Klemt Echolette-Maestro Rhythm Master-Astor Tube Radio-Vintage Jam.MOV

"Vintage Tube Jam. My decrepit Astor Tube Radio from 1949 being mashed by the modulation gate of the 1971 Maestro Rhythm King Mk4 then fed to the awesomely hungry 60s era Klemt Echolette NG51s Tube Tape delay... Spat straight out at the camera.

I.n0jaQ

Uploaded by cirtcele on Jul 23, 2011

"Artifactory NoizeMaschin#1 July2011 From the blurb:
I.n0jaQ - I.n0jaQ will be dusting off 1950s tube radios, 60s tape reverbs, 70s preset rhythm boxes, 80s educational machines and 90s found electronics. The unmistakable warm tone of last century's analogue circuitry intensely over-driven to timeless noise brutality levels."

Stunning Korg PS-3100 Vintage Analog Synthesiser

via this auction
"f you are familiar with the Korg PS series, these don't come up very often, make no mistake this one is pristine for a 34 year old synth, and sounds fantastic, it has been completely rehoused in a polished solid mahogany case and is the centre piece of any analog collection. I love this monster, but having had the pleasure of its use, my craving for more gear has taken hold once again and this is alot of synth real estate tied up in one big beastie. All pots and keys (except in 2 above) behave perfectly, keybed action feels great. See these links for more details:

Purchased by the previous owner from Ko at Modeless Factory about a year and a half ago who did a lot of servicing work to it including replacing all the edge connectors and electrolytic caps before shipping. When it reached the UK, the previous owner had the MM5824N divider chips replaced with modern CMOS replacements from Flatkeys (they have a life-expectancy of at least 20 years) and it was serviced by Tim Wallhead. It has two minor faults, some paint flaking down left hand edge of metal front plate, but barely noticeable (just make it out on pic 3), up to you if you touch up, and one d sharp key occasionally triggers erratically, which indicates a minor residue on busbar, however these are all work arounds for me and until due a service next."

Vintage Kurzweil 250RMX 6sp Rackmount Synth

via this auction

"Kurzweil 250 RMX, 6U rack version of the K250 keyboard, with all four soundblocks. This is the classic instrument developed for Stevie Wonder and used by all the top film composers through the '80s and '90s, for example the Lethal Weapons series. I believe Paul Shaffer still plays the keyboard version on the David Letterman show, but if not he did for years. The K250 was originally $20,000 by the time you added all the options (which this has). When they came out with the RMX, it was one of the first rack versions of a keyboard nobody wanted to carry around... The audio quality is just impeccable, with XLR transformer balanced outs, a very high internal sample rate, and a massive power supply inside - I'd estimate the weight of the unit to be 50 pounds. Kurzweil later released some of the K250 sounds in the 1000 PX series, but the 250 has all of them and sounds considerably bigger.

Poor cosmetic condition - missing knobs, broken sliders - Unit DOES light up and produce sounds."
