"This Studio Electronics ATC-1 is an amazing synth hands down. This item was originally sold with one filter cartridge and the option to buy additional cartridges that emulate other popular synths. Included with this item is a separate chassis that allows access to all four cartridges AND all four cartridges will be included as well. THIS IS IN PERFECT CONDITION!!!
You will receive:
ATC-1 Synth
Expansion Chassis
TB-303 Cartridge
ARP 2600 Cartridge
SEM Cartridge
MiniMoog Cartridge
Power Cord
This is a complete package that I have never seen sold before. The cartridges alone can fetch up to $250 a piece.
"Three-module mini jam featuring Monome Walk (with two footswitches), Mutable Instruments Rings (one footswitch to Strum input), and 4MS Dual Looping Delay (one footswitch to Ping input). Run into a Mackie mixer with an Eventide Space reverb pedal on the effects send."
We experienced an incredible evolution of speech synthesis over the last decades - the voice used in this track was artificially generated by an online text to speech tool, sampled by the E-MU E6400 Ultra and was then transformed by the vocoder of the Access Virus C. You can hear the original synthesized voice at the end of the track.
Big thanks to my YouTube friend "oscillator", who sent me his great Kurzweil K2000 patches, the patch starting at 03:05 is pure Kurzweil bliss from his patch bank! He also helped me to upgrade my old K2000 to modern standards. It is a fantastic synth!
Here is his channel: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCz8o...
Gear used (in order of appearance):
00:00 Kurzweil K2000 piano (a classic)
00:13 Moog Little Phatty Bassline through Polivoks DIY VCF
00:26 Elektron Machinedrum Drums
00:40 Mutable Instruments Anushri Chip Arpeggio
01:13 MFB Dominion I - dirty bassline :-)
01:15 Dave Smith Evolver - growling, evolving bassline
01:39 Vocoder voice (E-MU 6400 Ultra - Access Virus C Vocoder)
02:05 MFB Dominion I - lead in paraphonic mode
03:05 Kurzweil K2000 "Solo" - Patch from oscillator, THANKS! :-)
04:17 Alesis Andromeda - arpeggiated happy poly string
FX: Strymon Timeline and BigSky, DIY Polivoks VCF
All was sequenced live using the fantastic MIDIbox Sequencer (v4), the synth outputs went directly into a 16-channel Mackie 1604 for analog mixing - the master output of the mixer was captured using a Tascam DR-100 wave recoder - no DAW was abused during recording, only slight audio compression was added during video editing.
Hope you enjoyed it and thanks for watching and listening!

"Here's the awesome Akemie's Castle from ALM Busy Circuits. It's a 4 operator FM oscillator power house! Based on the original NOS Yamaha FM chips you've got different operator algorithms all four operator controls exposed and loads of hands (or CV heavy) manipulation. This patch is just a generative noise jam but you get a good idea of the range of tones it can create in that field."
Update: some key points from the video captured by Soviet Space Child and a couple of feature suggestions:
1) the digital processing section can be put pre or post analog filter, this is huge for me.
2) the analog filters are lowpass only.
3) the oscillators are freely routable between the analog filters, digital processing section, or can bypass them all together and go straight to the VCA. This adds a lot of flexibility to the synth, in that a single patch effectively becomes a 3 timbre synthesizer, with each oscillator comprising of its own timbre. In theory, one oscillator can go to the analog filters, another can go to the digital processing section, a third can go straight to the amp section. This, combined with the various oscillator types, makes the Quantum an incredibly flexible synthesizer. Now, with all that taken into consideration, add the split/layering mode and you have yourself a party.
4) FM is not yet decided upon, bummer. Here's hoping for linear FM between the oscillators.
5) You can analyze audio files and convert them into wavetables (!!!)
5) 40(!!!) modulation slots.
Suggestions:
1) Addition of linear FM
2) Internal resampling for the wavetable and granular/sample oscillators would be great.
"::| BEST HEARD WITH A GOOD PAIR OF HEADPHONES |::
A live modular synth jam; a variation of the previous video, with a bit of a different feel... no external effects, overdubs or multi-tracking, just what you see on the screen performed in one live take."
"Just enjoyed the sound I made (I can't save any of my patches) - so I thought I'd make a video of it. This is such a strange synthesizer. Sounds amazing though, being able to create your own waveforms is very interesting (albeit - usually ends in bad sounds). This is a waveform I made using the drawing feature.
"Exploring some of the interesting features of the new PyraOS 1.9 beta.
Now that the Euclidean Mode can accept chords, and with the new Master Transpose track, we can create rhythm guitar style strumming patterns. Add a few Midi FX for variations, and we have the Strumming Pyramids!"
