Kawai SX240 Synthesizer with Tauntek OS & Custom Wood Side Panels

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

"These are rare in the States, and more rare in fully functional condition with the Tauntek OS installed! Warm, silky SSM2040 filters...yum

Mods to stock:
I handcrafted the wood sides from heavy, nice 3/4" Japanese white oak
It has Tauntek upgrade (see Sean Obers YouTube demo) allowing for CC paramater control. So you're no longer limited to one-at-a-time editing!
A local tech added coin battery holder with rechargable LIR2032 coin cell, so replacement requires NO SOLDERING!
Also removed a ding in the back by the power cord, otherwise this synth is super-clean inside. One red LED is out (Coarse, otherwise Excellent overall ccosmetics"

"This actual keyboard was used by Annette Peacock when she performed at a conservatory in Seattle! She requested a Roland D50 and they found one for her, and that's where I got it from. These sounds were also used by Enya, Brian Eno, Vangelis, Angelo Badalementi for the Twin Peaks soundtrack, The Cure, etc."

Sunfade - Waldorf Blofeld

Published on Dec 1, 2018 100 Things I Do

"A quick Atmospheric noodle with the Waldorf Blofeld. Like many I am waiting to get a Waldorf Quantum but the demand continues to outstrip supply. Until this is resolved (or my lucky number comes up) its a good time to continue exploring the Blofeld. There is nothing like moving wavetables for atmospheric sounds :D"

Published on Dec 1, 2018 Let's Listen

"A simple demo of the Doepfer A-120 VCF1 Low Pass Filter module. No talking, just listening.

Note that the envelope used as a CV source has its attack and decay modulated via LFOs, so as to give an idea of slow and fast attack and decays."
