"This is an early Arp Axxe With the Moog Filter.
I hate this f##king POS. This thing is built like crap. The parts-quality is abysmal and it's almost impossible to get it working 100% correctly even after a major professional overhaul and constant continual servicing. I first purchased this non-working with hopes to fully restore it and have a cool piece of USA-made synth history. Well, after replacing all the worn slider pots and all the typically suspect parts like the self-destructing tantalum capacitors... it sorta worked. Brought it to a very brilliant electrical engineer and he got it mostly working... but it still had issues and wouldn't fully calibrate.... brought it to another synthesizer technician that got it mostly working, but then I breathed on it wrong one day and it had to go back to him... It seems to be 99% working properly, but I still can't fully tell... I'm not sure how to get the S&H to work on the filter like any other 70s synth, but maybe it's just me, or maybe this synth doesn't work that way. Anyway I have to assume that if you are an Arp fan that you are emotionally damaged or at the very least a little bit stupid. This thing is my albatross, I'm into it for WAY more than it's worth and at this point you buying it is saving me from just throwing into a bon fire. Other than all that it's in surprisingly good condition and would look nice next to your other, better-designed and better-built synths of the era. Listing for the lowest price I can muster, probably less that others of the same condition and year. I dunno, maybe you're a masochist. Good luck, you'll need it."

"My private collection of dreamy sounds dedicated to ASM Hydrasynth. I've always loved the sound of swinging long pads and warm arps. ASM Hydrasynth is a wonderful instrument for creating such sounds. I decided to create the most beautiful dreamy sounds using its huge possibilities. I really like ASM Hydrasynth for its functionality and sound. With this soundset, you can take your instrument to the next level.

Cyclon Ltd. ME Analog Synthesizer
video upload by Chris Chrome
"80er Jahre DIY Synthesizer, Projekt"
Note there are two videos in the playlist above that appear to be the same. Including both in case one is removed. Use the player controls to skip to the next video if the first disappears. I also captured a few screenshots below. Click on them to zoom in. That out of the way, if anyone has any additional info feel free to leave a comment. This is the first post to feature Cyclon Ltd on the site. It appears to be a prototype and/or DIY, but who knows... If you know, leave a comment. Note the center Cyclon appears to be CYCCON, but you can see elsewhere on the synth it is Cyclon.
Check out the New Old label for other rare and older synths making their first featured on the site.
Check out the Exclusive label for posts featuring the rare of the rare. There is of course some overlap.
