'Not moving on' - Mellow, Melodic Eurorack Performance AJH MiniMod & Gemini
"One of several tracks I'm weighing up for the next 'tomorrow the cure' release on Bandcamp, which will consist of 'live sessions' (as was the previous TTC release), and will be tiltled 'Two Voices'. https://tomorrowthecure.bandcamp.com
This track makes particular use of the Gemini VCF as two seperate filters - the melodic part (an arpeggio from the Keystep in random mode) consists of either the Entropic Doom (alone as a pitched noise VCO, sometimes with a regular VCO mixed into it's audio input, or used as a sync source), or just the standard VCO through the Ring SM (where additional octaves are added). The output of both the Entropic Doom and the Ring SM go to independent filters on the Gemini, Low Pass and Band Pass respectively. Then, the keyboard/sequencer gate from the Keystep triggers the Sample & Hold module, which modulates the mix between the output of these two filters using the Gemini's built-in voltage controlled mixer/cross-fader. I'm also using the CV Mix module to set the modulation level, range, and start/end positions.
The drone sound is two VCOs going through the Wave Swarm to the Ladder Filter, at certain points I manually shift the pitch of one of the VCOs using the Precision Voltages module, via the Glide module (up only).
Recorded into AUM on an iPad with EOS2 reverb.
Added video footage is of the North Norfolk Railway, then the Mid Norfolk Railway, UK (before 'lockdown')."

You can find a demo of one posted here.
"A special version of the Rave-O-Lution 309 with a black finish, special patterns, and two sound expansion boards (Drum X & Synth X)
A lot of the internal patterns sound like direct excerpts from Klaus Schulze's techno albums.
The 309 is pretty much a Roland TR808/909 drum machine with a TB303 built in. It has a sequencer, dozens of drum, percussion and synth sounds to choose from, four audio outputs, two audio input, built-in effects and MIDI.
The bass drum, snare and hi-hat sounds can be chosen from a whole bank of samples and have pitch and decay knobs to help find that perfect tone.
There's a 12-note polyphonic bank of percussion sounds which include a lot of synth and string hits.
The mono lead/bass synth has a variable lowpass filter with resonance so you can tweak to your hearts content.
Effects wise, there's the "Overblast" overdrive knob as well as delay, flanger, reverb and more!"

Quasimidi RAVE-O-LUTION 309 [FULLY EXPANDED]

"Straight outta 1996 Germany!
Has all 3 expansions (see photos)
Audio [MORE OUTPUTS!]
Drum X [MORE CHUNKY BEATS!]
Synth X [MORE FAT BASS AND LEADS!]
The Rave-O-Lution 309 from now long gone German synth company Quasimidi.
It was generally sought after due to having tweakable drums from all the classic drum machines including 808s, 909s, and more!
While originally intended for techno (and it does techno really well!), its sound palette is quite versatile due to having so many tweakable options on the front panel."

"Moog prodigy in lovely condition, was recently serviced by a local technician. Sound is clean, pots and keybed respond as expected.
This unit hasn't been recapped, the original capacitors were tested for leakage and are still in good shape.
The wood sides finish has been starting to flake off but there aren't any deep scratches. I personally like the worn sides as they give the instrument its own character but they can easily be refinished."

Best Ambient Synth Shootout #99: Böhm Dynamic 4x9 - Song 3
Christian's Sonic Spaces
"This is the third song with the Boehm Dynamic 4x9. It's a German FM-synthesizer from mid-80s that were only available as DIY project. It uses 12(!) Yamaha ICs of the type YM2203, which were commonly used in home computers from NEC as well as in arcade games until the early 90s. Each of the ICs has 3 FM-voices for an overall 36 voices 4-part polyphony.
I used for the recording the following FX for the song:
DigiTech Obscura, Pigtronix Echolution 2 Deluxe, GFI System Specular Reverb 2.
Depending on the recorded track some FX are deactivated.The signal went through a Presonus StudioLive 16.0.2 into the PC for recording. To create the complete song I recorded consecutively several stereo tracks. The final song was then mastered with a bit EQ and compression on some tracks and some limiting on the master track."
