Click the auction link on top when you get there for additional listings.

"The TB-303 is undoubtedly the most cloned synth ever - but clones are clones. DIN Sync call their RE-303 a replica, with some justification.
This was professionally made with correct components, and from the correct era. It's like having an original TB-303 which hasn't been played to death - and has well-featured MIDI in addition. My example is not quite mint, but seriously beautiful.

Comes with a UK external power supply - it needs to be well-regulated and to spec.

VEMIA can collect and pack (9GBP) for onward shipping / delivery."

Likaon Instruments Tuna quick start


video upload by likaoninstruments

"Tuna lets you automatically tune up to 4 VCOs. It acts as a proxy between the VCO and the CV source, and lets you pick the tuned output to route it anywhere.

Tuna v/octave OUT → VCO v/octave IN
Tuna Signal IN ← VCO output
Tuna copy OUT → filter, mixer... main output
Tuna v/octave IN ← sequencer or keyboard CV output"

Oberheim Xpander first encounter


video upload by MIDERA

"It is not my best work... but I wanted to put something up. Today, I traded some gear and ended up with an Xpander. It's pretty crazy what it can do. However, I'm not particularly enjoying editing from a distance, since the 'desktop' nature of the Xpander is such that it can't actually sit on any of my synths. It's literally bigger than my OB-6.

But it's got a very unique sound. Hopefully after I take some time I can really dig into the parameters of the instrument (and find a better way to edit it while playing).

How Vince Clarke Made “Don’t Go” | Yazoo Synthpop Breakdown


video upload by Nostalgic Explorer

"What makes 'Don’t Go' by Yazoo one of the most iconic synthpop tracks of the 1980s?

In this video, I explore how Vince Clarke shaped the sound of early electronic music through his work with Yazoo, and how his minimalist but powerful approach to synthesizers helped define an entire genre. After leaving Depeche Mode, Clarke refined his production style — focusing on strong melodies, tight sequencing, and bold synth sounds — and “Don’t Go” is one of the best examples of that evolution.

Before diving into the recreation, I share a bit of context around Yazoo and why this track became so influential across synthpop and electronic music.

Then I take you into the studio.

Step by step, I recreate the track using a combination of vintage hardware and modern tools inside Logic Pro. For this version I used:

• Sequential Circuits Pro-One – basslines and lead elements
• Sequential Drumtraks – drum programming
• Logic Pro VST instruments – additional textures and supporting sounds

I walk through the recording process, sequencing, arrangement, and showing how each layer comes together to recreate the energy of the original track.

It is interesting to understand how Vince Clarke’s production approach continues to influence modern electronic music, from synthpop to contemporary electronic genres."
