Soft cover version of the book. There appears to have been two hard cover versions as well. One posted here with a solid black cover with silver print and one posted here with the same cover in this current listing.  See those two posts for details on the book and some pics of the inside including sections you can read on the KORG PS-3200, Orchestra-85, SCI Prophet-5, Prophet-10, Pro-One & Polyphonic Sequencer, Moog Rogue & Prodigy, Korg Trident, and Realistic Concertmate-MG1. It looks like the inside pics were used for the current listing which is fine imo as the book is listed in very good condition: "A great in-depth introduction to modular analog synthesizers, drum machines, vocoders, and the like, with an entire chapter devoted to vintage equipment. Apart from a little cover wear, the book is in very good condition. Softcover, 376 pages. Copyright 1982. This item ships WORLDWIDE."

Yamaha REFACE DX VS DX7

Published on Jul 22, 2015 muzykujkropkacom

Note the reface DX is a 4 Op FM synth like the Yamaha DX-100 and TX-817 while the DX7 is a more powerful 6 Op FM synth. The FS1R rack steps it up to 8 Op and adds Formant synthesis. If you are not familiar with operators, think of them as oscillators that can be arrange in different patterns of feedback to each other for frequency modulation, the FM in FM synthesis. The different patterns are referred to as algorithms in Yamaha speak. For a general history and explanation of FM start with this article on Wikipedia.

4ms Spectral Multiband Resonator Beat Sync Jam

Published on Jul 28, 2015 4mspedals

"Here we're using just an iPod and mp3 file to control the entire modular system. The drums sounds are all from modules being triggered by the Spectral, and the bassline is part of the mp3 file.

A cable sends audio directly to the SMR from the iPod, where it's split into bands. Triggers are derived from each individual audio frequency band, which are then sent to drum modules to create an entire set based around the structure of one audio file!

You can drastically and dynamically remix tracks this way. Using as much or as little of the original sound as desired, you can cut and filter precise sections of the sound, all the while using the CV equivalent of each band to control and beat sync your modular system!"

"Here we have, direct from Germany, a true piece of rock and roll history. It is KMFDM's personal iconic Roland SH-101 monophonic synthesizer owned and played and featured on every KMFDM album since 1984! This synth is in immaculate condition and all functions 100% perfectly. Sounds awesome and barely has a scratch on it. It comes with SIGNED COA from Sascha of KMFDM, as well as original VCO mod grip, manual, and power supply. This is a truly epic piece of music history. I bought it directly from Sascha with the intention of keeping it for another 30 years, but I have a project that I need to fund, sadly. My loss is your gain. Here is your chance to own this museum-quality instrument that can be heard on every single KMFDM record dating back 31 years! Shipping to lower 48 United States, ONLY. Thank you. Bid hard and good luck!"
