Vox Jennings Univox Tube Valve Synth Organ w/ Case

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

via this auction

PRODUCT DESCRIPTION: This listing is for a very rare Vox Jennings Univox Tube Synth/ Organ.

ACCESSORIES INCLUDED: This item comes with custom leslie-style-connector cable, and does not include any accessories.

PHYSICAL CONDITION: Very Good - The body has many dings and scrapes from its 50 years being on this earth. All four of the lid latches work flawlessly! Each and every key on the keyboard as well as the dials and tabs are in terrific working order! The electronics however are incomplete and currently not connected. Attached power cable is in great condition as is the included connector cable! Overall condition is very good!

WORKING CONDITION: Not Fully Tested - The keyboard, and the keys, and the tab switches below them all seem to be in terrific woring order. However, the electronics and wiring are not fully intact so this Univox could not be fully tested. But each function or feature on this thing, such as the keys themselves, all look to be in great shape. Servicing this vintage unit would turn it to a gem!

UNPACKAGED WEIGHT: 34 lbs.

UNPACKAGED DIMENSIONS: 12" x 23" x 13.5"

ELKA 505 SOLIST Vintage (1978) Mono Synth with 'MOOG' Filter

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

via this auction

"This is a combination preset/variable synth. It has 11 preset sounds with a wide mix of tones but when you switch on the 'Variations' button you can alter the preset sound with a variety of sound modifiers, including...

Octave Down
Bend
Vibrato
Filter
VCF
VCA

This combination of differing preset tones and modifer controls provides a surprisingly wide array of sounds. Of course, this synth is aimed squarely at melody duties and is not particularly good for fx or weird synth noises. However, as a melodic synth it has character and real power. This is probably largely due to the Moog type ladder filter in this synth, copied from the one used in the Minimoog (later Elka keyboards did not feature this filter as Moog served notice on Elka to cease and desist copying their tech!)"

ARTURIA MICROBRUTE + MAKE NOISE O-COAST // synths playing Bach Prelude D major // 2

Published on Jun 9, 2018 LESINDES

2nd ODD COUPLE:
ARTURIA MICROBRUTE // MAKE NOISE O-COAST
My challenge here was to tweak a proper sound for the BACH Prelude D major, BWV 850.
So different machines lead to different ideas -- so please don't look
for too much similarities!
Since (nearly) all of them are pure mono synths
all recordings are done in 2 takes. I filmed
the melody part.

Today a follow-up demo of my Uniox Minikorg w/ a Pitch CV + Gate mod controlled

by the Arturia Beatstep, this time sans the annoying percussion. This synth is

one big continuous sweet spot! Some delay by Timefactor, a touch of Big Sky

reverb, recorded directly via Mackie mixer to a Tascam DR-05. Press play, kick"
