"The reverb used is external, it's not coming from the Midibox Sid"

via this auction

"Midibox SID DIY synthesizer. It was built by my friend at Feedback Modules 12 years ago. It has a solid metal case and works perfectly. It's the real deal when it comes to C64 sounds. It has some gritty 8bit sounds as well as a real analogue multimode filter, 3 oscillators and plenty of modulations. The chip came from my old C64, it's the latest version, the one with the fewer bugs. I've made a video demo with some presets, you can find it on this page. The reverb is coming from an external unit."

Solina String Ensemble Synthesizer Arp Explorer

video upload by boogie-boutique

"Rare Solina String-Synthesizer, a combination of the classic String-Ensemble and an Arp Explorer monopnonic synthesizer in one box including the ability to route the strings through the filter of the Explorer, very nice. Not my finest playing but shows working order, this unit was damaged from transport and works again after technical repair a few years ago."

"This is a very rare hybrid version of the Solina String. It is supposed that only 100 units were built by Eminent in Netherland (Bodegraven). It is a combination of the String Ensemble and the Arp Explorer 1. The mix beetween synthetizer filter and the string machine makes really nice possibilities and a so nice athmospheric sounds."

"The MS20 controller have been moded to spend less estate on my home studio. It can be reversed back to it’s original feature, everything is inside the box"

Kind of interesting to see what the MS20 might have looked liked if they went with a flat panel design.

2 x Roland SH-1000 Analog Synthesizer 1973 | HD DEMO – Comparison

video upload by Andy Whitmore

"The Roland SH-1000 is a monophonic analog synth.
It has a fully programmable part and a preset part in addition.
It has an awesome analog tone!
Not to be confused with the SH-2000, which is a fully preset synthesizer.

The Roland SH-1000, introduced in 1973, was the first compact synthesizer produced in Japan, and the first synthesizer produced by Roland.

It resembles a home organ more than a commercial synth, with coloured tabs labelled with descriptions of its presets and of the "footage" of the divide-down oscillator system used in its manually editable synthesizer section. It produced electronic sounds that many professional musicians sought after whilst being easier to obtain and transport than its Western equivalents.

The synthesizer has 10 simple preset voices combined with a manually editable section which can be manually tweaked around to create new interesting sounds. No user program memory is available. Its effects include white noise generator, portamento, octave transposition, two low frequency oscillators and a random note generator. Even with a single oscillator, it sounds like there are several thanks to the 8 sub-osc keys. The ninth is the (white or pink) noise."
