"Very hard to find unit , with a great sound

The Syntrack represents an ideal combination of analogue and digital technology: the legendary MOOG filter sound supplemented by a Wave Table oscillator. The Wave Table oscillator offers a substantially greater range of sounds than the customary analogue oscillators, together with absolute tuning stability. The typical output signals of analogue oscillators (saw-tooth, square wave, ...) can, of course, also be generated.

Although analogue technology is expensive today, we have given the "old" technology preference over the new. The distorter, which is also produced in analogue technology, gives the sound the necessary "bite". Any other signal which is looped in at the external audio input can also be filtered and distorted.

The Syntrack´s complete MIDI control system allows you to control every parameter via your sequencer software. This means you can increase the number of programmes for the instrument by computer and alter parameters in real time.

The Syntrack combines a Digital Wavetable Oscillator with an Analogue Filter (Cascade Filter). The Filter Output passes through the Analogue Distorter which shapes your Sound to be powerful and rough. The Syntrack offers 99 Programs and easy programming because each Parameter has a Pot. Every Operation on the Knobs will cause a Controller to be send to MIDI Out. And each Parameter listens to its Controller on MIDI In. The Lamps above the Knobs displays a MIDI controller remote of the pots or a setting of this parameter by the program. The Wavetable can be expanded by a second chip. The Syntrack also offers an external audio input."

Moog Prodigy vintage synthesizer

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

via this auction

"Vintage Moog Prodigy in excellent working condition. Has exactly two flaws, neither of which ever bothered me enough to take it in for repairs:

1. At some point, the modulation rate knob got snapped off. It’s still entirely possible to change the rate; you just have to twist the part that’s still there. (See the picture.)

2. The C key at the far right of the keyboard is stuck—it won’t go down. I think the wooden chassis must have swollen enough over the years to be pressing against it too tightly, or maybe the keybed ended up just a millimeter too far to the right in a prior shipment or repair.

Otherwise it’s just an excellent unit. The knobs and switches do what they’re supposed to and the oscillators are nice and stable."

Novation SL MKIII Studio Performance -CALC- “Pez River”

Published on Oct 11, 2018 -CALC-

"Here's a little ditty composed and performed on the powerful Novation SL MKIII sequencer/Controller keyboard.
The SL is controlling an ARP 2600, Juno 106, Korg Poly61 M (running through a DIY phaser Mmmmm), SH101 + 0Coast and Yamaha Reface CP alongside the Elektron Octatrack and OTO Boum. Leploop is also connected to clock from the SL MKIII.

Theres 3 drum tracks and a couple of nice Spitfire audio Labs (free plug-ins) providing Strings and Charanga guitar sounds.

It a true hybrid Hardware/Computer combo, Ableton Live is clocking everything through the SL and all the musical elements (bar Ableton's Strings and Charanga guitar parts) are being sequenced by the SL MKIII directly.
My favourite bit is towards the Middle when the Peak has a nice rhythmic Bass line on a monster patch. I called the patch Pez River for some reason and so that's the name of the track.

I have to say that I have fallen completely in love with the SL MKIII workflow, the ability to sequence everything directly from a flagship keyboard is incredible and genuinely music feels so much easier to write now somehow!"

Buchla Easel + TB03 + TR09 Glitched out by Octatrack

Published on Oct 11, 2018 Honeysmack

"Buchla Easel, TB03 and TR09 live sampled and all glitched out and randomized by the Octatrack.

Single take no post, no edits. All effects are from the Octatrack, with some reverb from the TB03.

Modular synth not in use.

ER9Solina - Chiptune Syntie Song - 10/2018

Published on Oct 11, 2018 Stereoping

"No special piece of gear demo-ed this time. Just a composition and arrangement excercise in FL Studio which imho finally came out quite nice.

Drums from a vintage midified Vermona ER-9 Drumbox, theme played by Dreadbox Nxy. Solina sound (well, kind of) from MI Ambika through the Boehm Phasing Rotor bucked brigade chorus. Bass from Waldorf Pulse. Then the Micromonsta bringing in some chiptune action with 32th notes defining the harmonic scales. Finally the Korg Polysix contributing some rock organ riffs. At the end the DEP-5's (feeded with Ambika strings) reverb time is cranked to 'endless' as well as the Nyx's reverb time - both add up in a beautiful final drone.

Video shows life footage, piano-roll shoots and some supermario screencast footage corresponding to the current musical mood. Hope you like it :-)"

E-MU Systems Emulator II

via this auction

"E-Mu Systems Emulator II Classic Vintage Analog Filter Sampling Synthesizer in Mint condition. This Emulator II comes with a library of about 50 vintage floppy disks containing many of the classic sounds this amazing sampler is known for. The synth is in excellent condition both cosmetically and functionally and has been tested and everything seems to be working fine. The front decal sticker is a bit cracked, but that is to be expected for a synthesizer over 30 years old. However all the words are still legible and I have never had any problems reading them. However I have included a reproduction sticker worth about $70 for the front panel if you want to replace the original sicker. Also the AC adaptor is included. There are some small scuffs but no cracks..."

OBERHEIM Four Voice / 4 Voice SEM - Analog Synthesizer 【SYNTH DEMO】

Published on Oct 11, 2018 synth4ever

"Oberheim Four Voice analog synthesizer demo. Playing sample & hold sounds on vintage Four Voice / 4 Voice SEM analog synth from Oberheim.

The Oberheim Four Voice a 4-voice SEM polyphonic analog synthesizer from Oberheim which was released in the mid to late 1970s. The Oberheim Four Voice was Oberheim's largest synth at the time, and features discrete analog circuitry including 8 VCOs (2 per voice), LFOs, a LPF/HPF/Notch filter, 2 ADR envelopes and 49 keys.

The Oberheim 4 Voice has a huge analog sound and is essentially four monophonic Oberheim SEM synths connected together for four voices of polyphony, with each SEM unit having its own filter and envelopes. It can also be upgraded to an Oberheim Eight Voice by adding 4 additional Oberheim SEM modules.

This Oberheim Four Voice synthesizer demo was filmed at the Vintage Synthesizer Museum in Oakland, CA."
