Encore Electronics Announces Waldorf Microwave(XT) Expansion Card

via Encore Electronics

"The Waldorf Microwave XT DSP expansion board has the same functionality as the original out-of-production board. It adds 2 DSPs and memory to the original Waldorf instruments. This increases the polyphony from 10 to 30! Installation is extremely simple. No soldering necessary. It comes with mounting hardware.

Note: This only works with original Microwave XT instruments with version 3 board. Version 1 and 2 Microwave XT boards do not have expansion ports. The version of XT mainboard is shown after you finish booting the XT/XTk by pressing the Global (Utility) button (six clicks in) until you get to the system sub-menu. If the lower left of the display reads "Board #3" you can upgrade your XT. If it says "Board 1" or "Board 2" then the XT is not expandable. Please perform this basic check to avoid any disappointment. Also your XT/XTk must be updated to OS 2.29 (or newer) before connecting the expansion."

MIDI Designer Pro Editor for the Sequential Circuits Prophet 600 with Gigli Upgrade

New Prophet-600 iPad editor by MIDI Desginer Pro user austingreen.

"Everything provided by midi implementation is there, it's nice not to have to interact with the number pad for access to all the new and truly amazing functionallity the gligli firmware provides. The membrane pad is probably one of the few parts that will be harder to replace as time goes on and also one of the most vulnerable to damage. Anywho all the new LFO shapes, assigning the wheels, changing Env response curves, and adjusting and viewing +/- values are much easier now."

"Vintage ARP ProSoloist/DGX solo synthesizer model 2720, serial number 27200535. Cosmetics near perfect. All switches, sliders, knobs work. Key wires/aftertouch assembly needs cleaning/adjustment, some notes don't trigger right away. Will run further tests on Monday. All the presets work but the Bass seems to be low in volume relative to the other presets. When you turn the unit on it takes a few seconds before the power light turns on - I've noticed this on other ARPs (I sold a Little Brother a couple of months ago that did the same thing, and I have an AXXE that works the same way)..."

"Vintage japan analog synthesizer - Kawai SX-240. It is 8 voice polysynth with good sounding DCO and nice SSM filters. So, it is big and good looking machine, with cool led display, which displays the name of patch and some other additional info. The sound itself is wide and big, and you can add onboard quality stereo chorus effect. It has stereo outs, so you can get real stereo chorus sound, or just two separate synth sounds from left and right channels, that is synth is bitimbral. You can split keyboard for two zones, to get one sound from one zone and other sound from other zone. You can even layer one sound on the other sound on all keyboard, to get some complex analog sounds in stereo, really imressive possibility. It has solid bass due to sub osc in dco section. Also there is the "brass" effect which is just ring modulation in fact, so you can extend your sonic palette here. It has onboard MIDI interface. For backup of patches there are tape interface, you can easy make bank of your patches as .wav files on your pc. Patch editing is quite easy and quick, there is one data wheel for data entry, and 4 buttons for goes from one parameter to another, and every parameter indicates by dedicated led. Also there is joystick for sound tweaking, you can point it to bend dco and\or to filter cutoff.

Synth professionally serviced, it is in fully working order, cr2032 battery with socket installed, so no problems with leaking battery in future. Cosmetically it is in exellent shape, just few dings on the sides. There is original Kawai soft bag also, i can include it if you want. AC voltage for synth is 100/110 volt."
