Yamaha IC Data Book

via Loscha:
"Chip Pinouts for all the customer Yamaha chips, and some other generic chips (4000 series, op-amps, etc) from the Yamaha devices listed below (as well as some PA equipment which is much less exciting). One page of the index didn't scan into the book, but, they are in a sensible easy to follow order, which is clear from the cross referenced matrix of chip vs device that follows. The original book is A5, double sided, and was bound with a clip. I was able to unclip it and feed it into the multi sheet feeding scanner at work. I am very happy to be able to share this with the world, as I don't think this book would have seen much distribution outside of Yammy service circles. I'm estimating the date to be 1981, but, if anyone knows, please let me know! You can mail me directly to loscha@gmail.com, I'd love to hear from anyone who enjoyed the book, or found it really helpful or educational!

MOS-LAB 914 Filter Demo

via Sebastian:
"I would like to inform you about a new MOS-LAB module : 914 Fixed Filter Bank. It's a wonderful module, very impressive! The original Moog's 914 design uses passive cells based on inductors and capacitors; but nowadays it's too difficult to find these inductors. I had replaced the passive cells with active filters."

"Terrible picture and I go on a bit - but hear me out, if you love synths you should appreciate it.

Analogue Preservation © is a 12x16inch book based on the design and ergonomics of the analogue synthesizer. It was shot on a Hasselblad phase on for optimum detail. The idea and realization was a collection of synths that reveal all the specifications in the photograph rather then being listed in text.

The book and idea is complete and copy written.
I'm in talks with a few publishers but they are not really known for this sort of book, so if you like it and know someone - here is my website - it has better quality examples.

"bad sound, bad picture I know - it was shot on a mobile, better then nothing though right???? The Yamaha CS-50 was born before the CS-80, it is half a CS-80 without a ribbon controller. Although half the size it is 1/10th the price...of course one voice is out of tune."
