Additional Tone Tweakers Listings, also on Reverb

"This is one of the original keytars. Connect it to your Prophet-5, strap it on and show that guitarist who's boss!

Since this is generally sold as a collectors item, the price is for an unserviced, untested unit without the special cable you’ll need to hook it up to a prophet-5. Any decent tech could make that cable for you, though the parts are likely not cheap unless they already have the type of cable required. We have no idea whether or not it would work once hooked up - we have no reason to believe it won’t, but, at the very least, this type of keyboard mechanism always needs to be properly rebuilt (bushings replaced, bus bar and j-wires cleaned, etc) in order to work properly. We would normally do this work but need our tech to focus his limited time on more profitable items."

"Knob caps where replaced with High Quality DJ Tech Tools Chroma Caps. All original knob caps are included. Last pic shows unit with rack ears and original knob caps (All Included). The serial shows 0141 which means this is 141st unit to come off the production line. Originally all Prophet 08 desktops were made with encoders instead of pots. This unit was upgraded to the PE (Potentiometer Edition) in 2012. Which is why this includes the original encoder board that was replaced with the PE board. A Savey/Techy person can probably do something cool with the original encoder board."

"Legendary Prophet VS from Sequential utilising vector synthesis at the heart of its function & sounds - this was actually the first digital synthesiser from Sequential (and sadly their last.. but that's another story...).

The VS uses four oscillators per voice with 127 waveforms (32 user) and waveform crossfading via retro joystick at the side.

Loaded with futuristic MIDI functionality, the VS is a digital power house synth (don't worry the filters are analog!) that was the first in the lineage of many vector synths (a concept designed Fully serviced by Steve Jones however aftertouch not quite fully functional."

Patch From Scratch! Qubit Nautilus, Mannequins Just Friends, Monome Teletype

video upload by Matt Lowery

"Hi, hello, good day. Here's a very chill video in which we create a fun generative sequencer with Teletype+Just Friends that is being clocked and processed by the Qubit Nautilus. It's awfully pleasant. I also drink tea, talk about Cormac McCarthy, and almost swallow the dynamic mic that I chose for this informal recording. What's not to love?

Introduction to the Transcendent Waveform Analog Oscillator - Sofia - Xaoc Devices

video upload by Monotrail Tech Talk

"Analog oscillator Sofia from Xaoc devices was one of the modules that caught my eye during Superbooth 22. Over the last month I have been able to mess around with it and explore its sounds! In this video I explain what ripple elements are. Give an overview of the front panel with its functions and features. And then I dive into a series of patch ideas. The chapter ‘Basic patches’ has mostly simple patches with raw audio demos. And ‘Advanced patches’ has a few examples of more complex ideas with effects in a musical setting."
