"A complete kit of components and a PCB, with component overlay.
Easy to build, should take about 40 minutes (by medium experienced tecs!)

The long gold PCB pins are not supplied - but you can use 1mm guage wire to mount the PCB, with no problems.

Please note: The VCA takes a small amout of setting up, using the trimmers on the ARP2600 unit. If these trimmers are not set correctly distortion can occur.

Thanks for looking in, and please see our other listings for ARP synth spares!"

Test CRUMAR BIT99 Synthesizer - Artwork Limited Edition

Published on Feb 3, 2019 Buda Music

"The Bit 99 was offered by Crumar in 1985.

It is a 6 voice polyphonic analog synths with 2 DCO's
on board and CEM3328 Filters.

The instrument featured 3+3 notes in layer mode and
99 patch memories and also has MIDI IN/OUT.

Note: Read presets SySex files by MIDI IN.

The Bit 99 is one of the first synthesizers from which traditional knobs and sliders have been banned.

The edit method is easy to understand.

The Bit 99 can produce a wide variety of sounds but bass sounds are the best.

With a polyphony of three notes, instead of six normally, you can have two sounds layered!

Possibilities are almost unlimited and if the 99 patches are not enough you can save the data to tape and load it when you want!

This synth was used by 808 State but the synth sounds a lot like Orbital's "In-sides" album.

SPECIFICATIONS
Polyphony - 6 voices
Oscillators - 2 DCOs per voice
LFO - 2 LFOs assignable to VCA, VCF, DCO1, DCO2
Filter - VCF: cutoff, resonance, tracking, invert (inverts VCF values), ADSR
VCA - ADSR
Keyboard - 61 full size keys with sensibility control, semi weighted
Memory - 99 patches (75 single programs and from 76 to 99 for "split" or "double" modes)

(The CRUMAR BIT99 synthesizer of this video is a unique piece of hand-painted artwork)"

"Simone Fabbri from Frap Tools gave this wonderful workshop on his mighty Fumana filter bank module in 2018. We also learn about the history of the company, how it all started and where the ideas for their modules came from. From an early modular-case-prototype to the complex filterbank Fumana - Frap Tools has established itself as a high quality modular brand a short time."

XAOC Devices - Workshop at SchneidersLaden

Published on Feb 4, 2019 SchneidersLaden

"Maciek, Marcin and Tomek from Xaoc Devices were so kind to explain their more sophisticated modules to us. What initially looks like a lecture at university, is actually a quick and very good explanation of the huge and often overlooked possibilities of their Drezno and Lipsk modules. Those two go to the heart of digital-to-analog conversion (and the other way round) and are therefore perfect examples of what makes modular synthesizers interesting in the first place! You can go as deep into the shaping of sounds and modulations as possible! At the end of the workshop they also talked about their first VCO module - Odessa, an additive oscillator with great potential.

Here is a little time-table for you - so you can jump to the bits that you want to see:
