Bad Gear - He might be BIASED

video upload by AudioPilz

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. There are these unfounded rumors that this show is not actually about Bad Gear, that I just pick random stuff I want to make music with and let clueless online trolls do their magic.

This is - of course - a steaming pile of horse dung and I just recently failed to find enough hate on, for example, the Access Virus B, Novation Drumstation and Dreadbox Typhon.

However, today we are going to talk about Digitakt II and as this particular unit was sent over by Elektron as a long term loan even they must be aware of the fact that late 80s polyphony, partial physics workflow and a lack of essential hipster features make for some juicy online controversy.

"Black Corporation Deckard's Dream 8 voice analog polysynthesizer. It's in great shape and fully functional. Missing one fader slider tip (should be a cheap easy replacement). Includes external psu. This is a fantastic sounding rack synth."

"This is a beautiful P5 rev3.3 with full midi and expanded patch memory. I had this serviced about 2 years ago by Greg Montalbano in the bay area of California. This synth sounds as good as it looks and works perfectly. The only cosmetic flaws are very minimal and circled in red in the photos. The first flaw is 2 little indentions is the wood on the rear top right corner. The second cosmetic flaw is the badge on the front left is starting to delaminate. I don’t know if it’s just a protective film that peels off or what, I never wanted to find out haha. As far as audio you can find a track I made using this P5 for every sound except the field recordings of birds on SoundCloud by searching ‘Rallycars and Dinosaurs’ the song name is ‘August’."

SERGE Modular Synthesizer MANTRA II Panel

video upload by fonitronik

"Sitting at the garden table playing the SERGE Modular/R*S MANTRA II panel. It is great what one can do with just one panel. One of the great things of the new slopes (GTO, GTS) is that they are VERY stable. And everything is exactly in tune after turning it on again after a few days. You will love it."
