Exploring the E&MM Spectrum DIY Synthesiser, 1981
video upload by Reuben Jones
"Another video on the E&MM Spectrum Synthesiser. Not very musical, but the Spectrum is a quite unpredictable and unruly, and mine needs a proper service/calibration.
The Spectrum is architecturally similar to the Sequential Circuits Pro~One, but even the Pro~One's famed modulation matrix isn't enough to match the weirdness of the Spectrum.

Cherry Audio Arp Quadra synth/controller
video upload by Craig Barnes
"This is a project I built a few years back, always wanted a Quadra since playing one at Chase Music on Oldham Street, so when this VST came about I thought it was possible to build a synth with a tiny pc and a midi keyboard and some electronics to tie it all together. This week I've been spending time breaking down the Cherry Audio factory patches in an effort to load them onto the SD card and have them all at hand. I also decided to give it a spruce up because the panels were going brown in the sunlight."

Oberheim TEO-5 vs OB-6 demo track | Sequential Take 5 demo custom sounds
video upload by Infested Alien
"Since I scratched my head if TEO-5 is analogue enough to be filling up an entire track I just had to make a rough track for each synth. My conclusion is that TEO-5 really makes a modern feel but lacks the richness from OB-6. So in my conclusion I will stick with OB-6 and perhaps in future an OBX8 for the bread and butter sounds and TEO-5 for the a bit special ones."

"Sorry for this weird video, but I had no time to record myself between each sound since I just had to create them on the fly and record them in wavelab :) Short of time today."
