"This is an amazing example of the Rhodes Chroma Polaris. It's in excellent condition with freshly replaced membrane panels purchased from Paul Derocco.

There is one missing screw in the back of the case, and a few light scuffs, but over all it looks factory fresh. It includes a heavy duty flight case that I will ship it in, along with a the original manuals (user manual pages are falling out, but there) , both original Chroma branded foot pedals, a Radio shack computer tape deck with the proper din cable for connecting it to the chroma and 3 tapes of patches including the original factory patch tape. Also included is a folder of newsletters from the original user group that the original owner kept from the 80s."

Vintage Moog The Rogue 342A Analog Synth SN 4394

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

via this auction

"For a keyboard released in 1981- this thing is in EXCELLENT condition... there's really one like scratch not even to the metal on the bottom- but otherwise the top, sides, back and screen printing are in EXCELLENT condition- no wear, chips/dings/scratches nothing worth mentioning. For it's age it's in remarkable condition - the finest example to maybe hit the used market.

It was recently serviced/looked over- and works perfect. I'm not a fan of the 'noise' setting and It's kind of a pain to dial in- but if you look up the manual online it has tons of great settings to get all sorts of synth stuff- from thriller bass to flutes and electric guitars."

Dave Smith Instruments Featured Artist - Robert Rich

You can find a new Dave Smith Instruments artist interview, with Robert Rich here.

"With over 40 albums spanning four decades, Robert Rich has helped define ambient music. Robert began building his own analog modular synthesizers in 1976, when he was 13, and later studied computer music at Stanford’s CCRMA while researching lucid dreaming. Robert has performed worldwide, and since 1982, his all-night Sleep Concerts have become legendary. His 15-hour, Blu-ray Perpetual maintains this tradition. Robert’s sound design graces many films and preset libraries, and as a mastering engineer he has applied his ear to hundreds of albums. His latest release, Vestiges, is available on Bandcamp, CDBaby, and robertrich.com."

Published on Jun 26, 2017 Synth Chaser

http://www.synthchaser.com

"The greatest synth ever, the ARP 2600, is beating the heat in the Synthchaser workshop and getting a little love and minor TLC. I replace a broken slider and identify and replace some bad connectors that were causing the keyboard control voltage to glitch or be dropped.

Parts used in this video are available at my website. I also repair and restore ARPs and other vintage synths for customers around the world."
