Note the EX-1 is not the pre-cursor to the GX-1. That would be the "EX-42 (1970–1977, stage model, design origin of GX-1)" according to the list of Yamaha products on Wikipedia.
"When released in 1977, the EX-1 had a $35,000 price tag. That's $125,000 today when adjusted for inflation. Don't miss your chance to get it for much, much less!
This is a very large instrument - 45" high x 60" wide x 32" deep and nearly 500 lbs! - and can only be shipped via freight. The $590 shipping cost is just an estimate. Within the Continental US, transportation costs (freight or mover) will vary depending on proximity to Los Angeles, and typically takes more than one week to schedule and deliver. International shipments will be considerably more expensive and will take around two weeks to schedule and deliver."
"This is the famous "lawsuit" version which has the moog filter. The unit is in full working order - it was recently serviced at Analogics. Calibrated, cleaned up and tuned up.This is a great synthesizer in many ways, it's good as a "middle man" with all of it's CV/GATE in's and out's, and functions well as a synthesizer to play lead riffs. The modulation is classic, with its LFO options and Sample and Hold feature.
Just listen to "Man Machine" by Kraftwerk, the fast, snappy ARP envelope is definitely present here! Cosmetically the unit is in pretty good shape, all sliders, slider caps, knobs etc are in tact. The original output jack for this instrument was RCA, I had it switched to standard instrument cable 1/4". This should save a headache. The sliders are surprisingly smooth considering the age of the instrument. All keys are level with no trigger issues, as this was just serviced."

"Before to start this Post, I would like to thanks the developer for HexAsound. Because it is Free, without ads and really cool, very well done... HexAsound is a little keyboard and a synthesiser which comes with a hexagonal keyboard layout. You can customise this keyboard size. 4 waveform types are available, Tremolo, Distortion, Wha Wha and 3 octavers. A Slider on the left side of the screen allows you to control seperately the Tremolo, the Distortion, the Wha Wha and the Volume. A Super App for Free, and once again a Big Thanks to the developer!"
"HexASound turns your iPad, iPhone, and iPod touch into a multi-tone generator instrument. The unusual keyboard layout, based on hexagons, has been especially crafted for multi-touch devices. It allows you to easily play any kind of tune in a bounded screen.
If you are new to music, learning would not usually have been that simple. The listing of usual scales and chords helps you see the patterns in the music thanks to the geometrical layout.
If you are a seasoned musician, HexASound can be used as an instrument in its own right or as a tool to help you transpose your favorite patterns.

"The Synthesiser comes with 2 interesting features. The first one is called Wribbon. "Wribbon" creates per-note pitch bend when your fingers move off keys, "Glissando" provides traditional, piano-style Glissandi. The second one is the Modulation module which links a synth component to a zone on the grid, then the number of living cell controls the parameters. There is no possibility to record your performance for the moment, but it is announced for the 1.2 version. WOPR is unique and its sound quality is really great. A Killer App!
WOPR is a mighty, 6-note polyphonic, stereophonic, twin oscillator, hairy-chested, medallion-wearing sonic pimp. Four waveforms plus noise; twin 24dB/oct low pass filters so fruity they're practically fermented; three assignable envelopes and a pair of delays form the ventricles of WOPR's throbbing heart. Unique modulation gives it a powerful brain, then the awesome full-width Wribbon keyboard provides the voice: pitch-perfect accuracy, with note-by-note free bending when your soul just has to soar. Modulation
A retro blast of classic 1970s computer science, Conway's Game of Life drives WOPR's modulation grid. Link a synth component to a zone on the grid, then the number of living cells controls the parameter. The progress of the game is linked to the tempo clock, one generation per beat. On WOPR's wrapped 16x16 grid, the Game of Life produces an uncountable myriad of regular, repeating patterns: perfect for rhythmic modulation.
Future releases
1.2 Audio copy
A mechanism to record, save and share audio clips created in WOPR. This is essential for using WOPR as part of a production made entirely on the iPad. Early January.
1.3 MIDI
Extended MIDI support, including clock sync, assigning custom controllers to any parameter and configuration options for more complex MIDI setups. March.
1.4 Presets
Community presets and a larger library.

"I've always loved flangers. When I started playing electric guitar as a kid a flanger was one of the first effects I got, and I've almost always had one since. In my modular synthesizer currently there are 3 modules that can work as flangers, and this is a short demo of them.
1. Blacet Time Machine - shortest delay time, use built in LFO for delay modulation, experiment with feedback knob.
2. Synthesis Technology e580 Resampling Mini-Delay - use the Tap output, set the back jumper to the 1-2 postion (feedback from the tap out - brought out to the front panel on my version)
3. Jurgen Haible Son of Storm Tide Flanger - dedicated flanger device, a super monster killer of the flanger world!
Audio is: bass - Ian Fritz Teezer Through Zero VCO being modulated by a MOTM 300 VCO going through a MOTM 190 VCA (driven by a MOTM 800 EG) being sequenced by a Music From Outer Space 16 step rotary sequencer. Treble: Synthesis Technology e340 Cloud Generator sequenced by a Ryk M-185 Sequencer. Clock confusion is supplied by the 4ms SCM/RCD. Various other modules that I've forgotten about were probably used, and it all ran through the Eventide Space device before being recorded straight to computer.
