"Hey Folks, Dean Friedman here with a friendly suggestion: if you're finding it a challenge to stay up for those all-night synth sessions, our New York School of Synthesis Coffee Mugs (filled with your favorite java, tea or other stimulating beverage) is the ideal solution for modulating those waveforms, oscillators and envelopes and tweaking those filters into shape.
And, of course, we've got plenty of New York School of Synthesis T-Shirts in stock, in both classic white and night-owl black. These classic T's are the epitome of synth fashion. Wearing your NYSS T-shirt out in public will show that you have your finger on the popular pulse wave of the bleeding edge of synth culture. (note: I have no idea what that actually means). Plus they're cool!
"Compusynth is a modular synthesiser that takes inspiration from the west coast paradigm and the mighty Altair8800, one of the first personal microcomputers available to the hobbyists in the mid 70s.
With its peculiar 128 bit sequencer, oscillators, filters, efxs and processors, Compusynth is a powerful sonic laboratory thanks to its generous resources and flexible routing with 1596 patch points!
Compusynth has everything I ever dreamt about west coast modulars: enough resources to create tons of sounds with the addition of a large memory sequencer and a fantastic tape echo.
Compusynth can make weird experimental sounds as well as traditional fat synth sequences that will serve any music genere with its warm and deep tone.
Out now for Mac OSX at giorgiosancristoforo.net.
Windows version is scheduled for January 2023."

"Quick and dirty video to showcase the Böhm Digital Drums i'm selling. [via this auction]
I just made this one to show the unit is fully working, both in performance and record mode.
For those who do not already know this unit it is usually described as the "German Linn Drum" but that is an understatement in my opinion. Sure you get some nice fat 12 bit drum samples and a sequencer that grooves a lot. But it is much more than that.
If you consider it simply as a drum machine from 1983 you would still be amazed by the features it provided back then: 32 user patterns each with fill, break, solo 2 bar and solo 4 bars = 180 possible personal composition in top of the 612 (yes) prerecorded ones, up to 32 bar length and 1/64 resolution, realtime or step recording, individual instrument volumes, automatic or random fills, per pattern or global tempo, sequencer mode, pattern copy and more...
But if you disregard the built-in 'arranger' then you're missing a lot from this great device.
It consists of a 4 part analog synth engine, fully programmable. No possible edition of the sounds but the 66 different presets do sound great. Some are even routed through a analog phasing module built around Panasonic MN3006 BBD chipsets.
You can record your own 5 tracks per pattern, with different bar lengths if you want, and even use the bass part to act as a simple mono bass synth with the provided keyboard !
Probably the most comprehensive unit of its time and genre."

This one has a very rare modification that provides individual outputs and volumes for the 4 synth parts.
It also has the cassette and trigger option fitted to save and load your patterns and tape sync to other gear.
There are more possible options and modifications for the unit, including 8 seperate outputs for drum sounds, MIDI, drum triggering and more.
It has been serviced and is fully working. Brand new battery was fitted so it's ready for some 40 more years of fat beats.
As it often is the case with such a drum machine you may experience double triggering with the pads but shouldn't be an issue.
specs: * 36 rythms with 5 variations each = 180 patterns * 5x Fill, 5x Break and 2 solos per rythm = 432 patterns * 44 12 bit drums samples * 30 pads * 36 user rythm with 180 possible patterns (36 main patterns, 36 fills, 36 breaks, 36 solo 2 and 36 solo 4) * up tpo 32 bars pattern and resolution up to 1/64 * 4 part analog synth engine with 5 tracks sequencer * 66 analog instrument sounds * Realtime or step by step recording * independant volume for each instrument, saved per pattern * global or per pattern tempo * sequencer mode (36 sequences max) * stereo output * headphone output * optional: 24 notes keyboard * optional: 8 individual outputs * optional: trigger and tape backup (fitted in this unit) * optional: MIDI"
Thank you fwor watching.
My name is Meska of the statik collective . I've been making mostly 'dark and expérimental' music for more than ten years now, i'v learn so much online, now it's time for me to share my knoledge, my exploration and this channel is a place to talk about the tools, sound design and techniques to make music with.
