This Is A Test- Mixtur IV eurorack module prototype - passive intermodulation mixer
video upload by Mountainking Electronics
"This is the Mixtur IV eurorack module prototype. This is the fourth design in my Mixtur series. The modules in this series all share commons traits, mainly that they all allow the music engineer to take various audio and cv signals and combine them through intermodulation (with various characteristics of each signal altering various characteristics of the other signals in ways that are often difficult to predict) and that they are all (so far) passive designs.
The name of this series, as well as some of inspiration for it's designs, come from Karlheinz Stockhausen's music and musical ideology, but the main vision for these modules is to allow the music engineer to create new sounds from old sounds and complex motion by combining simple, even static, signals.
The circuit designs come from visual thoughts, images, that are then translated into electronic components and then arranged using symmetry, taking two mirror images and combining them. These circuits are then prototyped without any breadboard experimentation and so their outcome/functionality is always, to some degree, unpredictable, allowing the designer to experience some of the "unknown-ness" of the modules that the users of the modules experience.
If you are interested in purchasing a Mixtur IV module or any other module from the Mixtur series, or if you have any questions please let me know:

Thank you,

Synton Fenix 1 - First owner, only 75 made - 1999

via this auction
"Yes, an original Synton Fenix 1, very seldom seen for sale as there were only 75 made and people that own one tend to hold on to them as they are truly unique both in sound and design.
Made by the original Synton Team (Marc Paping and Bert Vermeulen) as they wished to create their ultimate compact modular synthesizer, and they succeeded. The sound is unique and versatile, knobs have a great feel and layout is very well thought-out.
This synth is sold by its original owner and has never been gigged. Home studio use only. Visual state is excellent, the potmeters however can use a cleaning as they are a bit crackling. The unit has never been opened nor has any attempt been made to clean the pots as to preserve the original state."

Oberheim OB-8

via this auction
"This Oberheim OB8 was purchased locally in Austin, Texas and received a full service from Switched On Austin last year. Service performed included recapping, cleaning pots and full calibration/tuning.
This OB8 comes with MIDI.
A very nice stardust vinyl cover with Oberheim logo is included.
While under my care, this instrument has not been idle - it gets powered up and used regularly.
All pots are dead silent and smooth to turn - all buttons light up and respond instantly - outputs are silent and hold cables solidly in place without jiggling. Power supply housing holds power cable tightly in place.
Original keyboard is spotless, responsive.
Pitch and mod benders are sturdy with proper resistance and feel.
A few stray scratches here and there - overall, an extremely clean face and working surface.
Back panel has no warping, melting, discoloration, smearing or other nasty stuff you might see on a vintage synth.
Original wood panels are smooth and have retained their natural color and character.
Lastly, the sound is just as strong, vivid and dynamic as one would expect from an Oberheim.
In short, this is a beautiful instrument in outstanding condition that will give its new owner several years of trouble-free use.
One thing to note - the original presets were loaded when the service was done last year, but I have written over most of them with various pads I needed for a project. They'll still be there at the time of purchase.
How did I arrive at the price? I am not a collector - I am a professional artist and do not "flip" instruments. I paid $5000 for this instrument in Dec of 2020 right here on Reverb and I paid for $1000 worth of service months later - I think $5995 is fair and probably the best price on Reverb. I have used this synth often and recorded what I needed from it. It's always been a joy to own and use. It's simply time to move on to my next project and make room in my studio for other gear."

Vintage synth vibes with upcoming KORG oscillator plugin

"In this sound example we’re testing our upcoming KORG plugin further: this time it’s showing a new quality reduction feature, which sounds incredible when paired with our Stator tape wobble simulation effect"
Roland SH-4d // in-depth oscillator models, mod matrix, & How to Make the Hoover Patch in 5 Steps
video upload by Starsky Carr
1st video in the user playlist here. Additional Roland SH-4d demos here.
"Tutorial demoing what each of the SH-4d Oscillator models can do, and more importantly what they can sound like because that's not available from the manual - :)
What's interesting here is that the mod matrix options change per model. For example, some have 2 slots, others have 4 and the wavetable oscillator has an additional envelope to auto play through the wavetable shapes, and this becomes available in the mod matrix as a source for all the destinations.
In other words, the basic sound engine is very simple, like the vintage units, but you can go more complex if thats your thing."
How to Make the Hoover Patch in just 5 Steps

"Try this on any synth but the @rolandglobal SH4d had got an Alpha Juno style sawtooth with PWM.. so thought I'd give it a go!...turns out it quite simple :)"
