"This is certainly one of the best, if not the best sounding synth I have ever owned, but I just put a lot of money into getting it back in tip top shape and decided its time to modernize my gear.

This P5 has been worked on by DFX and Analog Lab:

Analog Lab:

Replaced main ribbon cable

Key contacts cleaned and adjusted

Reseated power connectors

Smoothing caps replaced and repaired

DFX:

New power cable installed

New pots installed where needed

Wood side panel repair

Decoupling capacitors replaced

So...

There it is, quite a bit of work to get this thing back on line and now its set for years of use. All voice chips are in great shape too, which is probably the most important part of the entire synth since those are practically irreplaceable. While I have enjoyed having such a neat piece of gear around, the costs to repair it caught up to me and I think it belongs with someone who can continue to take care of it, whether that means having a good tech of their own or being able to do maintenance themselves when it needs it.

As for now, it is in tech certified working condition!"

Fixing up a 1985 Oscar clone


video upload by Craig Barnes

"This is the repairs to my 1985/86 hand made Osc Oscar clone, the famous Moog Oscar from Sound on Sound June 2004. I finally received it back after around 38 years apart. It's had some refurbs and mods and travelled extensively. Europe and the states and eventually wound up in Berlin. I received it dead with no boot. MIDI board was loose, but it couldn't be that simple. No sound from the synth and after getting it to the panel mode and tweaking a few knobs I eventually got it to make a weak sawtooth sound. Lower half of the keybed was dead so I replaced the 5x 4051 chips that read the keyboard and the 7 that read the front panel. Then I removed the aux input mod and upgraded to the Tauntek midi board. A little scratchy in places but nothing that can't be fixed."

Ambient with OP-1 field & OP-1 : Experimental Medium 2025-07-12 by atnr


video upload by atnr

"A piece for ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field and OP-1, where sustained electronic tones blend with layers of radio static for an ambient soundscape.

OP-1 field: Routed through a ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ MOOD MK II to create micro-loops, then into a ‪@HologramElectronics‬ MICROCOSM for deep reverb.

OP-1: Begins by sampling radio noise, processed with ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOSSY’s filter effect; later, the onboard synth is played with the CWO effect."
