go to Schneiders Buero. I made a little video (with sound from the pocket cam) and there are more pictures from my visit on our website – justastudio. (Sorry for the English, but it’s not my native language) Links: schneidersbuero.de justastudio.net - pictures + video "

CRUMAR OMB-2 Analog Synth Bass Pedal & Drum machine
Description appears to be pulled from Beat Box!. You'll find other vintage rhythm machines there as well.
"Crumar was an Italian company that was famous for their keybord instruments. The OMB-2 was one of their few ventures into analog drum sounds. OMB stands for one man band. It not only has drum patterns, it also has rhythm and bass. The main unit had all of the controls to select and mix. The pedal board allows you to play bass on the pedals manually, or when it auto mode, select what key your bass pattern is playing in. The volume pedal is a nice feature. This outfit was one of the early one man band units and helped pave the way for hundreds of solo musicians that needed 'electronic side men' ."
