"This thing sounds amazing. It has the coveted SSM 2044 VCF, same as the Korg Polysix, among others. It's got a lot of features that set it apart from being just another Polysix or Juno 6/60 type synth. There's the possibility to stack voices, split the keyboard, an onboard sequencer (can even use the sequencer in split mode), ring modulator, super warm and lush on-board chorus, glissando, MIDI I/O. This is a powerful synth capable of some killer analog warmth."

Arp Odyssey MKIII

via this auction

"Late Model Odyssey circa 1980. A few scuffs here and there, but near mint and even sides hardly have a mark on them. This odyssey has been professionally overhauled. The boards were throughly bathed, all tantalum capacitors replaced, the sliders cleaned with isopropanol / lubricated with a silicone base and everything calibrated. The 4072 filter range has been extended from 12kHz to ~22kHz (correcting the design flaw actually) so it sounds a bit brighter than other mkIII's when the filter is all the way open, but the filter sound and response is otherwise identical. No other mods are present. It comes with 3 new spare sliders, one of each kind the synth takes. Ships in a custom fit Anvil hard case that has good thick foam, no old rotten gross stuff."

RIP Charanjit Singh

Mumbai-based Charanjit Singh has passed away at the age of 74. For those not familiar with him, he was an electronic music pioneer that many claim to have inadvertently created the world's first acid house record, notably with the Roland TB-303. You can listen to it above.  Note his was recorded in 1982. You can see him pictured below with a Roland Jupiter-8 and TR-808.   You can find a previous post on the release here.

via The Guardian:

"Electronic music pioneer Charanjit Singh, 74, has died. The cult figure, who was noted by some as the creator of the first ever acid house record, died at his home in Mumbai on 3 July.

Charanjit Singh on how he invented acid house ... by mistake

Although he had forged a career as a session musician playing on numerous Bollywood film soundtracks throughout the 1960s and 1970s, the producer’s proto-acid music had a revival in 2010, when his 1982 album, Ten Ragas to a Disco Beat, was reissued by record label Bombay Connection. Although Singh was reluctant to claim his part in the evolution of the genre, the album was one of the earliest records to use the Roland TR-808 drum machine and the Roland TB 303 bass synth – a machine that built much of the acid house sound.

'There was lots of disco music in films back in 1982,' Singh said, in a 2011 interview with the Guardian. 'So I thought, why not do something different using disco music only. I got an idea to play all the Indian ragas and give the beat a disco beat – and turn off the tabla. And I did it. And it turned out good.'"

Yamaha Reface Synths Leaked

Update: Details are here.

Four mini synths:

CP electric piano.
YC combo organ
CS synth
DX synth

These line up with the teaser pic here.

Curious if the CS will be a digital emulation or analog. If it's polyphonic, based on the size, it would likely have to be digital, not that there's anything wrong with that.  Roland's Aira line was originally ill received by many when it was revealed that they would be digital.  They are now pretty much well revered by all. I own an AN1x, Yamaha FS1R, DX-200 and CS60. All are fantastic sounding synths.

We'll have full details tomorrow.
