"Very rare opportunity to get your hands on a Plan B Model 24 Heisenberg Generator module. These haven’t been in production for years and rarely come up for sale. I’ve just checked this and it is working perfectly. An incredible module it’s primarily for producing stepped and smooth random voltages but it can also act as a sample and hold, a vc slew limiter, a vc trigger generator, a gate to trigger converter and an amazing digital noise source!!"

"There is also a Kp3 and a Kp2 mini for good measure. Inspired by all the snow outside here.
A slight different version at soundcloud, no beginning or end, it was me playing getting the sounds before I did this video basicly. https://soundcloud.com/miles-baskett/..."
"Martyn Ware, founding member of the Human League and Heaven 17, as well as the British Electric Foundation and Illustrious, demonstrates the Roland System 100 and the Korg 700S 700. These are the original instruments that he and Ian Craig Marsh wrote and performed the original version of Being Boiled on.
This was the climax to a 45 minute talk given by Martyn, accompanied by the great Peter Howell of the BBC Radiophonic Workshop, at the Queen Elizabeth Hall, Southbank Centre, London, on the night of November 30th 2013. It preceded a performance by the BBC Concert Orchestra in the main hall, as part of their "The Rest is Noise" season. They performed works by Andrew Poppy, Michael Nyman and commissions by Anne Dudley, which saw the orchestra take on reinterpretations, or "remixes" of Art of Noise's "Into Battle" as well as a new work, Rhythm of a Decade, a mash up of themes from the decade, accompanied by a narration from Paul Morley.
All the other original members of the Art of Noise were present in the audience (Trevor Horn, JJ Jeczalik, Gary Langan), billed by them as a one off 30th anniversary reunion ;-)"
Update via Timothy Glasgow in the comments: "That's a straight 700; not a 700s."
He is correct. The 700s had extra controls and a black case on the top left of the keyboard. The 700 lacked this and had a wood or faux wood cover there. In the video you can clearly see the wood.
"Up for auction is a ready-to-use PreenFM DIY synthesizer. It may look a little toy-like, but it's actually a rather powerful little poly synth with a very unique sound character. Like Yamaha's classic DX synths, the PreenFM uses FM synthesis, but it is not a DX clone. Instead, it has a pretty distinctive sound of its own.
Basic specs:
FM Synthesis with 9 different algorithms.
4 to 8 voice polyphony, depending on which algorithm is used.
Modulation sources: LFO, EGs, step sequencer.
Modulation matrix.
MIDI In and combined Out/Thru.
MIDI control over all sound parameters.
The unit sold here was carefully built and is fully working. It has the latest firmware version 2.0 installed, which was developed in collaboration with French synth guru Olivier Gillet (aka Mutable Instruments). The unit is in good cosmetic condition. An EU power supply is included in this auction..."
"The Shruthi-1 is a powerful hybrid monophonic DIY Synthesizer designed by French synth guru Olivier Gillet. It uses digital wavetable oscillators and an analog filter.
The unit up for auction here uses the rare CEM3379 filter board based on a vintage Curtis CEM3379 filter chip, which was also used in the Sequential Circuits Prophet 2000 and the Ensonic ESQ1 and SQ-80. Due to the rarity of these chips, this filter board has been discontinued for quite a while.
Some basic specs:
2x digital oscillators with lots of different wave forms/oscillator models and cross modulation types (among them VCO sync, ring modulation, XOR-modulation)
digital sub oscillator, noise, attack generator (click, blow, ...)
CEM3379 24dB/Oct lowpass filter
2x LFO
2x ADSR envelopes
12x modulation matrix
arpeggiator
Modulation step sequencer
Audio input and output
MIDI in and out

The unit on offer here was carefully built and calibrated and is fully working. It comes with the latest firmware version 0.97 installed. There are some traces of use on the acrylic enclosure (some light scratches), but all in all it is in pretty good cosmetic condition..."
"Up for auction is a ready-to-use Sammich SID DIY synthesizer based on the legendary MOS SID (Sound Interface Design) sound chip of the Commodore C64. This is a powerful synth which doesn't only do the usual 8bit chiptune bleeps, but can also produce some pretty fat leads and basses.
For more info on the Sammich SID project visit:

The unit on offer here was carefully built from one of Wilba's original kits and comes complete with two original MOS8580 SID chips installed. To my ears at least, the 8580 with its improved filter is better suited for use in a synthesizer than the 6581. But of course, you could also install a pair of 6581, if you prefer those.
This unit is fully working and in decent cosmetic condition. The only major cosmetic blemish is on the back panel (see second picture), where you can see some smeared white paint from a semi-successful attempt to fill in the engraved inscription with a white permament marker. Not very pretty, alghough it doesn't affect the unit's functionality. To make up for it, I'm including a EU power supply in this auction. :) "
