"The Waldorf Micro Wave, released in Germany in 1989, is a fantastic rackmount synthesizer that still holds up today, over 30 years later. The Micro Wave sound engine is a 8-voice polyphony (8-part multitimbral) wavetable sample-based synthesizer. It features 64 ROM wavetables and waveform samples. Today, this remains a powerful synth unit with superb sounds in the professional class. It has been used by countless artists, such as Nine Inch Nails and Vangelis. Don’t miss this great synth!
This unit is in very good condition, with only minor wear throughout (see photos), including some scratches, minor coloration, and some rust on the screws. The unit has been thoroughly checked and tested by our professional technician, who has confirmed the integrity and otherwise flawless operation of the unit. All buttons and lights are working perfectly. The display is fully functional and easy to read."

Modular self-playing patch: Erica Black Sequencer, Roland 510, Octocontroller, Clouds etc.
Brittle stR music
"This is a 3 voice patch, all sequenced from the Erica Black Sequencer:
* Lead sound is the Roland 510 synth voice with auto-panning from the Erica DSP, before going into Halls of Valhalla on the Tiptop Z-DSP.
* The ‘bass clarinet’ sound is the Doepfer A-111-5 synth voice with panning and delay from my DSI Pro-2, then Lexicon reverb.
* The abstract background is a noise source from Abstract Data Octocontroller, band-pass filtered by Tiptop, modulated by a CV track from the sequencer, enveloped and amped, then into Mutable Clouds for some unpredictable granulation. (I have absolutely no idea why it’s doing what it’s doing!)
On the 2 tonal tracks, there’s probability on a lot of the steps for melodic variation. I’ve just acquired the Black Sequencer, and it’s great having probability in Eurorack at last!"
Wing Pinger Pulses
Robin Rimbaud-Scanner
"A rhythmic exploration of the truly inspiring Meng Qi Wing Pinger. A simple live improvisation running the Wing Pinger through the Eventide H9 pedal, and a little bit of looping with the Montreal Assembly Count to 5 pedal later on. A little sketch, nothing more. And, of course, recommended to listen to on speakers or headphones 😀"

Jamuary #19 - Track from scratch on the Spectralis
TheTechnobear
"Today's Jam is on the Radical Technologies Spectralis, a rare beast, yet one of the most powerful gooveboxes ever made.
I have to admit I dont use the Spectralis that often these days (though that could change after today) ... so really I just wanted to refamiliarise myself it ... as Id forgotten alot.
Then I realised its likely few have seen the Spectralis in action - so decided to do a kind of walkthrough to show it in action.
This is 100% Spectralis, all done on the fly.
the only thing Id prepared was which have some sounds loaded into each part (aka track).... even that I got wrong on last part ;)
So its a warts n' all , so forgive my 'rustiness'.
Coming back to the Spectralis I was struck by a few things:
The sound is fantastic, Id forgotten how good it was.
It has a reputation for complexity, and there is no denying that... but still I was surprised how quickly I got back into it.
As Ive not been using the Spectalis, I have been considering selling it... but have to say a few hours with it has reignitied my passion for it.
There is so much more it can do that I didnt even touch on today.
So, I think I need to put it somewhere where I can use it more again!"
