Come for the ride! Explore the Wavefinder & Grainer and any effect that will systematically destroy anything and everything.

Father & Son - 70-ies/90-ies Electro Jam


video upload by Jose's Vintage Keys

"Our very first father-and-son studio jam!

Roderick and I went live with the OBX, Moog Muse, Vermona Perfourmer and Roland TR-8—exploring sounds, building grooves and simply enjoying the moment.

The complete jam was performed live and mastered directly to Revox tape for extra warmth, character and analogue glue.

No fixed plan—just two generations, a studio full of instruments and a shared love of electronic music."

Multitimbralité et Morphing sur The River 2


video upload by Laurent Baloran

"Rapide présentation de la multitimbralité de The River 2.
Un timbre A, un timbre B, le panneau peut être actif sur A ou B. Le mode A+B permet d'avoir les deux timbres simultanément, on divise alors la polyphonie par 2. Et à partir de 1'10 The River 2 évolue entre le timbre A et le timbre B. La commande de morphing sera modulable (Wheel, MPE, pédale) et peut être même enveloppe, mais là c'est l'histoire de la poule et de l'oeuf...."

"A quick overview of The River 2's multitimbrality.
It features Timbre A and Timbre B, with the control panel active on either A or B. A+B mode allows both timbres to play simultaneously, though this halves the polyphony. From the 1:10 mark, The River 2 morphs between Timbre A and Timbre B. The morphing control will be modulatable (via wheel, MPE, or pedal)—and potentially even an envelope, though that raises a chicken-and-egg scenario..."

Additional SYNTH CITY Listings

"This monstrous synth is in great shape and sounds fantastic. There are eight analog voices which can be panned individually for some really interesting stereo sounds. The keyboard can be split or doubled and there are two oscillators per voice. It is a very warm sounding synth great for massive chords, basses and leads. This model has MIDI in out and thru.

It is quite a beast, with all the great 80s vibe and that classic Oberheim sound. In fantastic working and cometic condition overall. Serial No. 050516

Service notes:

-Replaced firmware IC
-Replaced several failied CMOS logic chips
-Recapped bend assembly and processor pcbs
-Repaired D/A converters on voice boards
-Cleaned panel controls
-Fully calibrated
-Repaired autotune circuit
-Replaced missing hardware"

"Am extremely sad to sell my Steiner-Connolly Synthacon

This was handmade by Robbie Connolly (The Killers) and his team under the direction of his neighbor Nyle Steiner who built and designed the original Steiner-Parker Synthesizers in the 70's. Made with real through hole circuitry and manufactured by a small team in Provo, Utah these are as luxury of a synth as you can get.

I had the pleasure of working on their team which is where I earned this, but now must part ways with it to pay off some debt.

I am really not eager to part with this, so it's priced accordingly...

Everything works, no visible imperfections I am aware of. Been kept in my home studio.

This is serial number 10, and I am unsure as to whether they're making more of these or not..."
