Thank you for watching.
My name is Meska of the statik collective . I've been making mostly "dark and expérimental" music for more than ten years now, i'v learn so much online, now it's time for me to share my knoledge, my exploration and this channel is a place to talk about the tools, sound design and techniques to make music with.
You can stream my albums and EPs at https://statikwave.bandcamp.com/
If you'd like to support the channel consider buying music from bandcamp ;)

What the Nord Lead could have looked like in black.
"Here‘s something different—a Nord Lead 2X painted black. The previous owner painted it and also had tape over a number of the the buttons and lights, hence there is some residue you can see in the photos. Despite how it looks, it appears to work perfectly other than two minor issues: one of the keys is higher than the others (see pics) but still works fine, and the ”C” button sometimes sticks when pressed in and has to be pressed several times to pop out. Works perfectly for me as a sound module, and I kind of dig the matte black finish, but please review the pics and description carefully. Includes power cable."
I don't think I ever noticed the 2X had a detachable power cord. The original Nord Lead had a permanently attached grey power cord.

Cactus Desert Drums Vintage Digital/Analog Drum Synthesizer

You can find demos in previous posts here.
"Excellent condition and amazing example of a very rare drum synth from the early 80s. Even if you can find one, they aren't all created equal as they were customizable with a potential for 10 independent drum tone generators, some digital, and some analog.
This one has 9/10 possible modules and includes:
Bass Kick
Snare
Toms (3)
Crash
Ride
HHat
Synth (tone generator)
I control this with an Arturia Beat Step and it works super well. There are tons of knobs for tweaking filters, noise, pitch, decays, and more. It's a rare beast and makes super fat and unique sounds.
Only note:
The hhat track produce a very faint high pitch tone that seems to be associated with the pitch control knobs, so when using those tracks I've had to apply a little noise reduction (brusfri gets rid of it nice and easy). I'm sure this is fixable/serviceable, but I haven't had the need to do it. For all I know, they all do this!
Nice cosmetic condition. Minor scratching on the wood panels and minor imperfections commensurate with age."

"Extremely rare late 70s Star Instruments Percussion Synthesizer. Complete and in working condition. Tested all functions and it's all working. Foam pads however have hardened due to age and are cracked - need replacement. In its current state I was able to trigger all 12 pad zones and can confirm it's working. LFO and ring modulator sections working. White noise and pink noise working. Resonance slider is missing will need to be replaced. All other sliders operating. Not many of these around - amazing and unique filters and effects. Restore this rare beauty for optimal performance! No reserve."

BMC114 Diode Break Shaper

"New waveshaper module. PCBs are available for DIY builders. Links to documentation, mp3 sound samples and purchasing info are found at:
https://www.bartonmusicalcircuits.com..."
BMC114 Diode Break Shaper Schematic Walkthrough
"This module splits a waveform into 5 bands of voltage ranges and then mixes those bands together with attenuverters. The break points between bands can be controlled with external CV. This allows for harmonically complex outputs that remind me of strings and woodwinds.
Compatible with 12V or 15V systems. The Pots are PCB mounted, but all jacks are off-board."
