Max for Cats

Published on Jun 10, 2014 max forcats·5 videos

"The synths are a string Ensemble with String Chorus and Phaser and a Synth called Digital – it is a mixture of additive and wavetable…"

ENSEMBLE: Inspired by the classic string machines of the 1970s, Ensemble is a Max for Live string synthesiser with a unique built-in morphing formant filter. Ensemble also includes chorus and phaser effects which can be used separately.

DIGITAL: Max for Cats presents DiGiTAL, a powerful polyphonic synth that fuses aspects of additive, wavetable, frequency modulation and subtractive synthesis. DiGiTAL is distinctly designed for creating new sounds and provides a comprehensive set of controls expressly for this purpose.

ANALOG TECHNO: Sample Magic delivers the grit and soul of machine-made techno with hundreds of loops crafted from analogue synths and hardware. This Pack comes loaded with pounding beats, raw synth lines, dirty basslines, dubbed-out chords, processed vocals and much more.

DUB MACHINES: Dub Machines is a pair of expertly designed Max for Live devices that reproduce, and expand on the sound of classic tape and analog delays. With vintage character, extensive control and deep sound-shaping capabilities, Dub Machines is ready to take any sound into space.

Jomox XBASE 09 Roland 909 style Drum Machine

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"A modern classic. The Jomox XBASE 09 has been used by electronic musicians for the past 20 years, not just for its 909 sounds, but also its features and editing that supersedes what it tries to emulate. Worth having for the kick drum and snares alone, with more parameters to fine tune to perfection (including a limiter for added harmonic distortion) and the ability to automate every parameter on every step in the sequencer. Different level of decay, pitch, attack, snap, accent, the possibilities are huge with the XBASE 09.

To put it simply, this machine can do things that the 909 can't. On top of everything mentioned, you can also tune the high hat, rim shot, and clap sounds, not to mention, automate them at every step. At a quarter of the price its a good buy for anyone looking to overhaul their drum sounds with powerful analog that cuts through the mix.

Comes with original manual, power adapter, has MIDI and DYN SYNC support as well."

Teisco SX-210 Vintage Analog Polyphonic Synthesizer w/ Orig Bag SN T-7018

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

via the seller:

"Up for sale is super rare Teisco SX-210 Vintage Analog Synthesizer (also known to be manufactured under the name of Kawai).

The unit turns on, but nothing shows up on the main display and the keys are not producing any sound. I managed to have it produce very slight sound as I tried changing some of the settings, but the output level is very low and has noise on it so I'm selling this AS IS for you to use with some servicing done.

Otherwise, all the LED lights on the buttons appear to light up correctly, with Increment dial and the display beside responding fine. I'm guessing it might do with the internal battery replaced."
