"This is a very rare Yamaha GS-1 FM Synthesizer. 1 of 100 ever made it's Yamaha's first FM synth. It powers up about 1/2 the time. Sustain seems to be constant. Vibrato isn't working. A few of the patch buttons don't work either."

Videos of a modded one just went up here.

PPG Waveterm

via the seller: "This is a Waveterm A in the Waveterm B enclosure.

This is as per the factory upgrade to the 5 1/4 disc drives.

Serial number WT0200

Waveterm come with Data Cable.

Supplied with small Library from 1984 (the year not the film)

Unit is 110V and 220V selectable.

So far most of the systems are working however there seems to be a problem with the sample play back. We suspect that the operating systems disc may be corrupted. At present the Waveterm is being tested by one of the top UK Synth techs and I will provide more info as it comes in.

Additional Info
After much experimentation it appears that all systems work with the exception of sample play back. Fourier and Wave Tables operate correctly and can be seen and heard working. External Sampling comes in, you can see the waveform but playback is corrupted. Disc drives work correctly. Communications works correctly. The Waveterm has been tried with two different 2.2's and intern both 2.2's have been tried with two different Waveterms all with the same outcome weird sample playback. The only common item is the system software which we only have one copy of!!

Additional Info
I have been advised that a new systems disc is on its way from a very cool guy. I will contact Mr. Repair Monday and find out any more info. I have also been advised that I had over priced the unit so a new BIN price is now available. Having spoken to Mr. Repair we may have found the problem to be a faulty lead. We are in the process of getting a new lead so we can give it a go. OOOhhh i'm so excited!!"

Wavefront Classic Theremin

Comes with a tiny mug.

"One of the few concert quality Theremins still made in the world today. None of them, as beautiful as this walnut encased classic machine, built to recreate the iconic RCA Theremin sounds of the 1930's. This is as close to that famous timbre as you can get, without the hassle of using rare, unreliable tubes and high voltages. When this innovative instrument (the only instrument in the world you play by NOT touching it) first appeared to the public, people fainted in churches where they were performed, believing they were hearing the voices of angels.
Many early science fiction films featured RCA Theremins for their eerie soundtracks and experimental compositions. And if you're a fan of Clara Rockmore, you know this instrument can also perform an amazing repertoire of music in the right hands-- literally. Add guitar / FX pedals to modulate the output for special effects, or attach a MIDI device for controlling other MIDI instruments and synths (MIDI Theremin controller available on Wavefront's Site). The possibilities are endless. This model is so gorgeous and well crafted, it deserves a place on stage to showcase your theremin skills to the world.

Moog Rogue with Filter CV Mod

via this auction

"Not your typical Moog Rogue; every function and every key work beautifully. This great synth has even had a filter kit professionally installed. This means that you can control the voltage of the filter easily with anything from a Doepfer MCV4 MIDI to CV controller or any V/Oct synth module. You can see the 1/8th inch filter jack in the pics beneath "rogue." You can even control the voltage of the filter with a PC, using a MIDI to CV controller, how cool is that? A pre-MIDI synth filter being that precisely controlled has limitless possibilities. This synth can filter any sound you put through it as well as the notes being controllable with CV as well."
