Ouroboros Lumen Spatial Voices • Gestural Synthesizer Demo
Ouroboros Electronics
"Lumen Spatial Voices:
The third instrument the Lumen series of one-off gestural synthesizers.
This one is the most complex of the three - consisting of two individual triangle wave oscillators which are panned hard left and hard right in the stereo field while in their default states. The knobs adjust the base frequencies of the oscillators, and the sensors control the rate at which they are gated and step through individual two-tone intervals. The three switches cross-modulate and affect the two voices in different ways via frequency modulation, timbre modulation, and overdrive while also drastically changing their relative positions in the stereo field. Percussive transients, stepped tones, stereo ripples, and complex modulation from chaotic and noisey to soft and subtle. A compact and expressive instrument for performance techniques and experimental sonics in the vein of west coast synthesis. A demo video is now up on Youtube. It is powered by a 9v battery, and the enclosure is made from Purpleheart and finished in boiled linseed oil with a powder coated steel bottom piece. This instrument is now available for $200 + $15 shipping within the US. To order: email ouroboros.electronics.us@gmail.com"
Podcast 330: Stephan Schmitt
20Objects
"Talk about a career! Stephan Schmitt started his journey into audio development by making noisy object as a kid, then got into electrical engineering to work on large format consoles (which is where he took on software...), then co-founded Native Instruments, creating Generator/Reaktor. After years with NI (including the development of Spark, Skanner and Kontour), he set off to work on his ultimate project: a keyboard player's dream synth, called the Nonlinear Labs C15.
In our chat, we talk about his history through the creation of NI, how he finds the synth voicings that are his signature development, and how the C15 fits into the world of modern music playing and production. Along the way, we also learn a lot about the things that (according to Stephan) make a synth 'expressive', and how this can benefit the live synth player.
Super fascinating, and a chance to learn the history behind the earliest days of virtual synth development, and the on-going work creating a niche hardware device. Check out Nonlinear Labs at https://www.nonlinear-labs.de/index.html."

"For sale is a vintage PAiA 2720 analogue modular synthesizer from the 1970s. It is in what consider very good condition for its age with minor cosmetic wear. It is completely fully functional & has every module option installed. Some keys do show discoloration likely from exposure to nicotine. However, the unit itself does not have a foul odor."

E-MU Systems Emax I SE plus Sampler/Baldwin Ike
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

"This Baldwin IKE has been completely transformed into an E-mu EMAX 1 SE Plus running the latest operating system (OS 1.0 Plus), which allows for hard drive support via SCSI! This unit does it all!
Upgrades
Beautiful Blue OLED Display
Custom EMAX SE Overlay (contains all function/menu shortcuts)
Internal SCSI2SD Drive (4 "drives" on one SD card with 35 banks each; the first SCSI ID is fully loaded with a "best of" the Factory E-mu samples, the other 3 SCSI IDs are empty and ready for your creations!)
Loads entire banks in around 2 seconds
In addition to the SCSI2SD hard drive functionality, the 1.0 Plus Operating System contains all of the great/unique features of the EMAX SE Plus, including:
Spectrum Interpolation Synthesis: This provides a complete digital additive synthesizer. Up to 24 sine wave frequencies can be added to from Spectrums. These Spectrums can be placed at up to 24 time slice locations, so that the sound varies over time.
Transform Multiplication: TM synthesis imposes the harmonic characteristics of one sample upon a second sample to create a new sample.
This sampler is fully functional, and sounds like nothing else. I've listed it as Very Good for the following reasons:
There are a few cosmetic blemishes here and there, many of which I have captured via close-up image
The custom overlay fits perfectly, but the LEDs underneath are off center by about a millimeter; it is very minor, but worth noting
The bottom slider, which navigates through the menus, is slightly sensitive when at its lowest level/position; also very minor, but worth noting"

Roland Jupiter-8 w/ MIDI
Korg 900PS Vintage Analog Synthesizer SN 750052
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"The 37-key Korg 900PS, released in 1975, is a rare and interesting analog monophonic synthesizer with a variety of tone colors. The tones are tweaked via the multitude of controls on the front panel of the synth, providing a great tactile experience during performance. The 29 presets on this synth really cover a lot of sounds, including shamisen (!), clarinet, violin, white noise, synth bass, and more. Further controls for harmonics, attack/sustain VCA, portamento, and more allow for even more tonal customization. Don’t miss this rare synth in very good condition!"
