DARK AMBIENT | SOLAR 42


video upload by ELTA music

"SOLAR 42f is a unique experimental electro-music instrument, an analogue microtonal ambient drone machine. It will inspire you to find a new and spontaneous approach to composing music.

The instrument is oriented for live performances, creating film soundtracks, theatre soundtracks, atmospheric sounds, microtonal and background music. The instrument was inspired by early electronic musical instruments of the 1920s and 1950s, notably Leo Theremin's «Harmonium» instrument, as well as science fiction film soundtracks."

HOW TO FIX Sticky Rubberised Paint issues on a synthesizer


video upload by ranzee

I wonder if these wipes would work.

"Rubberised paint coated many synthesizer knobs, sliders and other components and were widely used in the early parts of 2010 - 2020.

A lot of these parts are degrading and a sticky surface emerges as the chemicals break down.

This video shows a temporary, quick and inexpensive solution to get you going by using talcum powder (baby powder)."

MOscar fully restored (except knobs)


video upload by Craig Barnes

"First test of the restored MOscar synth. It came to me quite dead with a loose MIDI board and a dead -5v rail, along with quite a few weird pots and strange wiring. Anyways I think it's back to normal now with a Tauntek MIDI upgrade as well."

Akai S2000 Sampler NEW OLD STOCK with Extras Including Original Box

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this Reverb listing

"New old stock Akai S2000 classic sampler with extras. Opened just to take pictures and to be turned on.

Includes original set of Floppy Disks (OS 2.0, MESA, Sounds Disk, Demo Sequence), SCSI, Manual in German, the Optional Original Akai 32 Mb memory expansion SIMMs, a 16 GB SD Card with preloaded 7 of the original Library Discs (vol. 1-7 ) in Image Files format ready for eg. ZuluSCSI readers. This images were created from my original Akai CD library vol. 1-7 with a Plextor Drive and are not from any uncertain web source.

Unit comes new as it was sold back then, so NO optional output expansion is present. The unit has the standard 2Mb memory fitted, the buyer will expand its memory to its maximum (32 Mb) with the new Akai SIMMs provided as pictured.

For any Akai Sampler Collector the oppurtunity to own a new unit directly from the past (so no yellowed knobs or buttons or any other sign of use)

Due to the almost-vintage nature of the item it listed in Reverb as used-mint but it is actually NEW."
