"Overall this unit is in exceptionally nice condition. This is a consignment piece, owned by one family since new, stored most of its life in the original factory packaging. There are very light marks here and there all visible in the pictures. This is about close to a new-old-stock unit you could have. Functions 100% and sounds amazing.
This synth has been painstakingly restored here at RetroLinear. A complete work report will be provided with the sale. Lots of electronic future-proofing, contacts, controls cleaned, fully calibrated- latest revision voice and system roms.
Includes: • Original factory box • Original sustain foot switch/pedal • Original factory manual"
"The module adds an additional channel to the C960 sequencer. This extension runs directly parallel to the C960 controller.
8 dials with a range of 2V or 4V, adjustable via the enlightened SCALE switch.
GATE SELECT: Selection either from the C960 or from the internal quantizer.
2 voltage outputs are available.
Direct analog or via internal quantizer in semitone steps over the 'SCALE' range."
"The C911A/M DUAL TRIGGER DELAY is designed to be used with 2 or more C911 Envelope Generators. It provides one or two time delays on an input voltage trigger signal (bound for the activation of an envelope voltage trigger). Three different modes of operation are available via the coupling mode switch.
OFF: Delays are activated independently through individual voltage trigger inputs.
PARALLEL: Voltage trigger input to top C911A/M activates timing circuit on both simultaneously.
SERIES: Voltage trigger input to top C911A/M activates top timing circuit, then triggers second upon activation of first."
"This simple, small, inexpensive module is a source of three smoothly varying semi-random control voltages plus a random trigger. This video gives an overview of its behavior.
The short version is:
• Higher Rate settings produce more Triggers over the same period of time, with a sudden increase to audio rate triggers at the clockwise extreme of the Rate control. • The X output is the most active, providing a set of peaks like a “pinged” resonant filter at higher “Rate” settings. A train of these peaks starts with each Trigger output. • The Y output is like a heavily slewed version of the X output, and is somewhat out of phase. • The Z output acts like a bit like a slow attack/decay function generator, triggered by each Trigger output. • As a result of the above, “Rate” works more like a “complexity” control, than the normal speed of an LFO.

"Hi, I have an important update to users of Patch Base on iPad! The latest version of iOS (14.2) appears to have a bug in it that causes crashing when sending MIDI data. This is a bug in iOS itself, not Patch Base, but it means Patch Base crashes when using it at all on 14.2.
I'm currently trying to find a workaround for this bug, but it might not be possible soon. So, I recommend NOT updating to iOS 14.2 if you need Patch Base to work for now. Hopefully Apple will be publishing an update to iOS soon that addresses this bug. I will be monitoring that.
All previous versions of iOS should still work fine though!"
You might want to check your apps as well before updating.
"Here I demo some presets on the new Sequential Prophet 10 rev 4 Synthesizer. This synth is a Prophet 5 rev 4 (which is a reissue of the original Prophet 5) but with another 5 voices! This means lots of polyphony and boy does it sound amazing!
In this video, I have captured audio through Ableton Live, but and no external FX used, and no processing has been done. I did level match in post-production some of the quieter patches but was only a volume bump in Adobe Premier. The Prophet 10 rev 4 is a polyphonic analog synth with a mono output and no onboard FX."
"The Audiothingies MicroMonsta 2 is a dual polyphonic synthesizer"
MicroMonsta 2 is a dual polyphonic synthesizer featuring :
2 x 6 voices of polyphony 3 oscillators, 1 multimode filter, 3 envelopes, 3 LFOs, 10 modulation slots and 2 operators per voice (lag and mult) 12 « analog » oscillator types + 4 FM-able oscillators for OSC1 12 « analog » oscillator types + 8 multisampled wavetables for OSC2 and OSC3 (FM source) 8 filter types with FM Per voice and per oscillator detuning options for analog character Deep modulation matrix Delay + reverb (per program) MicroMonsta (R)evolution
MicroMonsta 2 is a brand new synth design based on our critically acclaimed MicroMonsta synthesizer.
Despite the fact they share the same name, they are different in every way: brand new hardware with much more powerful dsp, upgraded switches and encoders, new low profile sexy aluminum enclosure, different internal architecture and updated algorithms. Everything has been re-done from scratch. It is also USB powered and the output can drive a pair of headphones.
In the end, we believe it’s better in every way, it looks better, it sounds better, has more sound shaping possibilities and is easier to use.
(Santa Cruz CA, November 16, 2020) — Rossum Electro-Music has announced the introduction of their Mob of Emus eurorack synthesizer module.
Mob of Emus is a powerful music and sound design tool that packs an enormous amount of creative power into an amazingly compact 16HP module.
Mob of Emus provides six channels of oscillators, noise sources, cyclical and 1-shot modulators (including LFOs, envelopes, and various other shapes), sample and hold waveshapes, slow random modulators, triggers, rhythm patterns, and quantization (of both internal and external signals) in pretty much any combination. In addition to being able to independently program the function of each individual channel, Mob of Emus’ Hex Mode provides a macro control layer that allows you to control all of its channels simultaneously (while maintaining the relationships of each channel’s independent programming).
What’s more, Mob of Emus’ “harmonic” control structure makes it extremely easy to combine its oscillators into rich additive timbres, to combine its LFOs into stacked harmonic low frequency modulation waves, and to create modulation sources and triggers with intricate polyrhythmic patterns.
With an external trigger input, six CV inputs that can operate in six different control modes, six independent outputs, and an assignable mix output, Mob of Emus can operate as the heart of an almost unlimited variety of patches. And its 8 real-time controls give immediate hands-on access to a channel’s (or all six channels’) key parameters, inviting (and rewarding) exploration and improvisation.
Mob of Emus features include:
• Six channels that can function independently or can be further controlled by a Hex Mode macro layer that lets you control all six simultaneously.
Channels can be:
- Wide-range digital oscillators - Noise sources - Cyclical and 1-shot modulators (including LFOs, envelopes, and various other shapes) - Sample and hold waveshapes - Slow random modulators - Triggers - Rhythm patterns - Quantizers (of both internal and external(!) signals)
• Six CV inputs that can function in six different control modes
• Eight real-time controls for immediate access to key channel parameters
• Six individual channel outputs and an assignable mix output
• The ability to store and recall 12 user presets
• And much more…
Mob of Emus is 16HP wide and 25mm deep.
Power requirements (max): 130mA +12V, 25mA -12V. Reverse polarity protected.
Mob of Emus will be available in late November from Rossum Electro-Music dealers worldwide at a suggested retail price in the US of $399.00.
