"The Blofeld is an amazing synth, and it's the culmination of all of Waldorf's technology to date. It easily rivals the Virus in terms of analog emulation, and is more lush and analog-sounding than any previous Waldorf synth. It's also got all the wavetables from the Q, the Wave/MicroWave, and the PPG on board (even the "upper" wavetable from the PPG Wave 2.3), so it can do amazing sonic morphs and soundscapes. Plus two types of comb filters, a fantastic emulation of the PPG filter and its piercing resonance, a range of drive curves and waveshaping options, a killer programmable arpeggiator, and so on. Plus it's tiny, it's built like a tank, and it's got a beautiful, informative graphic display."

"The Nova IIX is one of the best virtual analogs ever made, which is why you don't see them for sale very often. The Nova II has the complete synth engine from the top-of-the-line Supernova II, and this is the X version, which means that it has 24 voices. It's got an unbelievably fat and smooth sound, and some features that most brand-new synth models don't even have. It can shriek, belch, and howl like a massive 80s analog polysynth, or it can be silky, sparkly, and ethereal like a D50 or WaveStation. Or both at once.

It's got multiple filter types, including many dual-filter configurations and an 18dB lowpass option that gives it a wicked, squelchy, 808 sound; 8 different FM and ring mod algorithms; virtual sync oscillators so you can use hard sync on a single oscillator without using up any of the other three oscillators per voice; modulatable doublesaw waves plus additional wave options via sync skew, formant width, and hardness waveshaping; the best programmable arpeggiator in the industry; balanced inputs and 6 independent outputs; an excellent 42-band vocoder; an internal power supply (just say no to wall warts!); user-rewritable memory for 512 programs; separate hardware controls for each multitimbral performance part; a constant gate button for the inputs and vocoder; and the icing on the cake—7 independent simultaneous effects on EACH of 6 multitimbral parts in a performance!"

Bee Gee's Music Synthesizer & Rhythm Machine -- 1978
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

"The Bee Gee's Electronic Music Synthesizer and Rhythm Machine. Takes a 9 volt battery. Works Great! On/off switch and volume control. Three different rhythms with a tempo button to speed up and turn off. Has a tuning button to change keys up and down. I listed it as "used" but I don't believe it's ever been used. The box is a little worn around the edges but the synthesizer is in very good shape."

TC-11 + Impaktor + Tabla
YouTube Published on Sep 15, 2012 by BitShapeSoftware
"Impaktor is a drum modeller from Beep Street (www.beepstreet.com) that uses the mic input as an impulse to generate and trigger drum synthesis. I started playing it on my desk, then triggered by my tabla, and finally with TC-11 alongside. I figured I'd share the fun with this video."

Sebastian Arnold - Driving A Spaceship [HD]
YouTube Published on Sep 14, 2012 by batzberlin
Performance on Drum Kit, Nord Modular G2, Nord Rack 2 and a Looper.
"Driving A Spaceship" from the new album "Interstellar Getaway".
iTunes: Sebastian Arnold
"SEBASTIAN ARNOLD is a genuine one-man band behind his drum kit and synthesizers. Watching him for the first time, you may think of someone driving a spaceship with drumsticks. However, his mission goes beyond flying: since 2008 the "mad scientist drummer" has been exploring the intersections of instrumental and electronic club music. All alone on stage, he is building song structures by layering loops and drum-triggered sequences with acoustic drums, keyboards and vocals. The result is an organic mixture of elektro, post-rock, drum'n'bass and indietronica. A stellar performance!
