Published on Nov 29, 2019 Espen Kraft
"The arcade. I spent so many hours there back in the late 80s. Now there are no arcades left in my area. As a reminder of what it used to be, and what it meant to me I give you this track.

"I went to Berklee College of Music from 1995-99. This was the height of the analog synth resurgence, and there was a thriving market of classic analog synths in Boston. I picked this up from an independent dealer for about $500 if I remember correctly. It looks and works today as well as it did when I got it.
While at Berklee, I got to attend a small gathering of students and faculty to hear Bob Moog speak about his storied career. I had lugged the Source to the event, so when I got to meet him and chat afterwards, I asked him to sign it. He kind of chuckled but he accommodated my request. I know the Source was not one of his originals, but it had a special place in my heart from playing a friend’s while in high school, and it still had the Moog name."

"A rare chance to pick one of these up in full working order and backed by warranty.
Restored to a high standard a few years ago – this will ship following a full run-through by our head synth tech, James Walker. It is housed in a stunning custom-built walnut case that more than compliments this synth’s deserved status as a true classic. While the original restoration was performed to a very high standard, this synth will not leave us until James has been over it in detail and we are 100% happy to put our name (and warranty!) to it."

65 pound synth.
""An extremely rare chance to bid on a MacBeth M5N (less than 100 ever made) semi modular synthesiser designed by Ken MacBeth. This is the latest version of the M5 with the modded envelopes which are a lot "snappier" and the filters have been modded to improve S/N. Otherwise the M5N is just a new paintjob and and new slider caps. The sound of the MacBeth is just phenominal...from some of the videos and interviews on the web it seems that Ken took the best of his favourite synths (EMS VCS3, Arp 2600 and MiniMoog) and created a real analogue from scratch using discrete components (no chips) and to my ears this is a real success...its got the qualities of all of the synths which is weird as you end up saying things like "thin but warm", "fat and ethereal" which just doesnt make sense...until you hear the M5N.
Steel housing with three VCOs each with Subosc, Sync function and diverse Waveforms,
Ext. In,
Lag processor,
Two LFOs,
S&H,
24dB Filter,
12dB Filter,
VCA (x2),
Noise,
Ringmodulation,
panning module and diverse connection possibilities.
60 Dials and Switches,
minimum 62 partly self-switching patch sockets and more.
Internal Power supply is expected
Internal Spring Reverb
no midi."
This is made in EU, so is 230 volt, and needs transformer to operate in U.S..
Cannot ship this, it weighs over 65 pounds and is the largest synth in my collection. Pickup in North West Oregon or western Washington only!"

Mutable Instruments Ambika with 4 Extra Filter Cards

"Mutable Instruments Ambika in a custom black metal case. This is a Hybrid Digital/Analog 6 voice Poly Synth. The Analog filters installed in it (6x 4p) give it a very Juno like filter sound. I am also including 4 additional filter cards (2xSMR4, 2xSVF) in case you want to mix and match filters and of course the power supply. Fully functional and in great shape. This unit was originally built by a commercial shop in Chicago so you know its done right."
