"Nice example for the Roland collector. Previous battery leakage was neutralized with vinegar and baking soda treatments. Some paint damage at the bottom. Very clean on faceplate area. Includes original soft case, box, styrofoam inserts, manuals, and brochures."
"I can't figure out how to sync the TR6s to the little compact synths so I went old school and tempo synced like a vinyl DJ :D
These little Aira synths are incredibly inspiring and fun to use. I (almost) feel like coming out of retirement to do some live work (But I won't )
"Here’s Samarkanda from XAOC Devices which is a real powerhouse, monster (insert other big buzz words) delay and looper in a whopping 42hp Eurorack module. Each channel offers from 0.5ms up to 15 seconds of delay or looping, with various behaviours, reverse options, lots of CV modulation and you have options to link channels to extend up to 60 seconds of buffer time. Whether working in quad series or parallel chains, create ping pongs, short delay chorus, flanger or karplus strong pitch tracking resonators there’s truly LOADS of ways to use this."

"A piece created using monome norns shield, grid, and @teenageengineering OP‑1 field. It’s an ambient work where melodic drone textures blend with noise.
On the Norns Shield, I launch the 'sines' engine and perform by adding and removing layers via Grid. The output is processed through @gfisys SPECULAR TEMPUS for reverb and delay.
On the OP‑1 field, I apply bit‑reduction with the TERMINAL effect and use @HologramElectronics MICROCOSM for looping and additional reverb."
"Here's a resonant bass patch on the Ample Synthesizer, where cutoff is being modulated via the touch pad IG, where values are pre-set to certain levels. The touch pads can control any parameter 'pinned' to them.
Check out our Ample Playlist for more demonstrations of this amazingly versatile synth!"
"While I like the machine , I feel the variphrase ‘sounds’ better on VP9000 (despite its lack of synth functionality)
Editing samples is also much easier on 9000.
