"Not affected by the red glue problem, but we've completely removed it just in case. Just serviced, all sliders cleaned & everything is working fine, including the aftertouch, buttons, etc. Original user manuals included. 220V version."
"For a few years now, Berlin’s Superbooth show has been a focal point for music technology gear announcements, but the 2025 iteration took this to another level. The sheer volume and variety of new music making gear on display in and around the FEZ event space was beyond anything we’ve seen in previous years.
MusicRadar was on the ground to test everything we could get our hands on. As the show drew to a close Managing Editor Si Truss, Reviews Editor Simon Arblaster and Tech Channel Editor Matt Mullen found a quiet corner in the woods to sit down for a roundtable (sans table) discussion about their highlights from the 2025 Superbooth show floor."
"Just got back from this year´s Superbooth in Berlin. Here are some of our highlights.
Frap Tools just might have dropped the polysynth of the year. Intellijel surprised us with a stunning desktop mixer. Haken Audio & La Voix Du Luthier’s resonator turns any synth into an acoustic instrument—and Korg’s Phase 8 is finally production-ready. Superbooth 2025 came through!”
Interesting bits and pieces:
00:07 Intellijel
02:01 Frap Tools
03:59 Haken Audio & La Voix Du Luthier
06:45 Korg
08:55 Make Noise
10:40 Polyend"

"Just seeing and touching this marvel has already justified going to Superbooth 2025. Two huge hardware editors that show the guts of ANX and FMX, two of the synthesis systems available in Montage M.
You can imagine the feeling of being in front of such a display of controls to edit a synth with the power of Montage. PG-Anx and PG-Fmx aesthetically rival the huge cabinets of the first experimental hand-built synthesizers.
The front end of the Montage M, with its dual display and faders, encoders, and pushbuttons, is itself an excellent solution for sound creation. And the software version of the Montage M (ESP) can also be used as a keyboard editor for those who prefer it. But there is no doubt that being in front of these monstrous panels is irreplaceable.
In case anyone is tempted to purchase them: as you can imagine, it is not Yamaha's intention to market them. Too bad!"
"Tiptop Audio return to Superbooth for another year, bringing with them a multitude of new modules and updates that join their ranges of Buchla recreations and 200 Series."
