EDP Wasp Analogue Synthesizer + Noise Militia FX Wasp Filter
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
This appears to be the first post to feature Noise Militia FX.
"Made in UK between 1978-1981, here we have an ORIGINAL Wasp synthesizer in great condition. Only 3,000 ever made. EDP (Electronic Dream Plant) were creators of some great products at the time; star item being the OSCar synth. Chris Hugget went on to become involved with Novation, who are still around today, with British synths that hold their own with any other in the world eg Summit (KKGB have one in stock).
SOUNDS LIKE:- very capable synthesizer delivers a vast array of sounds. Its "additive synthesis", really...meaning you have to understand what is happening re the audio path. Having TWO oscillators is a huge bonus, with noise/sample & hold/glide all there for free.. It can sound pleasantly sweet (steady now...dont let music get in the way..), or devilishly wicked/weird and/or funky bass lines/screaming solo lines, and everything in-between. NO "snowflake/lazy boy" presets for you to get you started...oh, no...this is raw analogue at its smouldering best....
FREE gift >> WASP FILTER (Noise Militia FX) is included in the price. This device can be used with any synth, for wazzing delights and stuff (worth £199)."

Pics of the inside below. You can find a demo of one previously posted here.
"Böhm 12/24 FM Rack Synthesizer. 4 operators. 8 algorithms. velocity, aftertouch. SUPER RARE FULL VERSION. Completely equipped circuit board - therefore 24 voices instead of the usual 12. Rare FM sounds, 98 presets. Yamaha chips. Sounds similar to Yamaha DX21, 27, 100. Comparatively soft sound for an FM synthesizer. https://youtu.be/yHZmApBZyqQ Good condition. The backup battery should be changed as the device hangs from time to time and needs to be resetted. Power supply hums a bit. Works perfectly with any MIDI controller. Comes With power cord. 220 Volt"

Vintage Fisher SC-300 Stereo Music Composer Keyboard Boombox
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"The Fisher SC-300 Music Composer System Boombox!
A hybrid of a boombox, synth / drum machine and tape machine.
A little dusty but everything works. Write your swan song....
The speakers and the keyboard are detachable. The keyboard comes out when you push the boom box handle down. Apparently, it is pretty difficult to find these with the wireless keyboard still working.
The keyboard can be played and recorded directly to cassette. It’s got a little LCD display which displays the instrument that's being played and the key that's pressed. The synth sounds are: piano, harpsichord, organ, violin, flute, horn, fantasy, and mellow."

Polaxis Terminal / Emy Speech Synthesizer
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
You can find demos in previous posts here.
"Terminal is a standalone modular speech synthesizer containing Emy and a little PCB to provide power and extended connectivity.
It is powered via a USB connector. The casing allows adding any of the Vox modules inside just by removing four screws.
Terminal / EMY can be used in a CV-controlled environment or act as a MIDI instrument.
You can install the various firmware on the SD card before powering the device.
A pair of shunts allows the user to connect Terminal either as a MIDI USB unit or as a host for a USB keyboard for text entry. TRS jack MIDI Type B connector.
Emy is a versatile speech synthesizer that can host a hardware synthesizer on its back via a mikroBUS port. This port allows transforming Emy in a matter of a minute. TMS5220/TMS5100 / TMC0281 (Speak & Spell) included.
LPC data are read from the SD card so an infinite vocabulary can be loaded
Sound and vocabulary can be produced by concatenating allophones and prosody markers from the text file to affect rate, duration, and pitch. No limits here!
The OLED crisp display allows browsing amongst the files and the lines within files to pick the sound the user wants to generate.
Speech rendering can be tweaked in real-time to affect, rate, stretch, bend, pitch, and energy.
All the potentiometers have CV entries attached to them
Emy produces sounds in 3 major modes: Speech, Repeat, and VCO.
In Speech mode, the speech starts with a gate signal and is completed before waiting for a new gate signal. The speech has priority.
In Repeat mode, the speech starts and stops with the gate signal going high or low.
The gate has the priority, and the speech repeats while the gate is high. This mode is handy to create crazy rhythms.
In VCO mode, the LPC engine loops while the gate is high, producing steady notes."

ARCADE via this auction
"What is it?
Sound synthesis through Frequency Modulation (FM) allows to obtain unique sounds that defined a whole musical generation during the 80's and 90's. The model ARCADE uses the YM2151 Yamaha chip that was used in almost all the arcade machines in those years.
What makes it special?
The YM2151 has eight channels with four operators per channel. The operators can interact according to eight different algorithms. Attack-Decay-Sustain-Release (ADSR) envelopes, frequencies and low frequency oscillators (LFOs) can be modified to obtain the whole range of FM sounds.
