"This has had a rebuilt power supply, new key bushings, polished key contacts, and the voice cards had fresh capacitors and tuning calibration pots installed. Auto tune passes all voices and it's tuning is stable.The power supply is rebuild more robust than stock so you can operate the synth safely and cooler over a long duration. It's voices are panned so that every other one comes out of each side for a stereo panning fun which can be changed via trimpots on the voice card boards. That being said, the OBXA is a special type of synth that needs the right owner. One who is not a stranger to vintage synths and their insides. You'll probably need to get inside every now and then for some tweaking as the seasons change or when you move the synth around so if you're afraid of the inside of vintage synths, the OBXa is just not your synth and I recommend you try the new ob6."

Sound processed thru a Mutable Instruments Rings module, parameters bent with a Koma, played from a Radio Music.

It's odd that it starts speaking Alvin Lucier's brilliant 'I Am Sitting In A Room.'"

Roland TR-8, TB-3, TR-505, + Circuit & Volca Acid Techno Jam


Published on Sep 2, 2016 anode8

"Here's another session featuring the Roland TR-505, TR-8 & TB-3, along with the Korg Volca Bass & Keys, and Novation Circuit. This was mostly a test of the distortion pedal (Boss DS-1 Clone) on the TB-3. All run through the Mackie ProFX12 mixer and recorded into Logic Pro, with some compression and limiting added. This is by no means a full demo of any of these machines, just me fooling around on some gear that I like to have fun with. If you like it too, then please follow me! Thanks for checking it out."

"The absolutely HUGE SOUNDING true ANALOG MFB 522 IN MINT CONDITION. Based on the 808 circuit it sounds like a flash back in time to the 1980s ..."

Synthrotek Super Power


Published on Sep 2, 2016 synthrotek

"Synthrotek’s Super Power gives you loads of power and is skiffable at just 46mm deep! Designed with safety in mind, Super Power has polarity protection and regulators with short circuit, overheating, and over current protection.

Why make a totally new power module? First and foremost, the Deluxe Power Module was a tough build. DIY has always been at the heart of what we do, so we re-oriented the board so that it is simpler to build, and more importantly, simpler to troubleshoot. We also would occasionally have a metal switch break when shipping a Eurorack case, so we switched to a hardy plastic jack.

The new circuit allows Super Power to come in three different power configurations. Super Power Red (with red LEDs) will power a single row of 84 or 104HP, Super Power Green will power two rows of 104HP, and Super Power Blue will power three to four rows of 104HP.

Features:

Multiple power options to fit your needs and budget: - RED: Power one row of 84 or 104HP.* Power output: +12V @ 3A, -12V @ 2.5A, +5V @ 1.5A - GREEN: Power two rows of 104HP.* Power output: +12V @ 3A, -12V @ 1.3A, +5V @ 1.5A - BLUE: Power three to four rows of 104HP.* Power output: +12V @ 3A, -12V @ 2.5A, +5V @ 1.5A
- Advanced low-noise, fully-regulated voltage converters on each rail
- Over-current protection: shuts off each power rail automatically if modules use too much current on that rail
- Two 16-Pin Eurorack power connectors, keyed for safety
- Molex quick-release connector for easy install of Synthrotek Noise Filtering Distribution Boards
- USB jack for powering an iPhone, Beat Step Pro, etc.
- Input Voltage Range: 16 to 19 volts DC
- Requires 16-9V power brick, DC Input Jack size: 2.1mm
- Module Width: 4HP
- Module Depth: 46mm"

"Hey Guys,

This video is of a Memorymoog I have been rebuilding for Corey Schenck, it was originally Robert Berry's Memorymoog that he toured with in the band, '3' (Emerson Berry and Palmer).

Very honored to have the privilege to get this beast up and going again for its new life with Corey.

Special thanks to both Robert and Corey for the support and to all of you that watch my videos, this is what it is all about!!!

Rock on and take care,
Jareth"

Arturia Keystep - Playing with the Step Sequencer


Published on Sep 2, 2016 ProckGnosis

"Just a bit of playing around with the step sequencer on the Arturia Keystep MIDI Controller, using it to sequence a Yamaha CS5 analog mono synth.

Really had 3 goals with this:
1. Playing with the Keystep sequencer
2. Testing the Waldorf Pulse 2 for translating MIDI to CV
3. Sequencing an old mono, analog synth that had no MIDI

The Keystep is a great piece of hardware at a decent price (around $115-120), with velocity and aftertouch sensitive keys, an arpeggiator, and a step sequencer. Can store up to eight, 64-step sequences. MIDI in/out and CV and gate outs for controlling analog equipment.

The Keystep has CV and gate out, but the Yamaha CS5 doesn't use the normal, Moogish-volt-per-octave standard, so I had to use the Waldorf Pulse 2 to translate the midi from the Keystep to the Hertz-per-volt CV standard older Yamaha synths frequently used."
