"A high water mark for glassine pads, premier brass stabs, and surprisingly present basses, the Roland Juno 106 is well deserving of it's status as a classic synthesizer. All voices have been refurbished, this is a fully working specimen, with all sliders and pots cleaned and working wonderfully. Physically, this is a synth which shows it's age and use, but operationally this Juno is a superior sonic experience.

This Juno was just serviced by our in-house technician, all voice chips have been refurbished, all new tact switches and power supply has been fully recapped.

Serial number: 539586"

Waldorf Microwave XT - Non Nextel - Mint with New Knobs

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This is the rare Non-Nextel edition and in really good shapoe.
There are not a lot of Non-Nextels around there and actually this is the only edition who doesnt get shitty colors.
Hence the price. It's also a V3 board so it can receive the voice upgrade which is still available around.

Whats the difference with the Nextel versions? Most Microwave XT versions have that that terrible Nextel paint which decays (gets sticky, flaky, dirty and grey-ish) over time and this can't be fixed. The surface on the edition listed keeps the strong orange colour. I will add some pictures in daylight this was at dawn. Also this version hold it's value if you look at the website history it sells for around this price.

Also the synths had really terrible knobs which are decaying and get sticky and just break apart. I replaced them with premium knobs who look better and don't fall apart over time.

The unit is close to mint it has a few scratch from it's age :)
Display is perfect
Latest version produced so comes with Board #3, possible to upgrade to 30 voices
Original Adapter included"

ADDAC System | ADDAC403 VC Time Signature Clock Sources

video upload by DANIELE

"ADDAC403 by ADDAC System: 8 independent trigger outputs and an easy way to incorporate standard time signatures in your eurorack modular system, along with the possibility to generate syncopation, irregular tempo ratios and phasing, all at once!

0:00 Intro
0:59 Beats output, beats p/bar and beat unit
1:26 Bars output and even output
1:45 Odds output
2:07 Divider section
2:59 Swing delay section
4:03 Phasin section
4:50 Tuplets section
5:44 7/4 Time signature
6:18 More functions"

"This is our long due Eurorack Clock module, featuring multiple sections for a combined total of 8 independent trigger outputs.

Introducing standard time signature musical notation along with the possibility to generate syncopation, irregular tempo ratios and phasing all at once in a single straight forward unit.

We started by programming an extremely stable digital clock with over time drift compensation and adjustable to any Beat per Minute [BPM] up to 1 decimal case (from 0.1 to 250.0 BPM). Also implemented a Tap Tempo button and Pingable input for syncing to external clocks using either Soft or Hard [SYNC] modes.

The Time Signature X/Y section defined as [Beats Per Bar] / [Beat Unit] and generating 4 outputs triggering at every: Beat, Bar, Odd Beat (1,3,5...) and Even Beat (2,4,6...).

A [PAUSE] button sets the Pause/Resume state of the clock also allowing different sync methods on Resume.

A [RESET] button resets either each or both the Main and Phasing Clocks

A Divider section can be set to any beat division in Linear (3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10) or Exponential mode (1,2,4,8,16,32,64,128)

The Phasing section features a totally independent clock that can run in two modes:
[TEMPO] running at a slower/faster bpm phasing in and out of tempo against the main clock.
[OFFSET] running at the same bpm but offsetted/delayed against the main clock generating a steady syncopated beat.

A Tuplet section allows the generation of Triplets, Quintuplets, Septuplets and Ninelets with adjustable [LENGTH] or Span of the tuplet to any number of Beats from 1 to 16.

4 Modes allow different [TRIGGER] and [MUTE] functionalities: they can run in a loop or one shot mode, [TRIGGER] always triggers/resets the Tuplet and [MUTE] can be set to Gate On or Gate Off. Tuplets always output irregular divisions of the Beat and allow Polybeat generation.

A Swing Delay section allow to delay 1 Beat at [Every X Beats]. The [Delay] knob sets the delay in a fraction of 1 Beat, this section also allows the generation of syncopated beats.

More specific settings can be changed in the [SHOW/MENU], menu functions are labeled in gold.

All sections feature they’re own monitor LEDs.

By default Display shows the current Time Signature status.
Pressing the [SHOW/MENU] button sequentially will display each sections settings.
After 3 seconds it automatically returns to default Time Signature status.

All settings can be saved to a single memory slot, upon startup the memory state will be automatically loaded.

All Knobs and Push-Buttons have their own CV/Trigger inputs except the [BPM] encoder and [SHOW/MENU] button."

Eurorack Module In A 5U Modular

video upload by John L Rice

"It's nothing really new, people have made these for themselves in the past, some companies have made short runs of medium sized ones, and Synthesizers.com has a couple large ones they currently sell, but I can't mention the company who made this one or any details about it, at least for now.

The eurorack module in the 5U mount is a micro Braids built by tall-dog.com which is an 8 hp version of the original Braids by Mutable Instruments. I reviewed this system in my first breakdown video which you can watch to learn the details: [posted here] As it is now it's "old school analog" on top and "new school digital" on the bottom! ;-)"
