WaveBoy -The Voder | The mythical Ensoniq effects - used in new ways
video upload by Espen Kraft
"The Voder effect is a bank of programmable filters that loads into the built-in effects processor of an Ensoniq EPS-16 PLUS or an ASR-10. The filters are multi-band parametric equalizers (EQs) that can be modulated in interesting ways - most notably, they can make a sound talk or sing words!
Like a classic vocoder, the Voder imposes the moving resonance of speech onto any input sound. But while the conventional vocoder uses a live vocal input to derive the control information, the Voder uses the music keyboard or MIDI.Support this channel on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/espenkraft"

"This unit is unique and is the top of the line when it comes to ring-modulation and frequency shifting.
Unreal in a synth rack - it will exponentially expand your sonic pallet, adding new depth to familiar sounds.
This thing is actually too deep to describe - you need to play with it to really get it. But the sound and build of this all-analog piece is superb. If you’re a synth owner, this one unit will add a lifetime of exploration as you rediscover all your existing instruments in a new way.
Not many of these around . . ."

"The Memorymoog was serviced by a pro technician in 2016. Here is the list of the works done on this beautiful Memorymoog:
• The board contacts have been gold-plated. This upgrade is crucial and hugely improves the tuning reliability of the Memorymoog.
• The battery was replaced.
• All pots were cleaned and lubricated
All 6 voices always pass the autotune and the tuning is rock solid.
Anvil case was also restored in late 2016. Original factory program tape is included.
The C sharp key in the second octave needs cleaning as it works intermittently. Other than that the unit is fully functional."

Studio Electronics MIDIMINI w/ R.A. Moog Trumansburg Minimoog #1190 Mixer, Filter, VCA, & ENV

Pics of the inside below.
"Studio Electronics custom built MIDIMINI featuring a genuine Trumansburg era R.A. Moog full back end with board 3 and board 4 harvested from Minimoog # 1190 circa 1972 along with a genuine Moog oscillator buffer board. It sports full military spec potentiometers and controls throughout and beautiful hand wiring with precision. Routine maintenance was performed mid 2022 with the power supply caps updated along with a full calibration. This will ensure longevity for it’s next owner.
With R.A. and MuSonics Minimoogs fetching 6 figures from the high end dealers in recent years, we hope the buyer ends up being one of the 1001-1200 owners for the sake of preservation.
As you can see the inside of the unit is extremely clean and flawless. The outer cosmetic condition clearly shows signs of being moved from rack to rack over the last 30 some odd years."

Oberheim DPX-1 Serviced with Floppy Emulator

"Maybe not the best cosmetically looking DPX-1 but it's a fully serviced one.
The power supply in those is badly designed, with leaking caps, unstable voltage, etc. That was all addressed and is rock solid. All other internal capacitors, including tantalum ones (known to burn) have been replaced. All capacitors are only Nichicon low ESR and Nichicon audio grade series.
The floppy emulator is installed with ~1000 of images from EMU Emulator II library. DPX-1 can load natively EII, Mirage, P2000, Akai data. When it comes to EII, it converts it to the own format which takes about a minute. This was addressed too, all EII image data is in DPX format, so, it takes no extra time for the conversion.
This is also the rare version with dedicated 8 voice outputs installed and CD-ROM interface."
