Vintage MOOG Sonic Six Synthesizer & Service Manual

via this auction
"Here is some Specs from Moog:
To start, it is duo-phonic, utilizing two analog oscillators with three basic waveforms each plus tuning, modulation and scaling controls. There are two independent LFO generators with advanced control options not seen on other Moog synths (for instance, an X/Y knob is used to mix and balance the LFO outputs). Also on-board is a Ring Modulator (that can modulate either Osc. B or external audio) and pink/white noise generators.
Moog synthesizers are known for their filters, and the Sonic Six strays from the usual Moog in this area as well. While it is known that ARP stole a filter design from Moog for use in some of their 2600 and Odyssey models, leading to lawsuits between Moog and ARP, according to Mark Vail in "Vintage Synthesizers," the Sonic Six actually used some circuitry in its filters which were stolen from an ARP design, although ARP never sued Moog over it. However, later models of the Sonic Six were eventually fitted with a more traditional Moog designed filter. In either case, the filter is a low-pass 24dB/oct which offers the usual controls and is capable of self-oscillation. The VCA, however, has a rather limited set of controls - attack and decay plus a sustain on/off switch."

Crumar Performer 2 Vintage Analog String Synth

According to the seller: "A great keyboard that I've used mostly for the strings; it sounds much like an ARP Solina. Great for 70's and 80's stuff. The condition is definitely above average. All keys work flawlessly, most sliders are noise free (the resonance on the brass has a dead spot and some noise, but still functions. That has never caused a problem for me.).."

Vintage 1966 Korg Olson Donca Matic Rockmate Drum Synth
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"This is a vintage,original Korg Donca Matic Rockmate Drum Synthesizer Machine produced in 1966 in Tokyo,Japan and distributed by Olson Electronics in the United States. This was one of the first all-electronic solid state drum rhythm machines made. The company was originaly called "KEIO Gijutsu Kenkyujo Limited" when this was made before it became the Korg company. The case is made out of metal and measures 7.5" x 7.5", by 1-1/4" deep. One of the black inserts is missing from the volume knob and t are scratches on the case (refer to the pictures). All functions on the unit still work perfectly and it is powered by a 9-volt battery (not included) and it also has an AC adapter jack on it.
Works great! everything no distortion."

Video at the auction and the Michael Rucci channel below.
"This handmade synthesizer is played by bridging the contact points. There are 15 contact points, each of which plays a higher pitch. It is monophonic and will sound the highest pitch being played and 2 effect points.
There is controllable LFO that is activated by pressing the far left contact point and is fed to the square-wave oscillator producing quick modulation, or an almost distorted throaty sound. In addition to LFO speed there is a low pass filter and volume control. Also the far right contact point will create some interesting effects, responding well to light touches that can zap the frequency well out of audible range..."

Emmanuel Top - Acid Phase (live version with Elektron Analog Four, Virus TI, Ableton)
Published on Jul 9, 2013
"JUST FOR FUN I created a remix of Emmanuel Top´s all time rave classic "Acid Phase". I used no samples from the original. Instead I programmed a (slightly different from the original) 303 pattern on the Elektron Analog Four. The hookline is made with a sample from the "X-Static Goldmine" CD which has been used A LOT in the early 90s by the techno producers. It features basically ALL classic rave samples that we know from the early techno days. For further fun I added the Virus TI later.
Everything has been sequenced and launched live in Ableton with TouchAble and Mackie Control."
