Roland MSQ-700 | the most quirky and creative sequencer ever made
video upload by Espen Kraft
"The Roland MSQ-700 Midi sequencer has a very quirky quantization. Set the quantize to 16ths or 8ths and what comes out is chopped, moved around and definitely not what you'd expect. And that is a beautiful way of creating something new. I love this about the MSQ-700. Primitive AI quantize.
Howard Jones used the MSQ-700 for a lot of his album "Dream Into Action" and you can check out this interview here for more of his thoughts: https://www.muzines.co.uk/articles/sy..."

Original Vintage Minimoog Meticulously Refurbished by Tone Tweakers
video upload by tonetweakers
"Here we are systematically testing the original vintage Minimoog synthesizer we just meticulously refurbished. After one or two tiny adjustments, it’ll be ready to sell and will be posted to our website. Please use the contact form there to get in touch if you’re interested in owning one of the best minimoogs money can buy. It will leave here working flawlessly and will be packed to arrive intact, no bs or excuses typical of most sellers vintage synth sales. This instrument was working relatively well when we got it, but we spent close to 30 hours rebuilding it to make it better than others you may fine. So yes, it’ll be more costly than lesser examples, but you get what you pay for.
Thanks for watching!

Vermona '14 Analog synthesizer (O-124/222)

"This item has been carefully examined and is covered by Kraft Music's 45-Day guarantee but original manufacturer's warranty does not apply. It may show signs of use and handling but is guaranteed to function as new. Take advantage of this great deal from Kraft Music today!
With the completion of the '14 Analogsynthesizer, a long-fostered Vermona dream comes true: the design and realization of an uncompromising synthesizer for instrumentalists.
Marriage of ergonomics and sound
For Vermona, 'expressive play' requires a balanced relationship between performance virtuosity and sound design. In the '14 Analogsynthesizer, these factors come together as equals: keyboard, pitch and modulation wheels are incomplete without the other controls and switches on the panel, which offer direct access to each individual sound-shaping parameter of the synthesis engine.
The '14 Analogsynthesizer is perfectly suited for distinctive solo and bass sounds, including dynamic and subtle sonic variations that are completely under your control at any time."

Logan String Melody mk1

"This is a vintage string machine, around 50 years old, so be realistic about its technical condition and its appearance.
Known issues:
* High noise floor.
*One key sticks on full sustain.
*The "Orchestra" button does not stick when pressed in.
* The wooden top cover that (when opened) expose the electronics are missing a screw.
It needs some service to perform as new but it also works as is. Plug n play."

Roland SH-2 Synthesizer w/ Mods
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"It's been modded without any physical defects to the body.
Mods:
1. 120v - for use in USA without a transformer
2. Osc Sync - Use the bender switch (set to off) to sync the oscillators. Sounds lovely
3. Filter Cutoff control by CV - Audio In jack has been repurposed to accept CV signal to control the cutoff frequency. Works perfect with my CV sequencers. Love this mod!
Truly a "one of a kind" SH-2 that has that classic Roland sound, but with added features that sets it apart from other SH-2s out there."

FIVE MINUTES WITH The Yamaha CS01 Battery Powered Monosynth
video upload by sonicstate
"Chris from @BOOelectric (Battery Operated Orchestra) treats us to some quality time with the Yamaha CS01 - a much loved battery powered monosynth that was a first synth for many budding synthesists.
Chris has modified one of his two CS synths, adding a resonance modification to the 2 Pole Low pass filter. Its not pleasant, but it works....
The CS01 was also recently immortalized in software by Babyaudio.com as the BA-01.
For which incidentally, we have a 15% off code - use ST2023 at checkout"
