via this auction

SN 281684

"Arp Odyssey Mk1 White Face. Quite a rare synth, but this one is even more special. it has the Moog 4035 "blue meanie" filter installed by CMS. It is in excellent cosmetic shape, has a few CV 1/8" mods on the back, and is fully functional. Sliders work quite well and aren't gummy like some old Odysseys. Fully functional, keyboard works well too. The Moog filter sounds great. It was serviced about half a year ago and is good to go."

Wordsmith EP by dyLAB0303 Showcasing TB-303 & TR-707

dyLAB runs The Monthly Acid Pattern
"Track from my Wordsmith EP out on Acid All Stars The concept of the EP was to write words, or phrases with the TB303 and use those as acid lines. The percussion was all from the TR707. You can buy the tracks or whole EP from https://www.beatport.com/en-US/html/content/release/detail/366821/Dylab Melbourne's finest, Dylab returns strong with his first EP for the acidallstars label. His unique version of old school acid mixed with new school sensibility keeps his sound fresh and unique, while timeless all the same. An amazing take on 80's acid that draws influence from as far as 80's pop to 80's punk and keeps it firmly tongue in cheek. Dylab ain't going nowhere soon, and his steady stream of releases and work on acid pattern groups over the years has made him a household name over the years. We're super stoked to have him release with us again and look forward to bombing melbourne with him soon.

Escape From Noise Opens eBay Shop - Bubblesound Instruments VCOb & More

Escape From Noise's eBay shop is now open.
Check it out for more.

Pictured is the new Bubblesound Instruments VCOb listed here.

"The VCOb is an voltage-controlled analog oscillator based around a classic triangle core VCO. It is similar to the uLFO, but with some improvemnets. The range of the VCOb is one of the widest in the analog modular world. And like all triangle cores the real fun is in the FM.

Since we're starting with a triangle core it's easy to produce a real Sine wave output. There is also a Saw and Pulse outputs. The Pulse will almost become fully positive or negative with the pot, and will go all the way open and closed with CV.

The VCOb offers FM in both the Linear And Exponential varieties. There is only one input, unlike the uLFO. and the FM set to full in Expo mode this will act as a second 1V/Oct input for things like transposing.

The tracking is all analog and will give 4-6 octaves, depending on how picky you are. It is very stable and they do track together very well.

• Outputs: saw, pulse, sine, triangle
• Range: 10 Second cycles - 21.4K Hz
• Modulation: 1 fm input with linear and exponential, pulse width modulation
• Size: 8 hp, 60mm (2.1 inches) deep
• Current draw: 100 mv"

"Original Oberheim photography used for cover "Point of Arrival" cassette, 1985"

via Loren Nerell
"Something for your 6th year. :) Its a fake synth I made from reject parts when I worked at Oberheim in the mid 1980s. Front is from an OB8, keyboard from a Matrix 6, rear panel from a Matrix 12. I still have it buried somewhere in my garage. As the caption says it was the front cover of my first album, which will be re-released later this year on vinyl."

Update: Now on vinyl:
