"Offered for sale is this Rhodes Chroma in excellent cosmetic condition and as near perfect working order as could be hoped for. It has had an extensive service and been thoroughly-upgraded for trouble-free use (*remember it is a Chroma!) with no expense spared. The work was carried out by James Walker at Synth Repair Services who even exceeded his usual high standards - we requested that everything possible that could be done should be done.

It has had the CC+ CPU upgrade board installed, which adds additional functionality (including Midi) and stability, and a new SPSU power supply kit by Luca Sfregola. Many original ageing parts have been replaced and the synth has been calibrated and PAT-tested for electrical safety. The results are better than we'd hoped for and the synth autotunes without error practically all the time (we cannot guarantee that it won't fail now and again, it is a Chroma).

It comes loaded with four banks of 50 sounds courtesy of the CC+ kit and sounds fantastic; the wooden keys are a delight to play and overall the synth looks beautiful. This Chroma has had a quiet life and is consequently in very good cosmetic order, with no major flaws to the finish. The wooden end cheeks have some scuffs, dings and staining - as you'd expect from a vintage synth - but there was nothing overly detrimental to its appearance. Some people like a modern re-finish, but we prefer where possible to leave the original and appropriate vintage patina on vintage equipment. There has been no touching up of the paint/metalwork anywhere - a few minor nicks and chips are present. A couple of keys have some very light pitting and the control panel finish is starting to lift around the screws at the very edges. Old Chroma flightcases are notorious for the foam distintegrating and this one was no exception - it has been professionally refoamed to a high standard by 3D cases. Included in the sale is the original dual pedal set, the bound manuals, various program cassettes, and of course the Midi breakout box.

There are no known faults with this synth."

"Great little controller for CV sequencing.

module a-154 is a supplement to the a-155 analog/trigger sequencer module. it offers a lot of new features that are not available in the basic control unit of the a-155. the a-154 is used to replace the control unit of one or two a-155, i.e. the section marked "control" with start / stop / step / reset buttons and inputs in the upper left corner of the a-155 front panel. if the a-154 is used to control the a-155 the control section of the a-155 is put out of action.

these are the features of the a-154:
* several running modes: forward, backward, pendulum, random, cv controlled step adressing. all modes are available as loop or one-shot.

* led display of the 5 different current modes and one led for loop/one-shot display

* manual and voltage controlled selection (with attenuator) of the running mode. if no external control voltage is applied one of the 10 modes (5 modes x 2 loop/one-shot) is simply selected with a rotary knob. the cv input with attenuator is used to modulate the running mode with an external control voltage (digital high/low cv to switch between two modes or continuous analog cv to sweep through different modes). with the combination of manual control and cv with attenuator it is possible e.g. to use only two neighbouring modes (e.g. forward/backward) or sweep through all possible running modes

* manual and voltage controlled selection (with attenuator) of first and last step of the sequence. the range is step 1...8 in 8 step mode resp. 1...16 in 16 step mode

* if the running mode "cv controlled step address" is selected the first step section is used to determine the active sequencer step. consequently manual and voltage controlled selection (with attenuator) of the active step is possible: the active step can be set by hand with the first step manual control and then modulated by an external control voltage (e.g. lfo, random, s&h, theremin, light cv source, joy stick) at the first step cv input (with attenuator)."

Richard Devine MakeNoise - Creature III Patch Outtake


MakeNoise - Creature III Patch Outtake from Richard Devine on Vimeo.

"Third patch outtake from the Creature series. This patch was contrived completely using only these MakeNoise modules, Pressure Points, Rene, Optomix, Moddemix, Wooglebug, Maths, DPO (Dual Prismatic Oscillator), Echophon, and Phonogene. The patch was clocked using the Wooglebug as the main tempo, and then sent to 4 different sources. Trills courtesy of the Maths output then triggering sporadically the strike inputs on the Optomix. Rene CV plots the pitch inputs on the DPO and fluttering CV/Gate data to the Phonogene. Woogle stepped out controlling various parameters on Echophon, and Phonogene for extra animation. Reverb splashes by the Eventide Space pedal which was used on the Echophon feedback output and return. One output on pressure points to toggle on and off the freeze function on Echophon for the held feedback effects. This patch was inspired by Morton Subotnick's 'Sidewinder.' "
