"Unpacking the Buchla 200e three weeks ago...
The system arrived in time for my birthday. The shipment was very fast.
I was very impatient to make a quick patch to get a first impression.
Since then I did test the different modules and I must say that I appreciate the Buchla very much!"

Bottom: "Pictured here on the left is the Mk1 VORTEX protype #7 and on the right the fully tested #8. These guys sound excellent! So there's going to be the desktop version, right? Yes- how about a keyboard version- any plans for that? Yes. Are you going to sling in an extra oscillator for bot Audio and VC LFO on the keyboard model? Correct..........rauk on!"

ARP 3620 Keyboard Control Section

via this auction

"Complette ARP3620 keyboard module and connector. It's the later, duophonic version of the ARP2600 keyboard. Good condition, to rebuild a keyboard or to gain (very rare!) ARP spare parts. Two 2N3958 transistors have been pulled (but there are serveral sources for them on the net). Sold explicitely as broken."

iSynth iPad Synthesizer Review

YouTube Uploaded by ipadloops on Nov 18, 2011

"This is my review for iSynth Version 1.0 - iSynth (not to be confused with the iPhone photo editing app) is a virtual monophonic analog-synthesizer for your iPad. iSynth is designed and optimized for live performances. So far NOT my favorite synth. This is version 1 and there is no support for CoreMidi. The key selling point to this synth is the fact that you can stream the audio from it to an AirPlay device. I do not have an AirPlay amplification system so I could not test this feature. Other than that it's pretty much your basic monophonic dual oscillator synth for the iPad. I did not like how the knobs behaved. They were difficult to control. I also did not like the fact that this synth can not be flipped horizontally. I use an Alesis iO Dock and it is designed to be used horizontally. I also noticed clicking in one preset."

"I have a Serge synthesizer on loan at home and go look for it's secrets in these two short movies. I'm using a a lot of feedback in this patch to make the different parts of the patch modulate itself."
