Anyone know the brand of this one?

" This set of Pedals is really fun and unique! Customized and moded in a way that could open up a wide range of possibilities for the right musician. A list of the generous assortment of features includes:
Onboard Stereo Speakers (including a volume control with decent room volume for “unplugged” type practicing. For example: Would stand up to the volume of acoustic guitars strumming loudly, with singing).
Separate Left and Right 1/4” Line Outputs
Headphone Jack (1/8”)
Sustain Jack (for hooking up a Sustain Pedal). Note: This jack can also be routed as a start/stop for the Accompaniment Section*
Midi In and Out Jacks (selectable, Channels 1-16)
128 General Midi Onboard Sounds

Tone Groups:(8 tones in each)

10 Onboard Effects

Organ SP
Enhancer
Flanger
EQ Loudness
Layer / Split Function (32 voices, 16 part multitimbral)
Internal Transpose (up or down 6 steps)...
… and in addition ... an “external” 2 Octave Jump Switch (flip the switch and it takes the range of the Pedals up two octaves, or back down two octaves if you switch it back).
Tuning (for fine tuning)
*Accompaniment and Rhythm Sections:
These sections can output on *separate midi channels*, so you can even run the drums and backing tracks to high quality outboard samplers etc..
Also, if you hit a note while the accompaniment is set to play a chord... you can switch the mode button while it's playing and then you can use any of the sounds to solo over the accompaniment. And the accompaniment works such that if you hit one note, and it's a Major chord. Hit two notes and it's Minor. Hit three, it's a 7th. Hit four, it's a Minor 7th. There is a separate volume adjustment for the accompaniment section to boot. And if that wasn't enough,... whatever you are playing over the accompaniment on the Pedals is also going out of the midi output. Note: I have noticed that the midi output sends volume information that is kind of on the low side,.. so if you use a midi sound source, you will want to turn it up a bit (or switch off velocity sensitivity). This only applies to what you play on the Pedals themselves (not the Rhythm and Accompaniment sections - they output on separate midi channels, and at full volume).
Onboard Drum Rhythms (128 patterns with full Tempo Control)
Song Memory - 1 Song, real-time recording, up to 1,300 notes.
4 Set Up Memories - you can memorize a few of your special setups, and recall them later (things like layers, effect choice etc).
128 Pedal Playable Backing Track Phrases (various styles - these sound real nice).
This is a very solid piece of equipment with a black speaker type carpet covering and a carry handle on the side. A couple of additional details: You may see one speaker to the left on top... the other is mounted inside the pedal case on the right side. That is why you see a slot in the carpeted border near the sound source on the right side– to let the sound through.
These pedals are not made to be velocity sensitive. I personally do not find that useful when it comes to Pedals. A modification is possible to bring that function about, but it would add about $100 to the price. There are a few usable bass sounds in the module... one of which is a fairly decent sounding upright bass patch. These can be layered as well, so there are a lot of possibilities.
Another cool thing worth mentioning is that the pedal shafts themselves are the same type and shape as those used in the infamous Moog Taurus Pedals. They have a nice classic look to them."

MAM Warp 9 Wasp VCF filter effect rack with MIDI

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

via this auction

"From Music and More (MAM) in Germany comes the highly sought Warp9 Wasp Filter rack unit! These units are incredibly rare and have been praised for their unique sonic character.

The filter is based on that of the classic EDP Wasp from 1978, utilizing a 12dB/oct (2-pole) resonant filter with switchable lowpass, highpass, bandpass, and notch modes. There is a built-in ADSR envelope with Delay and an LFO with 9 waveforms for modulating the filter's effect. The LFO can also be MIDI clock synced for tempo matched modulation of the filter's cutoff, resonance, etc.

Other common analog filter effects such as Distortion, Velocity and Key tracking are also on-board. The LFO and VCA alone can lead to some creative modulated filter effects! The Warp 9 has full MIDI implementation which can send/receive all of its parameters. Every single knob and function has its own Continuous Controller assigned and it's also possible to send information with note pitch and velocity.

There is a mono audio in/out, MIDI in/out/thru, power jack, and CV trigger input on the unit. You can use an external MIDI controller to program the unit which makes it a breeze to use.

This unit is in excellent working condition and sounds FANTASTIC. It's been a difficult decision to part with this filter, I've never seen one come up on eBay before.

Comes with US power supply and shipped with the utmost care.

You can hear some demos of the unit on MAM's website.

Mode Machines Sid Synthesizer Sequencer Drum Machine with Gig Bag

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

via this auction

"Excellent condition. Very powerful synthesizer and drum machine. Rare and sadly discontinued.
The power is with the editor and midi synced patches with sequence like modulation routings! I have used it with an original SID MOS chip and enjoyed the quieter emulation of the swinsid. So if you wish, you can install a 6851 chip and move a jumper and have a SID only version.
Sequencer is a 2 track sequencer with track 1 reserved for bass or lead synth sounds and track 2 for a drum pattern drum machine.
There is also a poly mode which lets you play the Sid as if it were a 3 voice polysynth.
Note: there is a bit of bright noise at volume setting zero and and loudest setting. But none in between. (With swinsid or with sid chip)
It has the latest eprom firmware V2.3b3 from mode machines installed.
SID comes with ac adapter, manual and cd with latest editor.
Free travel case for fun!"
