SubSequence | Using the Moog Subharmonicon as a sequencer.
video upload by Cinematic Laboratory
"One of the best features of the Moog Subharmonicon is its sequencer, providing only 2x4 notes, but with four clock dividers supporting polyrhythmic patterns that don't have obvious repeats. I think it's the most important feature that made me get one, but after playing with it for a while I really start to appreciate the sound too. it's a module that delivers instant fast food at first patch, and haute cuisine when you spend some time with it.
In the first part of the video I get lost while setting things up, so this can happen to you too! I'll try to route the sequencer CV to a quantizer (Ornament & Crime) to check if I can 'escape' the 2x4 notes and built in scales (it works!). And finally I'll hook up the MakeNoise 'Shared Museum' and drive it with the Subharmonicon's resources"

"I played my Buchla Easel Command 208C on my balcony. The Buchla is recorded on an Uher 4200 Report Stereo IC tape recorder. A simple drum pattern is running from an Elektron Octatrack and recorded on an Aiwa TP-721. The drums were further processed through an Elektron Analog Heat."

MAKING A MODULAR SYNTH FOR TOOL • DANNY CAREY
video upload by Peter Grenader
"I am Peter Grenader - the designer, curator and sometimes sound designer for Danny Carey's Toolbox, the modular system used live with Tool (Chocolate Chip Trip).
I recently did a huge overhaul and expansion of that system and this video details that journey.
For a recent interview detailing this system and my involvement with Tool, check out Kris West's Spiral Out podcast:

Note the handle on the back of the pedal for carrying it around.
"Closer to "Excellent" condition if not for the previous (original) owner's decision to "paint" notes on the pedals. (It could be removed with relative ease, but we decided to leave it to the next proud owner.) Only a handful of minor scuffs and dings are visible (especially on the corners of the wooden side panels). The graphics are all bright, the module panel is clean, knobs and fader tips are original, the pedals (aside from the painted notes) are clean with no cracks or wear.
The module (343A) and pedal unit (343B) have been fully tested and are working perfectly. Of course, there's a little pitch drift, which we expect. Matching serial numbers!
We're offering the original owner's manual, four of the hard-to-find settings overlays (Original Taurus Voice, Solo VI, Bass I, Bass VII - some staining), pole mount (they're straight mic stands without the base - some pitting), the original factory power supply, and a 'vintage' MIDI cable."

Qun mk2 : Piano mode (Only 8 keys piano)
video upload by Nunomo LLC
"Qun mk2 has piano mode, which is not so practical, external MIDI keyboard is recommended for normal use, because it has only 8 keys.
However, it can do some fun stuff with scale quantize and quick transpose turning the dial."
