"Crumar/Chase Bit One - vintage 6 voice analogue synth with MIDI

Quirky 80s DCO analogue from the same designer as the superlative Elka Synthex.

Has dedicated detune and noise sliders, with keyboard aftertouch, split and unison modes (very fat!!).
Features MIDI In/Out and an analogue trigger input!

All fully working. Built like a tank, but with some blemishes on the case.
Some slightly worn legending. Value buttons occasionally require a harder press, but all working."

DRM1 MKIII paper cut intro

Published on Jan 25, 2016 vermonagear

"We were looking for a nice way to picture our DRM1 MKIII analogue drum synthesizer used as a percussive sound bank, rather then a drum machine played using a 16 step sequencer. We felt it was to boring to show how someone selects sounds, records them and creates rythmical/musical patterns thereof. Then we fell over the good old paper cut. This video is only the result of our studies with this technic. The first serious clip will be released soon."

Key Contacts for Korg, Oberheim, Moog, Sequential, Akai, and Others

via LA Synth Co:

"NEW Replacement key contacts for Matsushita type keybeds with rubber membrane-style key contacts.

If your keys are hard to trigger or are double-triggering or are just dead, this might be what you need .

Keys feel quick and strident again. You've never felt the keys feel this responsive!

Compatible with
Korg Polysix, Monopoly, Poly 61, Poly 800
Moog Memory Moog
Oberheim OB-8 (later non-Pratt Read)
Sequential Prophet 600, Six Trak (and some others TBD)

No need for messy paint that is inconsistent and VERY time consuming and frustrating to install. With our new contacts, old ones come out, new ones go in and you're ready to go!"
