Nord Original Nord Lead with "E" 12 voice expansion - 2.6 OS & PCMCIA

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This original lead version is considered to sound the most "Raw" sounding of all the Nord Leads. Far bigger sounding than the others and the most "analog" sounding. True to Juno, Oberheim, Prophet and MOOG territory. It covers all the bases with ease."

Came with the Prophet-5 preset bank.

Univox Compaq 2 1970s Black

"Here is the rare Univox Compac 2, made in Italy. Fully functional, 61 key electric keyboard.

$300 OBO

The keyboard is organized into 2 main sections:

1 - Full polyphony based on 12 discrete Squared-shape oscillators + 7X SAJ2110 a 7-stage Frequency Dividers IC

2 - Solo synth mono section with no control but volume.

Basically there is a switch that allows you to have the lower register turn into an electric “bass” which you can also route to a separate output for a bass amp.

The keyboard has a Clavinet setting, “honky tonk”, and Piano setting. Not exactly realistic piano sounds, but a very unique variation.

One of my favorite features is the built in analog phaser with adjustable speed, very psychedelic/prog.

There are 2 switches under the keys, the left is for the phaser speed, and the right is a pitch-bend."

Sequential Artist Spotlight Interview with JONATHAN HARTMAN

You can find the interview on Sequential's website here.

"Jonathan Hartman is a musical polymath, an accomplished composer drawing upon the traditions of film music, jazz, synthesis and 20th century minimalism to create compelling scores for film and television. He’s gained a reputation for his absolute commitment to communicating the heart of character and story to musically express the beautiful, the arcane and the profound.

Jonathan began his musical journey in the Jazz world. His grandfather was the Master Engraver at King Musical Instruments whose artists included Dizzy Gillespie and Charlie Parker. A young saxophone prodigy, Jonathan began performing professionally at age 15. His mentors included jazz greats Joe Lovano, Clark Terry, and James Moody. Jonathan was heavily influenced as a young composer by the string writing & postmodern sensibilities of Igor Stravinsky, Villa Lobos, and minimalist Steve Reich.

Jonathan was nominated for a Daytime Emmy for his original score for DARK/WEB (Amazon Prime). The dark cyber thriller was a deep exploration into cutting edge analog synthesis. A complete bio for Jonathan can be found here. We chatted with Jonathan on how he uses the Prophet Rev2 in his music."

Smokey Quartz - Plant Music 18

Smokey Quartz

"In this plant music video I find a nice chard plant to record some spacey jams. The biofeedback from the chard is picked up by the MIDI Sprout and converted into MIDI notes. The MIDI is then sent through some Ableton and Max4Live MIDI effects before being played by a piano, Buchla Music Easel and a Jupiter 8, all from Arturia. Stick around to the end when things get violent."
