100,000 Hits!

Just realised I passed the 100k mark today. As of this post I'm at 101,074 hits. These are actually page views, not search bots or other. I started with an average of about 100 hits a day in July and am now at about 1000. It's been sitting there for some time so who knows if it will go up or down. It's pretty cool, but trivial when you compare it to larger sites. Just thought I'd share.

Update: Total number of posts I've put up to date? 804 with this one. You can always check out the archives on the right or the bottom of the page to see what I posted over time. The cool thing about the synth world is that old news if often new news. We definitely love our history. : )

Roland SH5 Shots

Title link takes you to some shots pulled from this auction.



From the auction:
"This really is the king of the SH range. It has a LOT of features and sounds amazing. Feature wise it has 2 VCOs, 2 LFOs, 2 VCFs (One Multimode 4 pole filter LOWPASS/BANDPASS and HIGHPASS VCF. The other is a brilliant bandpass VCF) 2EGs, Ring mod, S+H, Stereo voice panning. Modulation options are very good, the EGs can be routed to a number of sources and the two LFOs can be routed to a number of destinations. This synth although not modular has a lot of options and that CLASSIC early Roland sound."

Modcan VCO with custom Doepfer Faceplate

In via Peter Grenader on AH. Title link takes you to a bigger shot. This unit has anodized graphics which will never rub off. The Up 1 oct/Down 1 octave input has been replaced with a Gizmotron.

Synthesizer.at

Nice synth site with workshops and a dedicated page on the Elka Synthex. Have to like that. Unfortunately I don't read German, so I'm missing out. : ( I ran into this site a couple of times but just recently discovered it again after seeing it on the Deep Synthesis Journal.

GMedia Retro Bundle

In via Synthtopia. M-Tron (Mellotron), Minimonsta:Melohman (Moog Minimoog), ImpOSCar (Oxford OSCar) and Oddity (ARP Odyssey) for $449.95 US.

Clear Case SCI Pro One

Update: Via Carbon111 via the comments:

"That was a one-off I believe. Sequential made it for use in their full page ads for the Pro-one when it came out. "

Interesting. I never know that.

Looks like I'm on an SCI roll... The following isn't a clear Gleeman Pentaphonic, but actually an SCI Pro One. I forget where I got this shot. If you know please share and I'll update the post.
