Planar 2! Introducing CV Recording and CV Input Modes
Published on Aug 8, 2018 Intellijel
Planar2 was first introduced at SUPERBOOTH18.
"With its smoothly responsive precision joystick, Planar2 facilitates hands-on vector control of two entirely independent sets of outputs (quadrants A-D, and axis X/Y), plus the ability to capture and playback your gestures. Recording your joystick movements enables the creation of organic and complex envelopes, wild and wobbly LFOs, or extended sonic evolutions. It mixes, morphs, routes and pans audio inputs; triggers gates; outputs control voltages and is itself, CV-controllable. Planar2 puts the ‘joy’ back in ‘joystick,’ and the ‘fun’ back in ‘function generator.’ Its multitasking and tactile interface makes it a flexible and unique control device, no matter what your musical genre.
Features
Vector control of two independent sets of outputs: one quadrant-based (outputs A, B, C, D) and one dual-axis based (outputs X and Y).
X/Y Controller: two-axis CV generator sends either unipolar (0V to +10V) or bipolar (-5V to +5V) signal out the X and Y outputs.
Four Quadrant Controller: With nothing connected to inputs A-D, outputs A-D become joystick-controlled individual unipolar (0V to +10V) control voltage sources.
Quad mixing & crossfading: Vector mixing and crossfading of four independent inputs (A, B, C, D) to either individual outputs or the mixed output.
Quad panning: connect a mono source to Input A and use the joystick to pan it to any of the four outputs. Connect a stereo signal to Inputs A and C and pan it forward and backward in quadraphonic space.
Quad routing: Send audio to Input A and patch outputs A-D to four different processors (i.e. VCF, wavefolder, delay, etc.), then use the joystick to dynamically route the signal through the different effects.
Gate Generator: Generate gates either manually (by pressing the Manual Gate button) or automatically whenever the joystick is in motion.
CV Gesture Recorder: Record joystick motions (including gates) to play back either as 1-shot complex function generators or as looped, LFO-like functions. Start time and length can sync to an external trigger, and punch-in/out recording is supported.
External CV Inputs: In addition to its built-in joystick, Planar2 has two CV inputs, which allows external CV control of quadrant outputs A-D and axis outputs X/Y. A mode switch alters how CV affects these outputs, allowing for some advanced automation techniques (such as circular and spinning motions) that would otherwise be difficult to automate."
Blue E-Pro Minisynth Extremely Rare Vintage Analog Synthesizer SN 0158

"Up for sale is a (1) very rare E-Pro Minisynth synthesizer. It's been made in Holland in the 80s in the same period as Synton released their Syrinx synthesizer. Only 25 units are been made and this is one of them! It is a fully CEM based synthesizer and you hear that. It sounds very nice. The synth is been serviced three weeks ago and in good working condition. The service report is part of the sale.
Cosmetically it's in nice condition as well with only some minor scratches, some wear and tear, and the wooden side panels have little signs of use (see photos). Overall it's a great piece of history which deserves a good new home. It's a 220v version with European main plug installed and the serial number is: 0158."

"Includes free Jupiter 8! :o)
Hello classic synth fans. I’m auctioning my amazing Roland Jupiter 8 synth.
This is one of those rare combinations of a solid financial investment, and a really impressive musical instrument. These are already incredibly rare - only 2000 were ever made, and who knows how many of those are still alive today. They’re rare and can’t be imitated, so they’ll only become more valuable over time. But while it’s appreciating in value, you'll be playing one of the all time classics!
The Jupiter 8 has a truly unique sound, no digital imitation comes close to reproducing the sound or the experience of playing these beasts.
I’ll stop gushing about it now, I assume you already have an appreciation for Roland Corporation’s flagship synth.
Serial number 202242, 14-bit D/A converter.
Here’s what is included:
The original Operators’ Manual in mint condition. It even smells kind of nice...
A scanned PDF of the original Service Manual, 60 pages. This features full specifications, parts lists, every technical detail you could want.
A scanned PDF of the original factory patch sheets, 65 pages. This shows you the physical settings that each patch uses, a brief description of each sound, and suggested playing styles.
Kid Nepro’s 64 custom patch presets, as well as other patch presets in the form of WAV files and PDF instructions.
Here’s what is not included:
The onboard battery that holds the patch settings while the JP-8 is off, has gone flat. This is a common issue, and replacement batteries are readily available off the shelf. However replacing it does require a spot of soldering.
It pre-dates MIDI, and has not been retrofitted. I understand that’s a fairly simple exercise though.
This model doesn’t have the DCB module.
It’s missing one of its four rubber stopper feet underneath. I can’t explain that, to be honest.
Delivery cost will be in addition to the buyer’s bid, and will be at the buyer’s expense. The ad says free postage but that is incorrect. Jupiter 8’s are quite substantial, I’ll work with the successful bidder to organise shipping by whatever method is desired.
This is a rare investment opportunity, and it will definitely sell at this price. Don't let it slip through your fingers. I realise it's a lot of cash - just check in with any questions you might have, and I'll do my best to respond quickly.
Good luck!"

"You can never have to many VCA’s is the most common mantra amongst modern modular synth enthusiasts.
The arp 2600 is one of the desired vintage semi modular synths of all time. Perhaps its biggest flaw that prevents it from going full blown modular is “not enough VCA’s”.
Well now you can solve that with this very rare synth module produced in 1975.
This module part of the rare the educational series modular version of the arp 2600. It is a single vca but in the context of the 2600 it is a very powerful. The module runs using one 9vdc rectangular batteries.
The module uses the same mini jack system as the arp 2600. It is basically ready to work as an expander to the 2600 or in conjunction with other modules."
