Vintage Echoplex EP-3 1970s Market Electronics/Maestro

via this auction

"Serial # is 25506. Unit shows its age, with its share of scuffs and scratches, but is in pretty good shape overall. Has lots of flutter -- with longer delays, it's like having a slight chorus on all the time. Not obvious on short/slapback delays. This particular Echoplex has GREAT runaway feedback! Case is in good shape (but has no handle). 3-prong AC cord may have been an upgrade at some point.

Includes one almost new (maybe used for an hour or two) Tubeplex (Mike Battle) tape cartridge."

YAMAHA SS-30 rare vintage analog string synth


via this auction

SN 314

"A chunky (its heavy, 20kg!!) wood veneered string synth from the 70's. Its a dedicated string synth with all the control needed to make those 70's string sounds. It really has a rich and lush sound , wonderfully simple and effective controls.
This example is 100% working and cosmetically in fair condition with general wear and tear.

Control section running from left to right
pitch/ detune - The outer pot adjusts the overall tuning and the inner pot detunes the voices against the pitch which can produce a wonderful thickening effect ( some sources describe this synth as a duphonic/ multiphonic ,others describe it as a 4 voice polyphonic. It uses divide down chips enabling all keys to be played at once)

Orchestra -Depth ( Speed 1/2 ,cello ,violin ) A great ensemble effect with 2 different effect types (speed) and the ability to separate the effect between cello and violin ( so you can have ,for example cello effect and violins dry )

Vibrato ,Delay/Depth- Very nice vibrato effect.

Sustain, Cello /Violin - sustain 1 control each for cello and violin giving again the ability to have separate amount of sustain for cello and violin sections . Very short to very long .

Keyboard split 0/1/2/3 .0 setting is no split and just the violin sound over the whole range. 1 gives a split with the lowest octave for cellos the rest strings. 2 setting gives 1 and a half octaves to the cello . 3 gives 2 octaves to the cello. The splits are indicated by a white dot above the note on the control panel
Cello ,Volume, attack/slow ,cello1/cello2 - control section for cellos giving control over attack fast/slow. Choice of 2 cello sounds.

Violin Attack/Slow, Viola/violin1/Violin2 /Volume - Same as cello control section though the volume is at the far right.

Brilliance Cello/Violin Very usable low pass filter for cello and violin."

x0xb0x Atomic Mod Videos

"Up for sale is a new x0xb0x synthesizer with atomic mods. Professional looking aluminum case with Oxide Coating and shot blasting surface. 100% Tested, carefully calibrated and special tuned for louder audio output. The unit was build with all the original rare parts. Unlike other x0xb0x, I use Professional looking Aluminum case(custom made) instead of the cheap ABS plastic case. For lots of people request, I have added a timber on the sides of the unit, so it looks more vintage. I have also added a power switch for the x0xb0x. Comes with 220V or 110V power adaptor.

The additional mods give you variable new sounds and extra fun :

*Bass Boost – Bass Cutoff by one Octave

*Env Mod Low – Turn Env amount to a lower range

*Env Mod x 3 – Env Mod extend to 3 x the range

*Increased Filter Low End – Lower cutoff range to a degree

*Resonance Boost – Boost up the resonance

*Resonance Accent Increase – Boost up the Resonance Accent

*Variable VCA Decay – A pot to control Variable Decay

*Filter Modulation (VCO) - select the saw or the square as the modulation source independant of the what you have selected for the VCO

*Filter Modulation (VCA) - Taking the signal from the VCA out (C38) as the modulation source

*Devilfish Filter Overdrive - Overdrive effect

*Muffler Like Distortion - The DevilFish has a post VCA soft-clip distortion called "The Muffler" that apparently retains bass response.

(Above mods can be switch off independently and switch back to original x0xb0x setting)"
