"I don't know too much about this synth, but on the back label says "MANUFACTURED UNDER LICENSE FROM ARP INSTRUMENTS.INC."

The unit appears to be working fine to the best of my knowledge, however I didn't know how to make the SENSITIVITY knob and BEND switch work. Everything else seems fine, there is a pretty bad noise when you move the volume knob which you might want to do some servicing."

"Rare Sequential Circuits Studio 440 Drum Sampler with all the options. Max Memory, SCSI port etc. The Data slider could stand to be replaced. It still works. You can see from the pictures it broke off some time ago."


Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 With MIDI

via this auction
"One of the first fully programmable polyphonic analog synths [see this post for the first programmable polyphonic synths], the Prophet 5 is the most classic synthesizer of the eighties! It is capable of a delightful analog sound unique to Sequential's Prophet series in which the P5 was King! Five voice polyphony - two oscillators per voice and a white noise generator. The analog filters, envelope and LFO all sound great and are extremely flexible. The P5 had patch memory storage as well, which scanned and memorized every knob setting for storing and recalling your sounds - a desperately needed feature at the time!

The P5 lacked MIDI (a feature that came later on the P5 spin-off, the Prophet 600).

However, this one has a MIDI retrofit."

"In 2008 Future Music interviewed Simon Lord (Black Ghost, Simian, Lord Skywave) in his studio in London and came across this very rare synth built by his father."

Raspberry Pi Synth on Tiny TV

"I hooked up a USB bus-powered tiny TV to Piana. Now the little children of Stonehenge can play synthesizers. Or they could if I could find a similarly tiny keyboard."

Synthwerks FSR-1T Now Shipping

"Synthwerks is proud to announce the latest in our growing line of pressure sensing controllers - the Synthwerks FSR-1T Force Sensing Resistor Module with Toggle Switch/Gate is now shipping to dealers.

The FSR-1T is the child of the unholy union of the MG-1 Manual Gate Pushbutton module, and a FSR-1N Force Sensing Resistor module. It will provide the fastest manual gate you will ever probably find and on top of that you also get a pressure CV out. This would be the perfect module to accompany any drum modules (Tiptop Audio Drum modules for instance - pressure pressure CV to the accent inputs). The Gate out from the FSR section also has a threshold control that can be used to set the pressure out CV level where the gate will turn on. This allows events to be triggered in the middle of filter sweeps or other pressure controlled events for example.

Along with the FSR section is an electronic bi-directional switch. This switch is controlled by the gate out of the FSR section and can be connected (via an internal jumper) to respond to the gate before or after the threshold control. A front panel toggle switch select whether the electronic switch works in a Momentary (only on when the sensor is pressed) or a Toggle action (switching from A to B at each press). The switch is normalized to the +V so it can provide a second gate signal that follows the toggle/momentary action.

The module is very skiff friendly in that it is less than a inch deep.

Shipments are being assembled for Foxtone, Analogue Haven, MeMe Antenna, Equinox OZ, Rhythm Active and more. If you do finger drumming, or just want a big button to turn things on with - the Synthwerks FSR-1T is the module for you."
