SN 691 via this listing

"Swedish made electric tube/valve organ from the 60s in great condition. Portable with a cover that can hold the legs, original tele cable and the music stand.

All original tubes are working and it tunes up nicely.

Same manufacturer as the Tubon keytar but this has full polyphony a optically actuated volume knee bar and a lot more sound options.

It is like a museum piece but with a great sound."

Model 77 Dual Layer Synth Softube NO TALKING SOUNDS DEMO

NO TALKING SOUNDS DEMO video upload by Andrew G Dugros





Details via Plugin Boutique & Softube:

The most expressive synth of its time, redesigned.

The authentic sound, interactions, and performance of three famed Japanese hardware units from 1977
A redesigned, intuitive new interface for an improved and modern workflow
Three versions included: the instrument, seven modules for Modular, and two modules for Amp Room
Model 77 Dual Layer Synth gives you one of the most influential sounds of our time. It is the iconic sound of Blade Runner, Chariots of Fire, Billie Jean, Africa, and Human Nature — among countless others. Softube modeled and accurately articulated every detail of the circuits of three legendarily expressive Japanese synthesizers from 1977 and put them in one user-friendly plug-in. The sound, interaction, and performance remain as close to the hardware as possible, while the complex interfaces of the original instruments are enhanced with an intuitive redesign. Finally, your most-coveted synth has the workflow you deserve.

The Art of Rock & Roll Science

Softube's reputation for creating tools that enhance workflow and offer superior sound quality is rock solid. Their partnerships with premium brands like Tube-Tech, Solid State Logic, Chandler Limited, Weiss Engineering, and Trident have spanned decades.

They built Model 77 Dual Layer Synth on this legacy of passion, expert modeling, and attention to detail. Because to create synth plug-ins that innovate and elevate, you have to have heart, soul, and Rock & Roll Science.

Time for a redesign

When designing Model 77, Softube took great care to create a more efficient user interface that makes the plug-in easier to navigate. Two layers are accessible directly from the front panel, but the focus stays on one layer at a time. This improvement enables you to adjust your sound quickly and confidently. Softube also redesigned the position of the sections to communicate the instrument's proper signal flow. A change that helps facilitate sound design. Now, the Ring Mod section on the interface corresponds to its location in the signal flow. The balance slider is between the upper and lower layers so that you can self-assuredly move between the layers while adjusting
parameters for each layer.

PlantsSystem-StopContinue

"'StopContinue' was composed using only the Prophet-5 and Poly-Sequencer. All the sounds, including the drums and the upper sounds, are Prophet-5. The Poly-Sequencer was overdubbed using the trigger signal from Doepfer's MSY-2. The multi-track recorder was Roland's VS-1880."

Minimalism for Modular #2: Ann Southam's "Rivers"

video upload by Electrum Modular

"I’ve been playing Ann Southam’s exquisite pieces on the piano for a few months, and have been discovering lots of ideas in them that could be applied to a modular system.

This video is also a tribute to a composer who should be a household name like Steve Reich, Philip Glass, and Terry Riley.
