"It was recently brought in for cleaning and calibration to Jim Nelson of Audio Operations. Jim is widely known in Toronto as one of the premiere synth technicians in the region and worked for many years as the head service technician for Roland Canada. This unit came in and back with a clean bill of health: The pots and faders do not exhibit any pops or crackles and it is good working order.

Cosmetically, it is in good condition showing obvious signs of wear on the tolex and in the area near the mod lever. It does not include the wooden case top."

"The name Trilogy of course (in the same vein were, for example, the Korg Trident, the ARP Omni 1/2, and the Moog Opus 3) comes from the fact that this instrument features three sections: Organ, Strings, and Synthesizer.
These 'Multi-Instrument Keyboards', as they were called at the time, were very popular among keyboardists - because back in the early 80s, "proper synthesizers" like the Prophet-5, Oberheim OB-X or Jupiter-8 were much more expensive.

The String section in particular sounds great.. very retro, and very similar to the classic ARP String Ensemble (Solina).

The Synthesizer section is big, brassy, and typically 80s-sounding. In all, this is an impressive (not only visually - it's very large and heavy) synthesizer, capable of vintage sounds unavailable anywhere else."

The Complete DX7II by Howard Massey with Flexi-Discs

"This is without a doubt the best and most thorough book ever written on how to program and work with the Yamaha DX7II series synthesizer. A lot of the information here is applicable to all FM synths, but it was written specifically for the DX7II, and includes some things not included in the original DX7.

The particular book still has the three included “sound sheets” with all the audio examples. These plastic 33 1/3 rpm records have never been played and are in perfect condition and still attached to the book (see photos).

I am the original owner of this book. I bought it in 1987 when I got my DX7IID. I read it thoroughly in the first year and it has been on my bookshelf or in storage, untouched, ever since. There are exactly 14 pages where I highlighted some information (see photo examples), but other than that this book is in excellent condition.

What with the recently resegence in interest in FM synthesis, this book is still relevent and invaluable."

Roland JP8000 Patches

Roland JP8000 (Patches Part 1)

Published on Aug 15, 2016 3rdStoreyChemist

"A demonstration of the Patch presets included with the JP8000 synthesiser.

The synth was recorded direct with no further processing except for normalisation."

Some glitches in this one unfortunately. Not sure if it's the recording, the synth and if the synth, the effects.

Update:

The 1.3 update pushed me into just having to buy the Circuit. I'm glad I did! The workflow is very intuitive and it sounds really good. There is massive potential in this little box."
