"Kawai SX-240 in fantastic cosmetic and functional shape with a replaced battery and handmade mahogany sides

The only blemish to note is a tiny fleck of pant chipped from the top panel on the right edge, and some tarnishing of the jack nuts, otherwise this instrument is incredibly nice. it looks amazing and functions perfectly.

This is one of my favorite synths of all time, sounds unbelievable in DUAL mode. It is refined and silky yet capable of aggressive and monstrous sounds.

Waldorf Iridium, Moog Slim Phatty,DSI Pro 2, Virus C: sequenced jam


Brittle stR music

"Iberis is a miniature shrub with a mass of white late-spring blossom: almost as pretty as the Iridium's dynamic display of filter modulation! The popcorn percussion is from the Phatty; the arpeggiated sequence from the Pro 2; swell pad from the Virus; and the Iridium provides the big brassy melody and complex pad. All is sequenced by Korg Gadget 2, with drums by a couple of the drum machine gadgets."

Omar El Shariyi Oriental Music & a Mystery Synth


WEWANTSOUNDS

Anyone ID the synth? It reminds me of a Moog Sonic V, but that's clearly not it. Update: found it! :) It just clicked.  Funny how that happens.

This one surprisingly came to my inbox via https://records.theother.co.za. I found the video above from WEWANTSOUNDS who also has it for sale. For those with gift cards to burn you can find it on Amazon as well. Do your due dilligence on price, shipping, etc...

Details from the video above:

"INSTRUMENTAL CULT CLASSIC BY LEGENDARY EGYPTIAN MUSICIAN AMMAR EL SHEREI, FIRST RELEASED ON SOUTELPHAN IN 1976, IS REISSUED ON VINYL FOR THE FIRST TIME EVER

Wewantsounds is delighted to announce the reissue of Ammar El Sherei's superb instrumental album “Oriental Music” from 1976. Here, the iconic Egyptian musician and composer revisits six classic compositions by another Egyptian legend, Mohamed Abdel Wahab, in his own hypnotic way. This reissue has been newly remastered and comes in its beautiful original artwork."
