"Vintage 1960's Rheem Kee Bass combo organ/bass synth. This is an awesoe sounding bass keyboard that is in great condition. Super smooth with huge low end thanks to the "Bass Boost" slider. Can get gritty with the built in Fuzz. Works great with the exception of the upper position of the Sustain and Percussion mode switch. We have another one of these that works perfectly, and honestly, there isn't much of a difference between the two settings anyway. Sounds great as is or would likely be a pretty simple fix. This is really one of my favorite bass keyboards and the tone sits perfectly in any track. Plus, it's about the coolest looking keyboard I've ever seen."

"Recorded at 2am. Couldn’t sleep. My mind swimming in recent news events. A world desensitised to fascism, terrorism and tyranny, is not the one I imagined my children growing up in."
Same here. If you hang out with racists you support racists.
"In the first patch, the Qu-Bit Pulsar acts as a simple gate sequencer with some additional tricks. Each output drives a different element of the patch: a bass sequence and hat sound, a kick, a cowbell/rimshot sound, and a simple melodic sequence. Gradually unmuting the sequences channel by channel, a polyrhythmic groove is revealed. Turning on "gravity" for the melodic channel creates spinning, off-kilter melodic variations at literally the push of a button.
In the second patch, the Pulsar's four channels provide timing information for four pitches from the QuBit Chord module. Each channel runs at an independent clock rate, made visible with the LED ring around the Pulsar's primary encoder. Turning on "Gravity" from the Global Page activates a burst-like response from all channels, creating several cascading, phasing blips that form their own minimalist rhythmic structures and melodies. Pressing the length encoder from the Global page stops all channels once they have completed their respective cycles.
The third patch is another "gravity"-laden patch, this time featuring percussive sounds: a hat, snare, and kick. In this patch, the kick and snare trigger channels are set to automatically loop, but the hat channel is only triggered via the external burst function. By setting up the unutilized channel at a long clock division and patching it into the module's own burst input, the hat channel is made to trigger a string of pulses only periodically, rather than on a constant loop. "Gravity" is again engaged from the Global Page, making for whiplash-inducing accelerations and sudden stops from individual channels shifting in and out of sync with one another.
