Vinicius Brazil - Som Analógico X Som Digital

Vinicius Brazil of vBrazil Systems
"Encomendei um sistema modular com o Vinicius Brazil e fiquei na maior ansiedade para ter logo o "bicho" aqui no estúdio.
Assim que ficou pronto fui buscar juntamente com meu parceiro Danny Olliiver
Daí pensamos. Porque não uma palestra particular do próprio mestre pra gente?
Afinal todo conhecimento é bem vindo, ainda mais se tratando de áudio e suas relações, não é verdade?
Daí surgiu a ideia de gravar algumas explicações a respeito dos módulos que o próprio BRAZIL desenvolve.
Uma ótima oportunidade para produtores que estão começando a usar sons analógicos, além do que é um inventor BRASILEIRO com uma vasta experiência que coloca marcas famosas no bolso.
O mini curso vai estar na íntegra logo mais no meu site.

Googlish:
"I ordered a modular system with Vinicius Brazil and was most anxious to soon have the" bug "in the studio.
Once it was ready I went to get along with my partner Danny Olliiver
Hence we think. Why not a private lecture the master himself for us?
After all knowledge is welcome, especially when it comes to audio and relationships, is not it?
Hence the idea to record some explanations about the modules that own BRAZIL develops.
A great opportunity for producers who are starting to use analog sounds, beyond what is a Brazilian inventor with extensive experience that puts famous brands in the pocket.
The mini course will be in full soon on my website.

Rare (Working) Crumar DS-2 Analog Synth (Italian 70s Synth) SN 551

via this auction
"The Crumar DS-2 (as in “digital synthesizer # 2”) is an Italian analog/digital hybrid synth built in the late 1970s. A few sources and synth blogs give 1977/78 as the starting year of production. Only a few hundred (some sources say around 700) were made; this one has a serial number of 551.
The takeaway = this is a rare, fat-sounding, heavy-ass 1970s synth that features two LFOs with really unique shapes, two digitally controlled oscillators (hence the “D” in DS-2), a poly section, pink and white noise…all of this, packed in a road case. The DS-2 is a classic-sounding beast, and one of the few synths that has a poly section you can play alongside a 2 oscillator mono section. The architecture of this synth draws comparisons to Moogs and Arps, but it's honestly more quirky (and therefore perhaps more limited in its scope, but also more unique)."

Fully Functional Hammond Novachord For Sale
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
This one in via MATRIXSYNTH reader J. Louise. Details and contact info follow.
"Hammond Novachord made in 1939. Considered by many to be the first synthesizer commercially available. Bob Moog was five years old when this came out. I believe there are less than ten of these working in the world. It has an unmistakable, and instantly recognizable sound which was featured in movies such as "Gone With The Wind", "The Twilight Zone", "The Ten Commandments", "The Outer Limits" and even "Hawaii Five-O".
The Novachord has full 72 note polyphony, envelope control, two presets which mechanically operate the front panel controls, and a six channel vibrato making for rich chords as each note in a triad has its own vibrato of a slightly different speed, emulating the sound of real string players. It has a built in amplifier and two 12" speakers. Completely vacuum tube operation, no solid state anything. The tubes are mostly originals as they run at conservative heater voltages for long life.
It took me over three years and lots of searching and talking with people to find this instrument. This particular instrument originated in Detroit, Michigan where it was used for the background music of radio dramas in the 1940s. It was then stored in the transmitter room at the station where all the cool old stuff like this got tossed aside when the next great thing came out. I acquired it in 2005 from the station engineer.
This instrument has been fully, painstakingly restored to working condition using modern components that should last a long time. It took over 300 hours of skilled labor and a shop full of test equipment and tools to bring this back to life.
The speakers are original Jensen A12 field coils and have been re-coned. The amplifier power tubes are new Sovtek 2A3s, and some tubes in the power supply have been replaced with new old stock tubes of high quality.
The instrument has been stripped and refinished in the same color it was originally but it is a satin texture and not a professional high gloss lacquer finish. It looks great in person and I get a lot of compliments on the finish. The nameplate area above the keyboard has not been refinished to preserve the original Hammond logo above the keys.
Included are the original service manual, original playing guide, lots of original Sylvania green leaf spare tubes which were from another Novachord so they are period correct, and a magazine ad from 1940 for the Novachord.
I will gladly spend time with any serious buyers to go over the technical details of the restoration, show you how it works, and answer any questions you may have about it.
I can be contacted at jessie@newoldsounds.com."
