Synth Stuff Ep. 55 - Korg Radias
Published on May 5, 2019 tritonrecordings
"The Radias was released a couple years after I discovered my interest in synths and I remember being blown away in the store just by the way this thing looked. It's a bit unusual, but it just looks bad ass. Anyway, lots of people want to compare this to the MS2000 and I would say this definitely has a more processed and modern (by 2006 standards) sound. It reeks of that over-polished, Japanese Korg sound. Every synth collection should have a VA and this one is definitely worth checking out or just having one to make your rack look cool. Also check out the Korg R3 - same sound engine in a smaller package."
Roland MKS-30 Analog Synth with PG200 - Restored Chips

"Roland MKS30 Analog Synth module with the PG200 Controller.
All of the voice chips were overhauled to ensure proper sound and use so no worries there. Comes with the proper cable for the controller and also included are the rack ears with screws to attack to the module (pictured in bubble wrap). Also, the internal battery was replaced. This classic synth is ready for many years of use. Several custom patches are loaded on many banks and there are a few banks with initialized setting so that you can create and store your own.
The sound of the MKS30 is the same as the JX3p and some will say (myself included) that the sound is more versatile and more elegant than that of the Juno106, although its surely in the same sonic family as the juno 106 and juno 60."

"Made under licence from ARP- the lo pass VCF is virtually identical in design & sound to the infamous ARP 2600 4012 transistor ladder VCF (the Moog copy!). Twin Osc. both with subsonic capabilities. FM cross modulation (Osc 1 into Osc 2) & ring modulation. White/Pink noise. LFO with vari-shape & Sample & Hold. Two ADSR envelopes. Great filter section with 24db Low pass with resonance (self oscillating-with gorgeous sine wave!), eight octave fixed filter bank finished off with a High pass filter. Duophonic (paraphonic) keyboard with portamento/legato. Touch sensitive (If you happen to be a Gorilla!) modulation pads. CV/Gate in/out & an external input into the filters & VCA.
The two clever bits of the synth's ergonomics are 1.) the five-LED meters to show the amount of modulation of the various sections; and 2.) the little LED arrows showing the amount of actual signal going from sound sources to VCF and VCA. Then of course there is the very unusual onboard fixed filter bank, and the good CV/gate interfacing. This really is one of the most thorough and effective mono/duosynth designs ever.
In good tested working order, some crackle but with use will get better."

Rossum Electro-Music Trident // Triple VCO with UNIQUE Analog Tones & Modulation
Published on May 5, 2019 DivKidVideo
"Here we have the Rossum Electro-Music Trident. A 'Multi-Synchronic Oscillator Ensemble' which is a trio of analog / analogue oscillators with some unique waveshaping features. Each VCO can be used independently but it comes to life when you make use of the ZING modulation. Zing Modulation is similar to Ring Modulation however the use of hard sync which is switchable between the oscillators results in much more musical "locked" harmonics. It's hands down pretty amazing! Especially when coupled with two modulation oscillators, symmetry control, phase modulation and loads more. Skip around as you see fit with the timing index and if you've ready this far leave a comment with 'ace cakes' at the end. No idea why, just some fun.
