via this auction

Note the listing states the Juno-106 was the first Roland synth to have MIDI. It was actually the JX-3P.

"Here is a complete list of the work that was done by Allen Coppock at Synth Spa in the States:

- Wooden end panels - custom made cherry hardwood end panels installed.

- Complete internal overhaul including new high quality voice chips installed (all six, so there are no risks of future failure)

- Update to new "socketed" voice chips so they can replaced easily, if they do ever fail

- Replacement of the battery and update with a battery holder (instead of the original soldered battery) for future replacement

- External clean of all the switches and buttons

- Cleaning of the key action and internal check / recalibration

- Update all LEDs and the 2-digit display to new ones

- Add a red pitch bend knob

- Add a 3-prong socket for the power input (standard "kettle cord" that most synths use)

- Voltage change to 240V for Australia, so you don't need a step-down transformer

- Restore all the original factory programmes"

Effects4YourSynthesizer Ep3: Glitchmachines Subvert

Published on Sep 20, 2015 Synth Anatomy

"In this episode of Effects4YourSynthesizer, I check out Glitchmachines Subvert.

Glitchmachines Subvert is a savage 3-Channel distortion processor designed to facilitate the decimation of the frequency spectrum. Based around 5 effects; multimode distortion, FM ring modulator, digitizer, metalizer and multimode filter, Subvert generates anything from subtle harmonics to relentlessly brutal distortions. Offering three channels of each effects chain and a wealth of modulation options, Subvert is our take on the ideal tool to inject your productions with a sinister and aggressive edge.

Driving its core are 2 envelope followers and 4 LFOs with optional tempo sync, which can have their output inverted or combined using up to 4 mixers. The final output of the plugin can also be sculpted with the on board master Equalizer. Subvert features 80 factory presets from sound designers Ivo Ivanov, Nicholas Yochum, Daed and Subjex. From subdued, hostile overtones to deadly seething noisescapes, Subvert will bring an extensive range of vicious effects to your audio arsenal.

Personal impressions:
+ dirty distortion plugin
+ create special distorted sounds also with the factory library
+ random function gives you some suprise sounds
+ simple interface

What I love to see:
- random feature for each channel"

Analogue Solutions Leipzig-s (Loop #116)

Published on Sep 20, 2015 alternatingbitmusic

"Can't stop loving this analog beast. Can't stop sharing the love.
Here's a rather synthpop-like loop that is pretty cool considering there is no layering of audio tracks, it's literally the Leipzig-s's internal sequencer and multi-layered oscillators & modulation that make this such a rich sequence. Completely dry, no effects, with added minimal percussion via the Vermona DRM1-MKIII. Key control via the Akai MPK61."
