[cubisteffects] TECHNO-TARI 2600 ANALOG SYNTH
video at auction and posted here
"The Techno-tari 2600 is an analog synthesizer that replicates a basic square wave synthesizer . It is a synth in its most basic form – but with a handful of controls, can provide anything from squelching Techno bass lines to glitchy arpeggios and droning bass notes. The Techno-tari 2600 provides thick analog synth sounds in a rehoused Atari 2600 console.
The core of the synth is from Forrest Mims' Stepped Tone Generator (STG), also known as an Atari Punk Console. I used this circuit to produce the square wave sound. The circuit has two PITCH knobs that control the frequency of each step in the waveform. So by having the VCO at its core, I added a circuit that emulated three more elements of an analog synth; a voltage controlled filter (VCF), a low frequency oscillator (LFO) and a voltage controlled amplifier (VCA).
The FILTER knob acts a tone control or VCF. Swept to its minimum, it acts like a high pass filter i.e. all high frequencies above a fixed point are passed through, cutting out the lower frequencies below the threshold. At its maximum, it acts like a low pass filter. This is subtractive synthesis at its most simplest – subtracting frequencies away from the whole (VCO) to provide a synthesised sound.
A FREQ switch allows a shift in octave of the oscilltor so you can go from chirpy, glitchy sounds to rumbling deep drones with one switch. Due to the change in frequency, the PITCH knobs act in a different relationship than before so experimenting here will give you a different low end result. Switch to the left is low frequency, to the right is high frequency.

The Techno-tari 2600 operates off 9V DC using a standard 2.5mm negative tip power supply commonly used to power effects pedals. It has an on/off power switch and OUTPUT jack for plugging into headphones, mixer, amplifier or effects pedals."
SOLARIS Estradin 314

"rare soviet analog polyphonic synthesizer - Estradin 314 SOLARIS. It was manufacture on the same "Estradin" military radio plant in Zhitomir city where was produced power moog-type synths Altair-231, Estradin-230 in eighties. SOLARIS uses organ style drawbars to create the basic tone, and has a analog filtering as well. Inside it has 12 voice boards that correspond to each key in an octave, and then uses a divide down system to get to the other octaves. Because of this the sound of the oscillators are really thick and meaty. The filter is really extreme and sounds fantastic, as well the envelope is really punchy, so you get great synth stabs, sweeps and percussive organy sounds. If you use the envelope and filter sections carefully you can get great moogy leads out of it, warm organ sounds, flying ambient textures, in the high resisters it can sound like a string machine, or even a theremin if you crank the resonance. It has tons of character and can sounds really unique!

-Pitch bend
FILTER section: Envelope amount, Cutoff, Resonance, Attack, Sustain, Release.
REGISTERS section: Harmonics 1-5 (8",4",2", 2 2/3", 1").
VIBRATO section: Lfo speed, Lfo pitch amount, Lfo filter amount.
-Amplifier release
-Brilliance ( Filter blend )
-Tune
-Power On/Off

The supply voltage - 220-230V/50Hz. For use with 110/127V, a voltage converter is necessary."
