Drumfire DF-2000 Vintage Analog Rackmount Drum Synthesizer SN 21787

via this auction
"The Drumfire DF-2000 is a 2 channel rackmount drum synth.
The 2 channels are identical, with their own Trigger-In and Audio Out sockets.
Each channel is a mini analogue synth drum module, capable of producing a wide range of electronic drum sounds, and since every parameter is defined by a knob, it's highly tweakable.

The 2 drum channels each have
SENSITIVITY-controls pickup/trigger in sensitivity
OSCILLATOR DECAY-controls decay time of the synth oscillator
NOISE DECAY-controls decay time of the noise sound
SWEEP-alters oscillator frequency
CLICK (Switch)-adds a click sound to the attack
PITCH-changes oscillator pitch
BALANCE-controls balance between oscillator/noise
VOLUME-output volume to mixer
PAN L/R-balance control, also allow dual output on L/R jacks
One out can be daisy chained to the next channel's input, so cascading up to a 2 oscillator synth drum sound! Great for crazy/weird/techno-y drum sounds."

Hinged KORG MicroKORG with Movable Front Panel

via psycliq where you'll find more pics and details.

"The new casing is made completely of red oak, a nice dense hardwood, with a thin but sturdy piano hinge to hold the pieces together. It folds through three positions from a very MS20ish almost-straight up and down, a more Moogy reclined angle, and all the way back to the original flat MicroKorg shape."

Experiments with the Array System Implementation on ICON iStage Keyboard

YouTube Uploaded by elohess2 on Feb 12, 2012

"A new musical experiment. I've made a Array System template for the ICON istage keyboard. The video shows how it works.

At 25:50 you can hear a song jam improvisation with a synthpad sound. This shows how easy it is to make ambient soundscapes with this keyboard layout.

For more information about the "Array System" see here: http://thearraymbira.com/arraysystem.php

Here's a blog about the implementation on the keyboard. In the blog you will find a image how the notes are organized."
