Retroaktiv Synthesizers PG-2K Patch Generator Demo - Strings Category
video upload by Retroaktiv Synthesizers
"Here's a short demo showing some of the sounds the PG-2K's Patch Generator can generate at the press of a button. Here, we're demo'ing the "strings" category. There are over 20 more categories to choose from, and they all generate musically useful patches. Having a Retroaktiv controller is like having an infinite number of new sounds for your synth."
You can find additional PG-2K demos here.

Yamaha DX5 FM synthesizer + 3 ROM & Xtras “Collector’s Grade” SN 1001

via this auction
"Very early serial number #1001! Maybe the first one made???any experts here. I’ve done some research on how Yamaha stamped their synths back in the 80s…so far no luck. Did they start with 0001 or 1001? [a few have been captured here, all start with 1 or 2]
Up for bid is the 1985 Yamaha DX5 in excellent condition. Close to “near mint” condition and probably one of the cleanest that you can find. This comes with the original receipt from the first owner who bought it in 10-5-1985 for $2889!
Unit shows just a few small nicks on the side panels and scratches in the bottom as seen in the photos. Other than that this is in amazing condition. Fully functional, tested and works as designed. All controls works!
It includes:
Original detachable music sheet stand
Sustain pedal
Manual
XLR cable
3 ROM cartridges
Orig power cord"

SIEL DK-700 + Arduino TouchOSC Controller

Video in the listing previously posted here.
"A super rare DK-700, the Siel flagship synthesizer released in 1986, equipped with a DIY Arduino interface to control all the synth parameters in real-time using TouchOSC on Android/iPad. The machine has been recently serviced by a professional technician and actually looks and sounds great.
Released in 1986, the DK-700 is the best and last synthesizer produced by the Italian SIEL right before the joint-venture with Roland Corporation and its subsequent turning into Roland Europe. The DK-700 has been on the market for less than one year so only few hundreds units were sold and this inspiring synthesizer never received the love it actually deserved.

"The Virus Rack XL packs the entire Virus C into a single-unit rack-module for those of you who don't need built-in hands-on access. Limited in knobs, buttons and LEDs - but that's all. The Rack XL has all the same features and functions of the Virus C and KC versions. It even has front and rear audio inputs to process external audio through its effects, vocoder, filters, etc."

"This is a DIY project based off of FundamentalFrequency. It is similar to the Teenage Engineering OP-1.
An overview of the project can be seen here: [video above]
This was built by myself using a Raspberry Pi 4, 4GB w/64GB uSD card. It features the Tracktion Engine for its main software. All keys, encoders, etc. work and are housed in a custom 3D printed and laser cut acrylic case. Made some custom laser printed labels of which the "stop" key is rubbing off. I also compiled a custom version of the software where I added a Shutdown option to the settings menu which issues a proper shutdown command to the Raspberry Pi (avoids data loss and uSD card corruption). Also created custom Python scrips to save and load sessions. Also added on-screen keyboard to use with naming and loading the sessions. Works great with the touchscreen.
Some things this can do:
Tracks Screen
Plugins Screen
Drum Sampler
Step Sequencer
Drum Programming
Sampler
Bass Sequencing
Clip Cut/Paste
4OSC Synth
Adding Effects
Recording
Editing, Loop Controls, Saving, and Track Addition/Deletion
Mixer Overview
Pitch Bend
Modifiers
List of hardware included:
Raspberry Pi 4, 4GB
64 GB microSD card
45 keyboard keys (serving has synth/MIDI keyboard), controlled via a Teensy microcontroller
Hyperpixel 4 touchscreen (4")
Power supply
This thing works great and is really cool to create music with. Comes loaded with a bunch of samples and instruments."
