1982 Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 Rev 3.3 w/ Factory MIDI SN 5852
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"Up for grabs is a beautiful Prophet 5 Rev 3.3 with factory MIDI from the inventor himself!
We acquired this amazing Prophet by chance while working out of a studio in Southern California right before the pandemic. It was a backup unit to their Rev 2 that had seen more action moving/Tetris/inventory than time in use. In order to get it home we purchase a brand new top of the line encore ATA flight case with wheels ($700+ road case) which is included in the sale as well. The case has flown a total of 3 times: once home, then back and forth to a remote session as it was a ‘must have’ per the clients request. It is in excellent condition. The case is currently in climate controlled storage warehouse, pictures will be up soon.
The synth’s cabinet shows typical wear for a Prophet 5 but is structurally sound. The wood cabinet gets a linseed oil treatment every 3 months as part of our routine studio upkeep. If you have wood cabinet equipment I highly recommend linseed oil if you want to preserve the quality of wood.
Routine maintenance for upkeep as follows:
-Power supply electrolytic caps updated.
-Keybed serviced with new bushings and J wire assembly cleaned and fine tuned.
-Battery replacement to ensure longevity.
We are listing this in Very Good condition because of the minor cosmetic imperfections. Otherwise this Prophet is in Mint condition."

"Absolutely brand new synthesizer! Flawless operation of all elements. Since the date of purchase turned on 2 times, all factory seals are in place, not disassembled, complete set. You can install a midi-mod (which will be included in the price) but considering the condition I think this is illegal :) For true connoisseurs."

Roland SH-1000 Analog Synthesizer - Vintage
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

"The first commercially-available synthesizer marketed by Roland.
Works great, sounds great! There's a touch of key bounce detectable when "staccato" is selected, but I'm not sure that's abnormal.
All modules, sliders, switches, and presets are functional, and it's relatively quiet for its age.
The right wooden side-panel has come off, but it’s present and repairable. It's 48 years old, so the keyboard needs a good cleanup and calibration, but the keys, switches, dividers, and presets are all functioning properly, which I found amazing.
There was some tuner crackling ans static when I obtained it; the only servicing I've done was cycling the tuners until the crackling and static went away.
Everything is working smoothly, but with enough resistance to suggest that either lubricant-type solvent cleaner was used, none was used or that lubricant was replaced if solvent was used.
It came with a home-made hinged wooden case that was NOT form fit, and that case will be included with the sale."

All sliders removed, opened,cleaned and lubricated.

Sounds amazing."

Univox Korg Mini-Korg 2 (700, K2) 1974 SN 1376
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

"A rare and unusual vintage mono synth from 1974. The Univox/Korg Mini-Korg 2/K-2. Kind of in the same vein as the Roland SH-1000/2000 but it's really in a league of its own. Groovy design with the sliders predominantly on the front of the instrument, below the keyboard. Makes putting this on the top tier of your rack a no brainer!
Considering its age, this synthesizer is in excellent shape. Everything functions as it should. The sliders are a little stiff (some more than others) and could use a good cleaning I'm sure. One of the original switches (Travel Vibrato) was swapped out for a button, which is interesting and perhaps even a slight improvement from a functional viewpoint). The switches are in great shape and I love the funky design). There are a few dings and scratches here and there, which I've tried to document in the photos."

"the flood" - sequential OB-6 jamming along with Arturia Microfreak
video upload by Franz Schimmel
"In this case i am working with a drum sound of the OBie, well keeping in mind that the Oberheim does not have the snappyest envelopes, but its got an analog overdrive on board, which is also interesting for this kind of effort... quite audible also the onboard phaser of the OBie. Freak adds some ethereal string sounds, mangled through my mxr stereo chorus and the GFI specular tempus. Bit of compression added in post. Footage layered in shotcut (freeware) editor."
Luke Neptune's Synthwave Soundset for Novation Summit
video upload by Luke Neptune
"Buy this soundset here http://www.lukeneptune.com/downloads/...
So it turns out that the Novation Summit excels at Synthwave sounds. What a pleasure it was to make these patches.
I hope you enjoy these 107 new sounds for the mighty Novation Summit as much as i enjoyed making them.
I focused mainly on warm, lush, silky, and twinkly type sounds so if that’s your thing then you should give this soundset a listen."
Synthesizer Jam: Scent of Spring - Operator Burstup (TR-808, MiniBrute 2S, TD-3, Model:Cycles)
video upload by Operator Burstup
"This live jam was inspired by a gorgeous morning outside. Blue sky, pink blossoms on the trees in front of the house, nice temperature... spring is awesome. I felt relaxed and was in the mood for another #DubTechno tune, but didn't want to work in the DAW. So once again I played with some of my synths and drum machines.
In this video I'm using my Roland TR-808 (I have it since the 1990s), an Arturia MiniBrute 2S (semi-modular and with an amazing sequencer), an Elektron Model:Cycles (the most fun FM synth I own), a Behringer TD-3 (very good clone of the TB-303) and the Space Echo RE-20. I hope you will enjoy this tune.😸
