Mother-32 SN 35763
DFAM SN 26738
Subharmonicon SN 14722
4-Channel Summing Mixer SN 4245

"This bundle of three of Moog's semi-modular synths, DFAM (Drummer From Another Mother), MOTHER32, SUBHARMONICON was specially packaged by the company as a great starter for beginners and professional musicians wanting to get into the modular synth world. This set is beautifully boxed, and shows the love that Moog puts into its products. I have used the synths, but never used or pinned up the posters, sticker or cut outs. They are all untouched. I did play with the patch exploration cards that helped me to learn modular patching to a better extent (Still a full deck).

Moog has discontinued this package, much to the disappointment of many Moog fans. You can still buy the modules separately, but without all the extras that make this set so much fun.

CONTENTS: Moog Sound Studio’s full bundle comes with a three tiered rack with a cable rack that can be attached to store patch cables, custom dust cover, audio mixer, patch book and cables. Other items in the package contain a synth exploration card game and custom artwork by Moog, a Moog screwdriver and Moog pouch for the cables, MIDI patch cable to patch to outboard midi keyboards. I'm adding extra patch cables that weren't in the original purchase" + "'skins' or layovers mimicking the original Moog Matriarch colors which I'm including in the package."

"Super rare analog synth Pulser/Hillwood/Multivox M-75/Mx-75.

Good working condition.

One of the preset switches is little unreliable in one position, works, but little cleaning would improve the reliability."

Roland JD-XA Keyboard Synthesizer

"Roland JD-XA—arguably one of the most unique synths ever built. You get 4 true analog parts + 4 digital parts, lush filters, deep modulation, killer sequencer, and hands-on control that makes this a sound designer’s dream. Zero issues, zero wear—looks and plays like new."

OB-Xf - a great sounding Oberheim from the Surge team


video upload by abominable music

"OB-Xf is an open source (GPL3 license) project from the Surge team aiming to recreate the sound of the classic Oberheim OB-X. Available as a standalone application on macOS, Windows, and Linux (VST3, AU, LV2, CLAP formats). Building on existing work from 2DaT and discoDSP (OB-Xd) and still in Beta, this can be downloaded from the developer Github repo: https://github.com/surge-synthesizer/...
The synth doesn't have effects, I'm using Valhalla Supermassive for reverb in these demos

My custom patches are available for free on my KoFi page: https://ko-fi.com/s/6419dc9bea"

The über-quirky, but fun Memorymoog sequencer explained | Synth geeks are strange people


video upload by Espen Kraft

"Memorymoog plus. Polyphonic and monophonic sequencing with CV & Gate old school and tons of fun. Syncing the Memorymoog can also be a challenge."

Chase Bliss: Generation Loss MkII Model Demo


video upload by MKustomAudio

"The ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ 'Generation Loss MkII' pedal simulates the sound of tape while offering a number of different models (EQ profiles based around physical hardware) for wide ranging results. To demonstrate the possibilities, full mixes of short ambient tracks I’ve previously posted were used. After setting the secondary/hidden settings and the DIP switches, a MIDI controller [NOVATION LAUNCHKEY MINI 37 MK4] was used to turn on/off the pedal and adjust the main parameters."
