Video in the listing previously posted here.
"The synth came from a smoke free studio, it has a couple of knicks in the wood end cheeks and on one of the end cheeks is what appears to be duct tape adhesive residue. It was like this when I bought it, other than that, it's fully functional.
The Chroma Polaris was the second synthesizer made by Fender/Rhodes after they took over ARP, following their classic . It has a classic analog ARP-like sound, kind-of tinny but also fat. Sounds can be layered up to 6 voices. It has typical analog synth controls including a cool 'sweep' knob for sweeping through the LFO or analog filter cutoff parameters. It also has a simple real-time sequencer and 132 memory patches.
There's also a nice and colorful layout with sliders similar to Roland Juno synths, membrane push-buttons and a large velocity sensitive 61-note keyboard making the Chroma Polaris a very nice synth. Fully MIDI-equipped, the Polaris will transmit and receive all its edit controls through MIDI as well as the ability to play up to three patches at once."

"JX8P that has a Retroaktiv PG-800 MINI Controller built into it, which brings this to a whole other level. These are great as is, but you really need the PG-800 controller to do anything with it, and the original ones can be the same price as the synth..."

Moog One Sound
Published on Apr 12, 2020 Boele Gerkes
Playlist:
1. Moog One Sound #1
So... after more than a year of doubts, I finally dared to purchase a Moog One, and the thing goes beyond my wildest dreams...2. Moog One Sound #2
This first recording is a simple two oscillator sound, where I modulate the wave shape of oscillator 1 and 2 (saw/sine) with a random shaped LFO and the pitch with another saw tooth shaped LFO. A little delay from the One does the rest.
You can easily get in 'Cortini'-territory if you like: Buchla-esque types of sounds. Not in the last place because of the incredible musical envelopes with all their stage curve shaping possibilities.
But also because of the character of the oscillators. WELL done Moog!
This one is a bit more experimental. It's three arps not synced to master clock and all three running at a slightly different speed. :)3. Moog One Sound #3
I start with arp 1 on solo, then 2, then 3, then all three.
Allright, the last one for today: this is a more conventional arp sound, both synced to the master clock. Two layers with the same sound however one of them 1 octave up. Arp play mode is "random" on both layers. Dotted delay does the rest. There is a slight part of ring modulation in the mixer. The ring modulator is pure heaven by the way.
Steampunk/Ambient Live Performance (1 Pattern Only) - Teenage Engineering OP-Z
Published on Apr 12, 2020 Lo-fi Pask
'I picked up one of my work in progress OP-Z's Project and did a 'live' jam with it. All sounds comes from OP-Z, all stock sounds and all played using only one pattern.
I'm trying this new "easier" format for my videos, wish you'd like it."

Yamaha TG33 w/ Original Box & Manual

"The TG33 sound module is a slightly enhanced key-less version of the SY22. It is a digital synthesizer that employs frequency modulation (FM) synthesis combined with low-fi (12-bit) AWM ROM samples. However, this machine is not low quality (especially for the electronica-oriented musician). Its preset sounds are a bit thin, however using the joystick controller you can manipulate and combine the 12-bit samples with the any of the 256 FM vector voices. This gives it a range of tone and sound that is as dynamic and mysterious as other vector synths such as the Korg Wavestation and ProphetVS.
Also available is a drum kit, effects, 16-part multitimbrality for layering sounds and 32 note polyphony! Definitely a powerful little beast that can create pretty nice sounds with lots of motion and character. With its wide range of sonic possibility, the TG33 has what it takes to create unique sounds that will keep you and you're music sounding a little different from the rest!"
