"Here is a rare chance to get an classic FM synth with a killer internal "E" Upgrade.. this DX7IID is in perfect working condition and as you can see it looks amazing as well. E adds lots of features that takes the DX7 into a new expansive territory. Several more banks added, a sequencer, a filter type real time modifier is available via the Data Sliders and so much more. On top of the sounds on the included cartridge, there are 2 banks of 64 patches plus and extra bank 3 and bank 4 that are blank so that you can load or store your own. The only thing to note is that there was a tear in the power cable which was re-set and repaired. Just stating for full disclosure."
In 1920, an engineer named Leon Theremin discovered he could create music and sound by waving his hands around electric fields. Since then, the theremin has inspired musicians and engineers to create new sounds and instruments. MicroKits continues that tradition by designing a version of the theremin that anyone can build, including you! What sounds will you discover?

"Live Techno Set from Modular World Show (083121)"
This is my set from a TECHNO spotlight show that was previously hosted on the Modular World YouTube channel here: https://www.youtube.com/c/ModularWorld
"This simple patch is a synth voice that is inspired by "West Coast" synthesizers like Buchla and Serge modulars from the 1960s and 70s. This patch also has a signal flow similar to the Make Noise 0-Coast. The basic idea behind the patch is to take a simple waveform and fold it to add harmonics, then a lowpass gate is used to control the dynamics of the sound.
Modules we used: - AJH MiniMod Vintage Transistor Core VCO - Random Source Serge Wave Multipliers - Erica Synths Black Dual ASR EG - Erica Synths Black LPG - Korg SQ-1 Sequencer
The Patch:
- Audio - VCO triangle or sine wave into the wave-folder audio input - wave-folder audio out to the lowpass gate audio input - the lowpass gate's audio out is the final output sound
- Control - 1v/oct from sequencer or keyboard to osc 1v/oct input - sequencer gate out to gate in on envelope generator - envelope generator out to wave-folder CV input - sequencer gate out to LPG "ping" input
Extra things to try out: - the gate length of your sequencer will affect how plucky the sound is, so try adjusting it - different wave-folders will have different sounds so try out a few if you have them - if your wave-folder doesn't have a CV fold amount control you can use a VCA before the wave-folder and control that with the envelope - if you don't have a lowpass gate you can try this patch out with just a filter or VCA after the wave-folder with an envelope opening it - try other waveforms besides triangle and sine into the wave-folder - try running more than one oscillator into the wave-folder and see how the multiple oscillators interact
Let us know what you think of this patch and what similar patches you use. We are going to publish more tutorials and other videos here and on our Instagram and TikTok, let us know what you want to see.
