"Two oscillators per voice - a total of 12 oscillators. 6 analog filters 24dB/oct. It has the same chips (CEM 3396) as the Oberheim Matrix 6 and the Oberheim Matrix 1000, but it is multi-timbral!!! Programming is possible from the front panel, as well as via MIDI editors."
"Nice overall clean condition, works and sounds perfect, but has an issue with the display where the left side 2 digits that shows the preset numbers show only as repeating dual digits regardless of actual number selected. The presets names read fine, but the first 2 numbers dont show right, they mostly show always 88 or 99 all the time regardless of preset number selected. Besides that it works and sounds perfect all around. Lush fat analog oberheim 6 voice sound. Comes with original 90 page manual."

The Siel Cruise is a really interesting instrument. It helped Siel branch out of the Organ building business and into synthesizers. Besides the Sequential Circuits Fugue version, the Cruise’s two sections were also available as separate synthesizers from Siel—the Orchestra and the Mono. The Cruise’s Poly section, the Orchestra, was also released in the USA by ARP as the Quartet. So there is plenty of this synth to go around under various names and forms out there. It is quite capable of some really nice Mellotron-like strings, a fair good piano, though the single-oscillator driven Mono synth is a bit slim due to being a single oscillator, but still quite capable of decent bass and lead sounds.

"Monstera deliciosa plant play vintage 80's yamaha portasound pss-480 synth (with no built in sequencer) in real time with midi biodata sonification device. By attaching the two probes to the leaves of a plant the device measures and identifies the tiny electrical current fluctuations the plant generates. These galvanic fluctuations are turned into midi notes and controls that can be read by synthesizers which allows the plant to tell about its environment and the changes that are going on around it."
"The Erica Synths DB-01 Bassline synth is a monophonic synth and sequencer. Don't let the apparent simplicity of this instrument fool you - it has a fair few tricks up its sleeve."
Curious if paint brushes build up static. Don't want to damage any ICs on the inside.
"I was working on a track this weekend, and I noticed that my Squarp Pyramid was acting up. Some button press wouldn't register, others seem to flicker multiple times. Since most of use are staying home and washing a lot of things, I figured this would be a good time to open up the Pyramid and clean the contacts and pads."
