SMS to Serge Converter Panel

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated. via this auction

"very rare Serge to SMS converter panel. What this panel does is convert Serge Modular CV signals to Salamander Modular Synth signals. At its core, this module is a banana jack to 1/8" jack converter, however it is an active module and also provides for voltage attenuation via two switches. For every input, there are two outputs and the module contains two discrete sections: one specifically for going from banana to 1/8" and one for going from 1/8" to banana connectors."

via this auction

"Rare Buchla Original Frequency Quad Voltage-Controlled Envelope Generator Model 284.
Historical Vintage Series 200 Synth System.

Dimensions approx. 8.5" x 7" x 3"

Adds voltage control and variable delay and duration times to the capabilities of the Model 280 (Four independent envelope generators with variable attack and decay times (range is .001 to 10 seconds) and a choice of sustained or transient operation. Input pulses initiate envelopes and optionally control duration time; output pulses, activated at end of decay, are particularly useful for advancing sequencers or looping to inputs to generate repetitive functions.).
All times are internally variable from .002 to 10 seconds; control voltages may be used to extend this range and control overall time while preserving envelope shape. http://www.buchla.com/historical/b200/284-vcenvgenerator.html"

"Rare Buchla Original Frequency Quad Spatial Director Model 204.
Historical Vintage Series 200 Synth System.

Dimensions approx. 8.5" x 7" x 3"

Voltage controlled quadraphonic distributor for determining the spatial location of sounds with pan pots or externally applied voltages. Monitor switches and voltage controlled attenuators are included.

The 204s features include:

4 electronically isolated 2-dimensional joysticks with output voltages proportional to lateral and vertical displacement. Generally used to control sound location, but may be used to control other parameters.

4 gain controls for signals applied to inputs. Control voltages may alternatively be used to control amplitude.

Control voltage inputs for defining positions of sounds. Increasing voltages move sounds from rear to front and from left to right. Voltages are generally (but not necessarily) derived from adjacent joystick outputs.

Monitor switches for use in conjunction with the Model 226 Quad Monitor Interface.

via this auction

"Rare Buchla Original Dual Oscillator Model 258.
Historical Vintage Series 200 Synth System.

Dimensions approx. 7.5" x 4" x 3"

Two independent voltage-controlled oscillators, continuously tunable from 5 Hz to 20 kHz. Each has two processing inputs and a frequency modulation input. Waveshapes as well as frequency can be voltage controlled. Model 258 oscillators feature low sine wave harmonic content, negligible settling error, and high short and long-term stability, even with rapidly changing ambient temperatures.

Controls and I/O

Processing inputs
Two processing control inputs permit multiple control of pitch without need of separate external processor.
Processing controls
Used to set desired range of frequency control. Expansion, compression, and inversion of scales are accomplished here.
Frequency modulation control
For adjusting vibrato depth or creating clangorous or bell-like tones, rich in non-harmonic partials.
Output
Signal amplitude is +4 dB. Output impedance is 600 ohms.
Oscillator frequency control
Spans the audio spectrum of 5 Hz to 20 kHz with no range switching. (Applied control voltages can extend limits to .1 Hz and 30 kHz.)
Waveshape control input
Waveshapes can be varied from sine to saw (osc 1) and sine to square (osc 2). Voltage control of waveshape enables powerful dynamic control of timbre."

Rare Buchla Polyphonic Keyboard Model 237 Electric Music Box for Auction

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction

"Very Rare Buchla Polyphonic Keyboard Model 237 Electric Music Box

Dimensions approx. 22" x 8" x 4" / 13.5 lb
Authentic Buchla Associates Berkeley, California.
Keyboard is in very good vintage condition. No serious damages. Shows some signs of use and the age.
I cannot test it due to lack of equipments. Sold AS-IS!

This keyboard provides the musician with the means to achieve direct expressive control of the Electric Music Box's many voltage-controlled parameters.
Model 237 has 37 keys (3 octave) and 3 voice polyphonic outputs; built-in processor allows polyphonic output voltages to be transposed or modulated by applied signals and control voltages.
Model features velocity and pressure outputs. Velocity output voltages are proportional to initial striking force; pressure outputs are actuated by applying pressure at bottom of key travel.
Key voltage outputs are equal interval -- any equal-tempered scale may be readily tuned with the processing and offset controls built into Electric Music Box oscillators.

New C64 Multisound Synthesizer

via David Stamba on Facebook

"New ! Multisound Synthesizer by Romik Software on mycommodore64.com !

After few months away from all the Commodore 64 madness, here we’re finally back with a nasty software to make SID roar like a beast! Let’s start with the official description : Multisound Synthesizer by Romik Software – 1983

'A versatile musical instrument with which even an inexperienced user can quickly learn to produce a wide variety of sounds. Many musical instruments can be emulated including flutes, pianos and guitars.

Multisound may be used as a simple keyboard or tunes can be created and appended in memory and then saved on tape. A merge from tape facility allows the creation of long complex works.

Eight full octaves are available to the user, the keyboard covering three continuous octaves at any time. These may be altered whilst playing or during playback.

A visual display provides feedback on the keyboard operation, greatly aiding real-time and allowing easy entry of individual notes in preset mode.

Provision is made for a repetitive keyboard background tune or drum routine up to 85 notes. Ten such tunes may be entered by the user and stored in memory. A further eight drum routines are predefined.
The synthesizer incorporates independent selection and control the foreground, background and special effects oscillator waveforms. The latter being used to provide extensive special effects facilities including ring modulation, synchronisation, and sweeping on the foreground note, pulse width, filter cutoff, and filter resonance.'"

•Outputs:
Audio output

(ES) Schmutz es un dispositivo distorsionador fuzz controlado por voltaje. Cuenta con un control Dry/Wet, y control de octava superior, con el cual añadimos al sonido distorsionado la octava superior del sonido procesado.
La paleta de sonidos comprenden desde la destrucción total del sonido, pasando por un toque metálico/modulador en anillo, hasta un suave "overdrive", siempre manteniendo el nivel de graves. Es muy versátil, apto para todo tipo de instrumentos, incluidas las voces.
Si quieres emular la época dorada del sexo, drogas y rock and roll, o simplemente añadir un toque añejo de dictador de los años 30 a tus discursos ante el espejo o en el bar, este es tu dispostivo ideal.

Avalable ONLY in our workshops or through downloading from our web and DoIngYourself.
Next Workshop 16,17 Feb. 13 @ Hangar.org PobleNou BCN, ES.
