Roland Jupiter-4 Plug-in - Sounds Only Sonic LAB
video upload by sonicstate
This got me thinking of augmented reality synths. Imagine playig an ARP 2500 relaxing in your recliner.
"Jim Heywood, our resident sounds only guy, has a System-8 and took the Jupiter-4 Plug-in for a spin - though in this video he was using the System-8 to control the plug-in version - you can also run it as a plug-out in the System 8 - so we could see the full UI.
In his hands it does sound fairly delicious, and indeed you can grab the bank of presets he made via our http://Patreon.com/sonicstate.
Roland Jupiter-4 plug-in/plug-out is available now via Roland Cloud, either as a single one off perpetual license $199, or as part of the Roland Cloud Pro plan ($9.99/month) where it can be one of the two optional instruments, or as part of the Ultimate plan ($19.99/month) where you get everything they have. http://Rolandcloud.com"
Arcaico new module - Teaser Trailer #eurorackmodular #synth #modularsynth #arcaico
video upload by Arcaico Instruments
"We are pleased to announce
that we are working on the making of a stop motion short film
for the presentation of our new module.
Our passion for this wonderful cinematographic technique led us experience a new way of sponsoring our eurorack modules.
The scenography and the characters are handmade
with recycled materials and only opensouce softwares were used for digital processing.
Music and effects were made with Arcaico modules.
Those who already know this technique know how much work does it take to produce even just a sequence of a few seconds.
We are doing our best to launch as soon as possible the first video that will present the new module.
In this short teaser trailer you can see part of the setting and the scenography.
We hope you enjoy it!"

Acidlab Bombass Blue

via this auction
"Analogue synth based on the 303.
The joke with users is that the name of this synth is pronounced Bom Bass by people who've never played one, and people who own one pronounce it Bomb Ass!
The bass this synth makes is FATTER than my Pro One or my Minimoog, and the only synth I've heard that I can compare to it would be the Roland SH-2. More than just a 303 clone, it goes way beyond that and is pretty versatile for a mono synth, with lots of modulation plus CV/Audio inputs.
Unit is in excellent condition, no cosmetic blemishes and all pots and switches are in working order."

Vintage Original Steiner Parker Synthacon

via this auction
"Steiner Parker Synthacon original, recently totally overhauled/serviced. I think this synth sounds more interesting than most vintage synths like the minimoog/2600/synthi, it has a real wild 70’s sound with raw oscillators and juicy filter, it’s unpredictable sounding in the best way possible. Local pickup in San Francisco, please contact me prior to purchasing to arrange payment and pickup."
You can find a few good demos of the original Steiner Parker Synthacon from Todd Barton in previous posts here, and additiona demos thoughout posts here.

Vintage ARP 2600 Tonus Logo Synthesizer w/matching 3604P Keyboard
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction, also on Reverb
"Original Vintage ARP 2600. This is an early Tonus logo 2600, which is prized for a better audio path than later ARP 2600s. Includes the matching 3604P keyboard controller, keyboard cable, power cord, and both lids. Both the synthesizer and keyboard controller have just been serviced by Synthchaser. Work done included:
Power supply recapped, new thermal pads on power supply transistors
Sliders cleaned
All tantalum capacitors replaced (except those in submodules)
Ring Modulator and Sample & Hold submodules replaced with new Synthchaser modules
Both connectors for the keyboard controller and 6 other internal connectors have been replaced for reliable operation
Nuts, washers, knobs and slider caps ultrasonically cleaned
Full calibration under oscilloscope
3604P Keyboard refurbished
New key bushings
Key contacts and bus bars cleaned
Keycaps ultrasonically cleaned
Bellcrank caps cleaned and relubricated
Tantalum capacitors in keyboard electronics recapped
The synthesizer is in good condition. There is a scratch on the panel below the pre-amplifier. The manual gate button contacts are dirty or worn and sometimes it does not trigger. Parts of the tolex case are shinier and it looks like something was on top of it that had been removed. This is most noticeable on the keyboard controller and the lid of the synthesizer, not really on parts you would notice when set up in your studio. See pictures for details."
