Rare opportunity to own one of a kind synthesizer keyboard.
This is the Behringer Kobol Keyboard. There's a label in the back showing this to be an "Engineer Sample".
All controls and keys seem to be working. Although given this is not a production model, there could be quirks.
The Pitch and Mod wheels light up when activated. The LED bar changes when knobs are turned.
I had tested only the audio outputs - headphones, main out, and amp out. Other connections and USB are untested.
Good overall physical condition, but there are very visible scratches and dings and dents on the panel, as shown in the photos.
The back stand has 3 positions for tilt adjustment."
The AI028 uses the new SSI2190 PROCIRCUIT™ 6-INTO-1 VOLTAGE CONTROLLED MIXER* ICs to create a 6 in, 6 out Voltage Controlled Matrix Mixer. Each column of jack nodes is a VCA input that will amplify the input from the left to the output on the bottom from silent 0V to full unity volume at 5V. The inputs and VCA circuits will accept Audio and CV signals. For those who want to manually control voltage, a 5V output is present in the lower left that, with a passive attenuator, can be used to manually control the volume of a node. While currently in manufacture, due to the Lunar New Year, it is temporarily on hold and is expected to ship in February or March. Presales are now open on https://aisynthesis.com/product/ai028-voltage-controlled-matrix-mixer and will be shipped on a first come/first served basis.
“In the year 2000, I was in college and obsessed with modular synths, but could barely afford to eat. I knew it was possible to build your own synth, but there wasn’t anyone, or anywhere to turn to for advice. In the past decade, much more information has been published online, and in 2013 I started down my path to DIY modular. Even with all of the information online, there still lacked a single, simple, comprehensive guide for those looking to build their own synthesizer. I want AI Synthesis to be that guide. Prior to building my own synth, I was a dreamer, after building my modular, I felt I had awoken. I want to help others do the same.”

In addition to providing step by step build instructions, schematics, and circuit explanations, the site also includes a guide for getting started in modular synthesis, and a series of DIY Guides, with information regarding how Resistors actually work, and how to integrate a $26 scope into your Eurorack system."
"When I heard of Mr. Howard's patches, I knew I couldn't delay, I needed to have them. Here you are listening to two of his single patches combined into multi setting: SY FIVE and ARP MEMORY.
I've come to accept that my journey into creating my own patches for the Summit may be far fetched. I am honored and privileged that there are those who understand this beautiful machine, well enough that I can enjoy and get lost playing them. It truly is an instrument that will stand the test of time, one to play and one to learn
You can listen to his patch creation 'Meridian' here:"
100 Ambient and Cinematic presets for all electronic productions. Meridian was inspired by a love of science fiction movies, music, games and stories. The presets include many immersive pads that make extensive use of the modulation features of Summit plus a wide range of modern and classic synths, keys and FX.
Novation Summit V2.2
Please note many of the patches make use of the Summit’s dual filter and will not work on the Novation Peak.
The video and audio demos contain presets played live and recorded direct from the Novation Summit. All sounds are from Meridian and only a light limiter has been used for the demos

"Here we have a Ring Mod Delay patch with Atlantix, Sealegs, Ring Mod 1U and Aux Mix 1U. With this combination, the feedback from the delay evolves through the ring modulator, causing the echoes to morph with each repeat. It can produce some wild results.
Patch notes:
• Dry Signal - Atlantix Out / Aux Mix CH1 / Main Out
• Delay Signal - Aux Mix Aux Out / Ring Mod X / Sealegs Delay (100% wet mix)/ Aux Mix CH2
• Use Aux Mix CH2 Aux Out to create the feedback loop
• Atlantix VCO B Sine out from MOD Y to Ring Mod Y
• VCO B's pitch can be static, track with VCO A or modulated (for example with Sample & Hold). This will effect the way the timbre of the delay."
"The Korg DVP-1 was released in the early 1980's. It consisted of a Vocoder with its own internal waveforms, a five part Harmonizer, a Pitch-shifter and an Internal Synth. The Vocoder is very intelligible. While the Harmonizer does not sound super realistic, it has its own unique effect. It has five polyphonic voices, four with chorus on, unison mode and 64 memory patches to store your settings."
