"THE SYNTHESIZER - 2nd Edition

Made by Roland c. 1982

Here we have a very nice and very clean set of instruction booklets printed by Roland around 1982. This four book set includes: Book #1 - "A Foundation for Electronic Music", Book #2 - "Practical Synthesis for Electronic Music (Vol. 1)", Book #3 - "Practical Synthesis for Electronic Music (Vol. 2)", and Book #4 - "Multichannel Recording for Electronic Music." This second edition looks to be a reprint from an earlier version done in 1978 or 1979. Again, this is a very clean set that appears to be pretty much unused."

"Don't let its small size fool you. The Prophet 12 Module boasts the same power and sound as the Prophet 12 Keyboard. Each of the Prophet's twelve voices is composed of a brand new hybrid digital/analog architecture that sounds different than any other DSI line of synths, yet retains the true Prophet vibe. With a humongous twelve voice polyphony, sophisticated architecture, and sleek design, the Prophet 12 is ready to handle any sound in any setting.

A voice as big as the rest

The Prophet 12's brand new hybrid voice has a digital front end followed by an all analog signal path output. Each voice has five high resolution digital oscillators, a digital character effects section, a resonant Curtis low-pass filter, a high-pass filter, a tune-able feedback circuit, a four-tap delay line with feedback per line, four loopable five-stage envelope generators, four syncable LFOs with slew and phase offset, a sophisticated arpeggiator, and a sixteen slot modulation matrix with 26 mod sources and 97 modulation destinations. The Prophet 12 Module is packed with a plethora of sonic potential and power!

Frequency and amplitude modulate the oscillators with incredible accuracy. Freely assign oscillators in whatever operator and modulator configurations you choose. You can even assign each of the oscillators to modulate LFOs, envelopes, and filters.

Et tu, control?

The Prophet 12 Module's streamlined interface invites quick and easy control of every parameter on the synth. Each synth section can be selected at the press of a button with every parameter editable from the crisp OLED display. Easily create modulation assignments using the Assign Mod buttons. Dedicated Low and High Pass Filter potentiometers provide quick and smooth control of the filters.

The Prophet 12 Module has a rugged steel enclosure and is equally at home on your desk, in your rack, or on stage! An extensive MIDI implementation covers every available parameter on the synth and you can easily pair it with your favorite MIDI controller or DAW.

The Prophet 12 Module

The Prophet 12 is the most cutting edge hybrid synthesizer on the market and defines what a modern polyphonic synthesizer is. Designed and manufactured in San Francisco, the Prophet 12 Module has a glorious combination of form and function in a sturdy, portable and elegant build."

"..wonderful little helper, called the Digitar. Connect it betweeen keyboard and Synthesizer and play chords like a guitarist. It's pretty easy and sounds very realistic. It's not the sounds that have to be super-realistic, it's the playing technique!"

Hohner Drum Performer "the German LinnDrum"

"This is a very unknown and underrated drum machine from the early 80s. It's being compared to the LinnDrum a lot because it has the same powerful fatness in sound and ease of programming. It's also based on 12-bit samples and sounds amazing. Please send me your email for some audio demos. It's in nice condition, has some scratches, but works perfectly. I'm only shipping to European Union and USA."

Yamaha VL-7 Physical Modeling Synthesizer

"This is a magic little machine. The VL-7 is half of its bigger brother the VL-1. It only has one voice instead of two, hbut they share the same amazing technology. A shame that Yamaha doesn't use it anymore! it produces the most realistic horns of all kinds, especially the sax is amazing. If you also use a breath controller, sky is the limit. This piece works perfectly and comes with four discs and a power cord. It has some issues on the outside, some scratches and one crack on the left side. Still an amazing instrument, which I hate to let go. But I don't have the use for realistic stuff, because I prefer good ole analog synths at the moment... International shipping is not necessarily € 120,- i will try to get a better price for shipping as soon as I know where the VL-7 is going. The power supply works is 220-240 Volts."
