Korg SE-500 Tape Delay With CV Control

via this auction
"Against the rising tide of electronic echo units, Korg developed the SE-500 to optimize the advantages of the tape echo system. This unit employs a large-scale DC direct-drive servo motor for striking rotational speed accuracy, and specially designed noise reduction circuitry to ensure a very high signal-to-noise ratio. Five playback heads give a variety of effects from simulated reverb to a 1.5 second maximum long delay. With the SOS (sound on sound) feature, you can even double up on yourself and play on top of a whole passage. Controls including effect switches and tape speed are voltage controlled to allow remote control via outboard units or synthesizer."

Roland TB-303 with Devilfish Mod

via this auction
"The Devil Fish is a modification to the TB-303 - a synthesiser/sequencer produced by Roland in 1981/82, which has played a crucial role in the development of electronic dance music.

Features include:
• CV and Gate inputs.
• CV input to turn on Slide.
• CV input for Accent.
• CV input for Filter Frequency.
• Output for Accent.
• Audio In to filter.
• Audio In to frequency modulate the filter.
• Audio Out from filter (pre-VCA).
• Overdrive pot to control the level of oscillator going to the filter: zero to 66.6 times normal level.
• Separate control of Main Envelope Generator times in accented and non-accented notes.
• Volume envelope is no longer fixed, and can be varied from 16 msec through 3 seconds – and to no decay at all, i.e. for notes which last indefinitely.
• Soft Attack control gives attack times between 0.3 and 30 msec. (TB-303 attack was ~3 msec.)
• Slide time is variable to five times longer than normal.
• Variable Filter Tracking causes the oscillator CV to control the filter frequency.
• Internal Filter FM: a unique approach of AC coupled Filter FM from the audio output of the VCA.
• The Muffler is a unique post-VCA soft-clip distortion circuit which retains bass response.
• Push-button to manually activate Accent.
• Filter can be switched to self resonance.
• Accent Sweep has three modes and can be disabled.
• Filter Cut Off pot range doubled to 5 kHz max, and widened to include much lower frequencies.
• Env Mod pot range extended to include zero and go as high as three times the normal maximum.
• Bass response is improved.
• Lithium battery for at least ten years battery backup, so there is no need to install C-cell batteries.
• The six TB-303 knobs Tuning to Accent are mounted 1.5mm higher, making them easier to turn.
• The Devil Fish can still sound like a TB-303."

Roland MSQ-100 MIDI Sequencer


via this auction

"This is a classic Roland MIDI sequencer from the 80's. Why is it cool? Because you can use it as a MIDI to DIN sync converter. That's why I had it. Not sure if it all works the way it's supposed to because all I did was load it full of blank sequences each time and sync my CR-8000 to my computer. Worked like a charm. Should work with TB-303 and other DIN sync only devices like the 606 as well.
Cheap way to sync old to the new. What you see is what you get. No power supply. The power supply I used goes to one of my other units, but it uses a standard readily available Roland/Boss PSA power adapter found just about everywhere. Manual is available for download free from Roland."
