ARP 2600 Patch Book - Full Scan in PDF Format

This one in via Ant (Rhythm Plate & YSE): "I have an update to the freely available ARP 2600 Patch Book .PDF file which was originally scanned by Pascal.W aka 'Analogue Monkey'. The pages can now be read in sequential order and they are all the right way around - I hope other people find this as useful as I now do."

You can download it here. BTW, even if you do not have a 2600 you can of course try the settings on other synths.

Update: It's also available on Korg's site here. Thanks goes to roetnig in the comments for the link.

YouTube Published on Jul 30, 2012 by davidryle "Demo of the Sputnik West Coast Random Source module. A clone of the 200 series Buchla 226 [Update via Chris Muir in the comments: "This is a 266 Source of Uncertainty clone. The 226 was a quad mixer."]. Way too much patching to describe completely. I was just having a go at trying out the various functions of the module. A more musical application of this device will be in order next.
Secondary effects include a low mix in of a delay and a variable panning.
Nine vco's, a Polivoks filter (Analog Craftsman), a Cyndustries QLPG, Sputnik VCS, Oakley Equinoxe and SSL Digital Delay are included in the signal chain.
The title is taken from the Solar CME happening at the time."

Makenoise DPO first encounters

YouTube Published on Jul 30, 2012 by donaldjasoncrunk

"having just returned from Trash_Audio synth meet 12 with a new Makenoise DPO and Toppobrillo Quantimator, i'm eager to dig into the modular. All the audio you hear is coming unmodified from the Dual Prismatic Oscillator.

apologies for the camera wiggle, sometimes you just have to rock out!"

via Jason Degelman on The MATRIXSYNTH Lounge

"some DPO action to enjoy. some folks might be interested...

this is pure DPO, no filters/effects/anything other than VCAs and clean mixing, lots of modulation from the rest of the modular obviously."

MOOG TAURUS SN 1217

via this auction

"This amazing piece of equipment was assembled on April 25th, 1975, which was within the first few months that Moog began producing them! The serial number is T1217. If I'm not mistaken, the first Taurus ever produced was given serial number T1001. That's vintage! All sliders, pedals, contacts, and five of the seven push buttons are 100% original! Aside from a couple of screws that have been replaced over the years, the only non-original parts of this synth are the push-button relay switches for both the "Taurus" and "Tuba" presets, which were just recently replaced. I can include the original, defective ones, if you so desire. I don't think you'll ever see a Taurus this old that is in this fantastic of condition, unless of course, you're in a museum! Sure there are a few surface marks here and there, but this thing is over 37 years old and built like a tank! No playability issues whatsoever. I recently had this Taurus looked over, cleaned, and serviced by Dean over at 5-Star Engineering in Mesa, AZ. Dean once worked on one of Geddy's Taurus' back in the 70's while working for Wonderland Music in Michigan, so you know this Taurus was in good hands! I have owned this Taurus since 1998 and while I used it occasionally for a RUSH tribute band I was in for a short time, most of its life has been spent in its case on the floor in my bedroom closet..."
