Antimatter Brain Seed, Toppo Brillo Multifilter, Intellijel Quadra UStep and Rubicon
YouTube Published on Sep 11, 2012 by deadlover73
"heres a quick demo of the Antimatter Brain Seen. The Brain Seed is being clocked by the the 4th channel on the Intellijel Quadra. Trigger out of Brain Seed provides clocking for uStep and Timetable which are triggering Quadra and Tiptop drums modules. The Seed Out on the Brain Seed is providing pitch control of the Intellijel Rubicon and Frequency control on the Toppo Brillo Multifilter."
Portishead's Adrian Utley Meets the MiniBrute & Studio Tour
Artist & ARTURIA #19 - Adrian Utley (Portishead) meets the MiniBrute
YouTube Published on Sep 11, 2012 by Arturiaweb
Don't miss the studio tour below.
"We had the privilege to interview Adrian Utley, guitarist and synthesist from the world renown trip-hop outfit Portishead.
In this exclusive video shot in Bristol, Adrian shares his love for the MiniBrute analog synthesizer that he just got, and takes us on a massive sonic journey by hooking it up to his trustworthy Echoplex tape delay.

I wonder if he was thinking Modcan for the other modular manufacturer known for banana plugs. Buchla utilizes both, banana for CV paths and 1/8" style for audio.

Analogue Systems rs450 CV Recorder + Cwejman MMF-2 Stereo Multimode Filter
YouTube Published on Sep 10, 2012 by bigcitymusic
"Here's a patch we made to show the new Analogue Systems rs450 CV Recorder/Sequencer and the Cwejman MMF-2 Stereo Multi-mode Filter module. The Cwejman MMF-2 is filtering a basic saw wave bass from the Cwejman VCO-2RM running into a version of lowpass on the MMF-2. The kick and snare were created using Analogue Systems modules. The sixteenth note percussion is a modulated Cyndustries Zeroscillator through a Cwejman VCA, opened by the Cyndustries Four Transients module.
We've pre-recorded a few CV sequences into the incredible new Analogue Systems rs450 CV Recorder/Sequencer. It's being clocked by an A.S. rs200 sequencer (which is running the whole patch actually). We are switching between four or five preset sequences which in turn is controlling the pitch of a Cwejman RES-4 module.
The rhythms for this patch are derived from the 4ms Shuffling Clock Multiplier and we're also using a 4ms PEG module as a slow modulation source for the MMF-2. Rad!"

1979 EMS SYNTHI E VINTAGE SYNTHESIZER SN 7137 & SYNTHI-E SAVES THE DAY COMIC STRIP

SYNTH-E Saves the Day comic strip and pics of the inside below.
"For your consideration is this vintage 1979 Electronic Music Studios (EMS) Synthi-E analog synthesizer. Experts have estimated that this incredibly rare synth was produced in limited numbers, in fact, most approximate that less than 200 were manufactured. Of those that have been documented, it is difficult to find a better example, especially such a fine specimen with the original matching DKE keyboard (serial number 7137) and original patch cables. While highly collectible Synthi-A versions are somewhat accessible, the Synthi-E is virtually E-xtinct. Do not miss this opportunity own one of the coolest and rarest synths ever made, because it is possible another will not appear available on eBay for years to come.
The Synthi-E was designed by Tim Orr as an educational version of the Synthi that had a complete teaching course built around it for use in schools. It was intended as a teaching aid into the principles of sound synthesis and electronic music. Small, housed in a brief-case and D-battery powered, the Synthi E was perfect for the student or teacher on the go! Simple as it may appear, it actually has some sophisticated features:

-Input Amplifier with low (Microphone) and high (line) level inputs
-Envelope Follower providing a voltage proportional to the amplitude of the input
-Oscillator 1 with true exponential voltage control of frequency and three simultaneous output waveforms (sine, triangle and voltage controlled pulse)
-Oscillator 2 for slow control voltages such as glissando or vibrato
-Filter/Oscillator 3 with v.c. low, high and band pass filter or pure sine wave
-Modulator for envelope shaping or ring modulation
-Noise Generator
-Trapezoid Generator for multiple simultaneous trapezoid waveforms. These may be used for envelope shaping (trigger mode) or for low frequency waveforms (free run mode)
-Manual-Slide tape Controllers (2) for obtaining control voltages. One slide-tape is stepped and may be used as a keyboard and the other for variable control. One provides a trigger pulse. Both may be temporarily marked or written on
-Inverter to invert control voltages or signals
-Monitor Amplifier and Loudspeaker with two input mixer faders
-The optional 3-octave keyboard for controlling the Synthi E. This unit is a mechanical keyboard which plugs into the Synthi E. It provides the correct pitch voltage and trigger signal for the Trapezoid Generator. A switch on the Synthi E selects internal or external keyboard operation.
Modules:
- VCF 144/1 (Issue F)
- VCF 144/2 (Issue F)
- L.F. OSC 144/3 (Issue E)
- Input Amp Env followr 144/4 (Issue E)
- TRAPZD GEN 144/5 (Issue F)
- VCA O/P AMP 144/6 (Issue G)
This unit is in excellent working condition, and it sounds incredible."
