Akai AX73 6 Voice Analog Synthesizer and Midi Controller

via this auction

"Condition is very good, very few scratches/marks on the surface. All functions tested and are in working order.

-Thoroughly cleaned for resale.

-A few patches have been overwritten by the original owner. Most are in a different order than they appear in the manual. All are very cool sounding! Original owner was a trekkie - one is named "Dr. Spock" and another "Klyng". You can overwrite easily with your own patches also.

-It is both a six voice analog synthesizer and a midi controller. Useful in a contemporary set-up and fun to play with in achieving deep and raw vintage sounds! Seriously, it has some punch to it!

-All keys are functioning and have velocity.

-Second to last key on the right has been replaced. It was like this when I bought it. When I was cleaning the connectors I noticed there was a piece of plastic taped to the underlying structure to make it level with the other keys. I re-taped it securely and thoroughly wrapped the tape around the underlying structure with minimal contact. Should last for a very long time."

Rare Latronic Notron MK2 Midi Sequencer

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

From Wikipedia:

"The Notron is a British-designed MIDI step sequencer used by Björk, Howie B etc. Produced in two models, the Mark 1 was available between 1996 and May 1998. The Mark 2 was a slim blue box produced until about 2001. About 100 Mark 1 units were sold and a similar number of Mark 2s. The Notron is no longer produced.

It was designed by and developed by Gerard Campbell and the software was written by Dave Spowage of Concourse Systems (UK). The original model bodywork was designed by Martyn Seiles. It was sold under the company name Latronic.

In 1999 it won a Millennium Award from the Design Council and was exhibited at the Millennium Dome during 2000. For some time the Notron was on display in the London Science Museum.

Only about 150 Notrons were made, and production on them has been discontinued. So, already, it is a collectible instrument and will surely increase in value as time passes...

It does different reset points for each sequence, can output 4 different sequences, It does LFO shapes, weird stuttering things, step length stuff, pitch bend and mod wheel macros, chords on steps, some time-stretching emulation sort of tricks, delays, strums and reversals. Some of the other neat stuff was being able to group changes across multiple steps, and all of it in real time. A very cool machine!"

Hurrah for Notron!

Are The Tigers Still Free?

Published on May 16, 2016 Trübüla

Spotted this one on discchord.

"One of my favorite Roger Waters' song is "When The Tiger Broke Free", maybe because I've lost my grandpa in Russia during the WWII. So yesterday I was playing around with the new Model 15 App by Moog on the WTTBF's theme and this is what is happened.

Lead by Moog Model 15 App (using Animoog keyboard)

Buchla Easel & Kinetic Protean

Published on May 16, 2016 PaulLawlerMusic

"The Easel is being driven by 2 gate sources from the Euro system via 2 CVGT1 modules. The Protean is the main evolving drone, and this is being modulated in the Spectral Multiband Resonator and using the reverb from Clouds."
