"This EML 101 is fully serviced by in-house technicians, fully functional and in great condition. It sounds awesome.
The ElectroComp 101 is the successor to the rare ElectroComp 100 from Electronic Music Laboratories (EML), a small synthesizer company based out of Connecticut in the USA. Like the ARP 2600, the 101 is a patchable (1/4'' patch cords) semi-modular synth with a pre-wired voice path that can be over-ridden via patching. But unlike the ARP (or MiniMoog for that matter), the 101 has as many as four oscillators (two of which can go sub-sonic, for use as LFOs). The 101 is also Duophonic so you can play up to two notes at once. Another major distinction was that unlike Moog and ARP, who used transistors that would tend to drift out of tune under various operating temperatures, EML used op amps which proved to be far more stable and reliable.
Other onboard features include a voltage controlled 12 dB/oct multi-mode filter with resonance, two envelope generators, ring/amplitude modulator, noise, and sample-and-hold (they call this the "Sampler"). In addition, the 101 makes no distinction between control voltage and audio paths allowing just about any source to be patched to any control or audio input in any order. The 101 could easily be closed, secured and carried inside its wood casing.
This synthesizer is fantastic. It's warm, punchy, powerful and has lot of bite not to mention a sound that sets it apart from its contemporaries and, for that matter, any other synth."
An ambient track created using a Korg Radias. I recorded this one in two takes. One take for the Radias (synth + drums) and one take for guitar. I used Logic's built in amp sims for my guitar tone.

An ambient / downtempo track created with a Korg EMX-1 and a Korg Radias. For this track, the EMX-1 is handling all the synth and drum parts. I'm running the EMX-1 through the input of the Radias to apply addition effects.

"I've finally got my hands on an original Roland TR909 and have put it together with the Behringer RD-9 and the Roland Boutique TR-09.
For me, they all have their place, TR09 is great little digital portable version, the RD-9 is a big robust analog performance tool, and the TR909 is there for the glamour... plus it does sound most like itself!"

A live synthesizer jam performed entirely on the Teenage Engineering OP-XY.
The OP-Z was perhaps my biggest "so close, but not close enough" piece of gear from the last few years. Its sequencer and performability and portability were great, but the build quality was terrible was terrible (of my unit, anyway) and the internal synths and effects weren't for me. I was exactly that person who wanted the upgraded, more robust version of the OP-Z.
And we got it. Yes, I recognize the price is high. But so far I am very, very happy with the OP-XY and what it does. It's sturdy, it feels great, its synths and samplers sound great, its effects are great, its sequencer and arranger are powerful, its Punch-In FX are useful.
And most importantly of all, it's fun. When I'm using it, I'm having fun.
Considering you can get an absolutely superb portable groovebox in the Tracker Mini for far less money, it's hard to recommend unless you're the type (like me) who just loves grooveboxes. But I'm loving my time with it so far.
Thanks for listening.
Performed and recorded live to a stereo output, with EQ, compression, and limiting on the master.
"I resurrected an old modular percussion synth configuration and paired it with the DFAM for some fun.
The DFAM is running thru the OTO BIM for a bit of delay, and everything is mixed using the Octatrack, and then thru the Analog Heat MKII.
A simple, but effective setup.
------
Patch/Routing Notes:
I have the modbase09 running thru the HN TriTone for some EQ'ing, and out individually to the OT.
All the other modules are mixed in the case using the Erica Drum Mixer, and then filtered thru zZzOrb, before going out to another thru channel on the OT.
The DFAM/BIM are also on a separate thru track on the OT."
"Quick jam using the Moog Mother 32 for the lead and bass sounds. Dave Smith Tempest analog drum machine on the drums, UDO Super 6 for some background pads, and Strymon Bigsky Mx Reverb on everything."
