Preset home keyboard version of the Casio CZ line. I'm guessing it has the same phase distortion engine minus programability, but that's just a guess. Curious if it would respond to MIDI CC or sysex for programming. If you know feel free to leave a comment.
"The PG-2K controller from Retroaktiv can control any JX-3P. Factory 3P, Kiwi modded 3P or any 3P/MKS-30 CC modded model. In the case of the Kiwi, all Kiwi mods are supported and it makes it so much easier to use the arcane Kiwi mod."
"Who would have thought?
The more I used the OpSix, the more I started to like it. And this is my own patch I called DEXBA.
Super simple, but it has all what I need: hands-on controls via the drawbars over subtle modulation, the right FX, and the right filters.
FM is always seen as complex, but we don't always have to go to the extreme crazy territories, and we can also stay away from bell sounds and still use some F modulation here and there :)
Since I sold the OB6, and sold the Matriarch, I was missing some pad synth I could just make love with, and I found a little, very little, substitute in this OpSix on loan.
Unfortunately, I am at a point in life where I can't spend what would be needed for some of the big names, but I had my emotional moment with this one, and I am grateful for that.
Enjoy ✨"
Courtesy of Tron-meister, Nigel Hopkins, here's a no-talking, audio demo run-through of the Streetly Violins & Vox tapebanks, with a few patches thrown in for good measure.
As with all other Streetly Tape Volumes, Violin & Vox provides yet more sonic superfood for your M-Tron Pro, via a set of 25 tapebanks, this time focussing on the strong and varied vocal performances of Caitlin Downie and the virtuoso violin voicings of Claire Lindley.
As with all Streetly Tapes Volumes, this pack has been lovingly given the Streetly Skellotron treatment for that authentic sound of EMI tape wearing down playback heads.
Although these are recent recordings, thanks to the character introduced by the Skellotron processing, they have all the tron character you know and love, and sit perfectly alongside classic mellotron strings and choir recordings.
"Please take your time and read the notes included at the beginning and along the video. They’ll help you understand the comparison.
Please also consider subscribing to the channel if you like the video. This is a very time consuming activity, I make this just as a hobby and the only way to know that it’s worth the effort is the statistics of the channel. I have no message for the mankind, but I need to know if you like what I do, if that makes sense. :-)

"Recorded directly using the OB-8's own stereo panning system and some software lexicon hall reverb. No EQ or other tampering of the sound has been made, strictly pure OB-8 goodness."
"This is a patch I've tried to give expressiveness with the Pro 3's modulation capabilities and the nice raw sound of the Black Corporation Rachael. The Rachael is mixed in pre-filter and also separately. Erica Synth's Black Hole DSP 2 adds some echo at the end of the chain."
Pro 3 Legato Gliss Lead: thank you for everything, Dave Smith!
"The Pro 3's alternate gliss mode is for legato playing; the gliss only activates from one note to the next if the first note is held down. Like the opposite of percussion on an organ. This is a factory preset; I had to stop myself from making a patch because I can spend over an hour designing a sound on this synth.
Saddened by the news of Dave Smith's death but his innovations will live on everywhere"
