via this auction
"Here is a vintage Serge panel filled with great modules. It is just a panel so it doesn't include a power supply (you'd have to integrate this with another Serge system or get a power supply for it). Works and sounds amazing! Includes: New Timbral Oscillator (unique!), Dual Universal Slope Generator, Ring Modulator, Wave Multipliers (awesome unique module), Mixer, Variable Q Filter (killer), Universal Audio Processor, Extended ADSR Sold as is with no returns so please no what you're buying. This is a silver panel from the original Serge days which is harder to come by! Note that the panel below it is not included in this auction and is an experiment with misc additional modules I've had from different Serge systems..."

"This is a very rare Sequential Circuits Model 700 Programmer designed to work in tandem with synths like Arp 2600s, Minimoogs (with CV) and other analog synths that didn't have the ability to store patches to have some of that capability. It includes a lot of great on board features. This particular unit still has the box and was barely used making it very close to new for such a vintage piece from the late 70s! Here's more info: RARE SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS 700 SYNTHESIZER MEMORY / PROGRAMMER This vintage analog synth programmer was designed and developed by Dave Smith, founder of Sequential Circuits back in the later part of the 1970's. This particular unit was used on a Mini-Moog to assist in live performances and offered extremely swift and accurate recalls of analog synthesizer parameters. Overall, I'd say that this unit ranks a 7 out of 10 due to some of the lettering has worn off the front panel, there's a few light scratches, and there is a small amount tape residue on the top of the real panel [see photos]. Unfortunately I was unable to test it but was working fine and trouble-free when it put in storage - a bedroom closet - about 10 or so years ago so I can not say if it's working or not [However, When last used, it offered smooth, easy and trouble-free operation]. The unit powers up and the red LED display is strong & bright and the unit steps through the bank & program numbers like it's supposed to. It has the original, knobs, pots, switches and lighted push-buttons - All in working condition with a nice, rugged feel. Serial number is which I believe indicates that this unit was one of the first ever produced of the 700 series. I have recently been told that only 25 of these units were made so here's your chance to own a piece of Sequential Circuits early history. Below is a brief description and info I found on-line

Blue EML 200 Modular Analog Synth

via this auction
"Here is a very rare vintage analog modular synth from EML called the EML 200 Modular System. From the makers of the Electrocomp comes a more flexible unique sounding synth! The condition is very good with some minor chips in the paint that are barely noticeable from a distance. It's a beautiful blue synth! Very few were made and even fewer were blue (most were silver/plain). Note this is not 1/volt per octave but EML's own scaling and it does not include a keyboard so it's more for processing and special effects (unless you can find an EML keyboard or some other trick with a CV to midi converter and scaling)."

New MFB Tanzmaus Analogue Drumcomputer in the Works
It looks like MFB has a new drum machine in the works.
Spotted on sequencer.de:
"Tanzmaus (dancing mouse) is a 4-7 instrument drum machine quite like the Xbase09 was – so this is a smaller version of the Tanzbär Drummachine (dancing bear) which is bigger than a mouse.
4 instruments on top – the bottom rights may be something for the hihats.. so it’s 5/6 instruments – at the bottom I found 7 “things” so – I assume it will be a 7 instrument drum machine with step input."
Doepfer Announces Black & Yellow A-124SE Special Edition Wasp Filter Module
via PatchPierre.Net
"Quite unexpected, Doepfer announced a black A-124 Wasp filter with yellow knobs today.
This module comes as a limited edition and will be available through your local dealers. (order no. A-124SE)
Great marketing-idea by Doepfer IMO, especially to promote the recently announced colored knobs. All kinds of color-schemes are possible now..."
This could be an interesting new direction for Doepfer who is known for their almost clinical grey modules. It would be fun to see a system filled with different themed modules. On the practical side it would make finding modules in a complex system much easier. Imagine finding filter types based on their original color schemes.
