Pics of the inside below.
"Up for sale is an extremely nice clone of the RSF kobol expander 1 and an original RSF kobol expander 2. The clone is made with original SSM chips for the filter and envelopes and original ua726 for the oscillators. I was able to tune it up so that the knobs match my original expander exactly and it now sounds 100 percent identical. It also runs off of 18 volts and is even slimmer than the original. This expander alone would make a great travel synth.
I had plans to make new faceplates and build a travel case for these guys but I have too many projects going on right now. It’s a great oppurtunity to get these two for a bit cheaper than what they have gone for in the past. The expander 1 is simply the best bass synth ever. Super snappy and great for leads as well. The behringer and moslab clone both missed the mark in my opinion. There’s something very special about the wave shaping of the original and I was amazed that I got the clone to imitate this behavior exactly. The ringmod on the expander 2 is really interesting/ dirty pairs well with the wave shaping. Be careful with purchasing kobols as there are clones out there. Always ask for inside shots of the units. I A dead give away is usually the switches.
The expander 1 is in perfect condition. The expander 2 has a slight dent on the corner that was not noricable when racked and the faceplate has a few scrapes. Both are in excellent working order with no scratchy pots or anything."

"Sorry about that; especially the recording the sound with my phone part. If I get bored – and I get bored easily, if you were wonderinig while watching this stupid video. Again sorry. There is just one other clip of the MFB 512, far as I know, it lasts 3 seconds and sounds great and just better in every respect. Except the special FX, maybe. If this doesn't sell (on Reverb), I'll make a proper video. With real explosions and stuff, and a love story sub plot line and Indiana Jones. A costume drama. Well, a drama for sure. Cheers!"

"This seems to be in pretty very good condition, switches knobs switch- and knobable and then do things, most of the time, sounds fantastic (eh though not so much in my stupid yt video, unfortunately, that I've linked to, that's my phone's little no good mic — go check the other 512 clip, that one's way better).
So, great, and "great price, I've seen them go for a lot more!"
Yes, you may have, BUT here's the but, but, it's not so big a but, all is probably im Ordnung, but since you never know, I don't, I never know anything:
A) these have Trigger In for syncing, no MIIDI (which I thought it had and is the reason for selling), and I have nothing to check that with atm and
B) I've tried for an hour a little less but I couldn't tell you how to replace those (very nice, I think) presets with your own programmed patterns. You can definitely do something with that left know, something sequency, but I haven't figured it out yet, and I may never, you figure it out, you're smarter than me I know.
Both things I'm educatedly guessing are highly likely fine, but since I can't tell for sure I won't tell you for sure."

PAIA 5700P Drum Synth

"Very cool ultra rare 4 voice drum synth. Recently serviced and fully functional. It can be triggered with a piezo style drum trigger (PAIA had these rubbery hockey-puck looking triggers) or an audio input (I have been triggering it with rim shot samples from my MPC1000). Sounds amazing, very fine tunable."

FREE! Melbourne Instruments NINA Preset Pack!
video upload by The Unperson
"I’m excited to share a new project I’ve been working on—a collection of presets for Melbourne Instruments' Nina synthesizer. I love making sound packs, and this was a great opportunity to dive into Nina and see how far I could push it. I’m not a big keyboard player, so my focus was on letting the synthesizer take centre stage, pulling out some weird and wonderful sounds along the way.
The preset pack is available as a free download here:

Arcaico Murena Stereo VCF/VCA mixer #modularsynthesizer #electronicmusic #eurorack
video upload by Arcaico Instruments
"The new Arcaico module made in collaboration with Andrea Di Giorgio: MURENA!
Murena was born from the need of a creature that would put together our sonic search for the typical Archaic sound, a touch of unpredictability and the possibility of turning the module inside out in a thousand ways by patching it even on itself. All while managing to meet an extremely low and affordable price so that it is affordable for everyone.
In 26hp we have a 6-channel mixer, each with distorting vca, divided into two groups of 3. Each group ends, as desired, in a self-oscillating violent filter, then in a violent distortion or directly to the mix where the two groups can be used as a stereo pair or modulated in A-B crossfade. Every parameter is fully manageable either from the panel or with bipolar cvs for maximum musician creativity.
Get ready to destroy your sounds under the bite of the MURENA (moray eel)."
Bad Gear - The END of Volcas
video upload by AudioPilz
"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world’s most-hated audio tools. Volcas are awesome: the original meme synths that kicked off an ongoing trend of miniaturization in music technology and turned countless promising musicians into irredeemable gear addicts.
However, everything must come to an end, so today we are going to talk about Volca Sample New Generation. You might be surprised that my original Volca Sampler - although prominently featured on this channel - never actually received the Bad Gear treatment, that this is the very last member of the existing Volca family to be reviewed here and let’s discuss why I don’t think there’s ever going to be another Volca as we know it.
Volca Sample is not a sampler
