Arturia Origin Desktop Virtual Analog Synth SN 08351000166

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this Reverb listing

"The Arturia Origin is a flagship desktop synthesis workstation, marking Arturia’s transition from software emulations to standalone hardware. Designed as a “modular virtual analog” synthesizer, it employs Arturia’s proprietary TAE (True Analog Emulation) engine, based on powerful DSP chips, to recreate the character of vintage synth hardware in a flexible digital environment.

It's quite a magnum opus of a synthesizer in "spared no expenses" approach to virtual analog emulation. Combine a CS80 filter with an ARP 2600 oscillator? No problem. It's an amazing synth and I am sad to let it go.

This unit has had its power management module (internal) replaced, so it's in great shape and works perfectly.

Comes with power supply and power cable.

It also has wood sides and front "lip", and they are in my storage unit. Cannot guarantee that they are included but I am fairly certain I'll be able to find them for you."

1980s Linn LinnDrum Fully Restored w/ Forat Mods + Forat MIDI

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.


via this Reverb listing

"Clean, excellent-condition and fully-restored Linn LinnDrum, just back from Bruce Forat. I had him add some tasteful (and in my opinion crucial) mods and his MIDI kit, which is the best there is. Here is the rundown on what has been done:

- Full electrolytic recap

- New Dtronics power supply

- All 16 panning sliders replaced

- All 16 volume sliders removed, disassembled, cleaned, & rebuilt

- All buttons disassembled, cleaned, and rebuilt

- Sidestick Tuning Mod

- 5 Congas/5 Toms Mod (switchable between 5 of either, middle is stock)

- MUX Tuning Mod (all non-tunable voices can be tuned)

- Forat MIDI

If you’re not familiar with Bruce or his work, he is the best there is when it comes to these machines. His client list is a who’s who of the biggest artists in hip-hop, rap, rock, and pop and his work with these machines is ubiquitous with the biggest hits of the last 45 years."

Waldorf Micro Q Phoenix Rackmount Synthesizer

via this eBay listing, also on Reverb

"This limited edition 25 Voice Micro Q comes from a smoke-free home studio. It is in fine working order and was a great companion to the other Waldorf's. Having the Halloween Edition of the Q keyboard, it makes sense for someone else to love this Micro Q. This one is painted all glossy unlike other Waldorf rack synths, very classy. No rack rash though the faceplate seems to have a slight bend that was probably a factory issue? Never bothered me, never been dropped either. Comes with power supply."

Oberheim OB-X 8-voice synthesizer w/ Encore MIDI SN 803405

"Vintage 1980 Oberheim OB-X 8-voice synth FOR SALE [voice card demo] for Reverb listing"



via this Reverb listing

"Vintage (~1980) Oberheim OB-X [8-voice] with Encore MIDI installed!

This has been my personal holy grail analog synth for many years. The deluxe Encore MIDI kit was professionally installed and gives the unit full MIDI in/out/thru capabilities as well as improved OS system and the ability to store 120 factory patches (i.e. OB-Xa). The synth was serviced by a pro tech and working flawlessly until just recently. Currently, there is no audio being sent from the L/R Mono output jacks. The digital processing section appears to be working normally as the knobs and LED switches are still functional (see video demo link). The eight individual voice cards were all calibrated previously and were each in working order."

Elements hidden easter egg video


video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"'A Mutable video should have a hidden easter egg'.
When I made my Elements video [below] I added an 'unlisted' video as an easter egg which was discovered by ~60 people while the original video has over 7K views. Obviously it was so well hidden it was completely overlooked, so now I made it public :)
Nothing special, it's just a bonus performance with Elements 'chord' mode, and Plaits and Rings as external sources. Check out the original Elements video for more info about the external inputs."

Elements by Mutable Instruments

video upload by Cinematic Laboratory

"I guess this is a good example focusing on the modules we already have. Elements was introduced 9 years ago on DivKid's channel and Red Means Recording did an excellent panel walkthrough about 3 years ago. It's discontinued since Mutable closed shop 'due to success and different life goals' but Mutable never left the Eurorack landscape. In fact they're still the most adopted, expanded and cloned modules around. I'll be using both Elements and After Later's ATOM in this video, which is a smaller alternative with the exact same firmware.

After nine years, i think it's time for a refreshment because even today in 2025 it's one of the coolest modules ever made, and nothing better came along. I also realized I never made a feature video for it."

Lofi Ambient Beats w/ OP-1 field, LYRA-8, LOSSY | Olive 2025-06-21 by atnr


video upload by atnr

"A track crafted with the ‪@somasynths‬ Lyra-8, ‪@teenageengineering‬ OP-1 field, and ‪@ChaseBlissAudio‬ LOSSY—an ambient beat that layers sounds into a lo-fi atmosphere.

OP-1 field: A master NITRO filter shapes the sound, and the output runs through LOSSY for an overall lo-fi vibe. The rhythm section is pre-recorded, with harmony and synth phrases overdubbed.

Lyra-8: Modulated tones are given a touch of the onboard delay, creating abstract textures.

Microphone (RØDE NT-4): Captures hand-bell hits, which receive reverb and delay in Ableton Live.

Post-production: Omnisphere is added in Ableton to layer a few extra sound effects."

It’s great… but is it worth two Bass Stations?: Moog Messenger review


video upload by MusicRadar Tech

"Messenger is Moog’s latest analogue monosynth, filling a hole left in the company’s lineup left after the Subsequent 25 was discontinued earlier this year.

Despite a simple, understated look, Messenger is a deceptively complex monosynth with a sound that more than lives up to Moog’s sonic heritage. But it enters a competitive monosynth market with a price well above some competitively equipped instruments.

Does Messenger have enough to say to justify its price tag? We explore its capabilities to find out…"

Dr. Endo explores LIVEN Evoke: Days


video upload by SONICWARE

"LIVEN Evoke | Acoustronic Synthesizer with Granular Effect
https://sonicware.jp/pages/liven-evoke

Dr. Endo – Live Set
PTN08: Days
---
Jammed a bit today with the LIVEN Evoke.
There’s always something going on in life, but just being able to spend another ordinary day feels incredibly precious and meaningful.
That’s the feeling I had in mind when making this track.
The melody is played on violin, with upright piano handling the accompaniment.
There’s also a second piano part in the higher range, set to trigger notes randomly using the Dice function at a 34% chance—so the phrasing changes subtly each time it plays.
That high-pitched piano is also sent through GRAIN FX, with the send level modulated slowly by an LFO.
This adds a soft, fading texture as the grain effect comes and goes gently over time.
I also layered in some noise to create a quiet, rain-like background.

Yu Endo

今日もLIVEN EvokeでJamってみました。
日々いろんなことがあるけれど、それでも今日を普通に過ごせるということは、本当にありがたくて、愛おしいことなんだよなぁ、っと
そんなことを思いながら作った曲です。
バイオリンでメロディを、アップライトピアノで伴奏を。
もうひとつの高音ピアノパートは、ダイス機能で34%の確率でノートが鳴るように設定していて、演奏のたびに少しずつ表情が変わるようにしています。
さらにその高音パートには、GRAIN FXのSEND量をLFOでゆっくり揺らして、
GRAINが現れたり消えたりするような、淡く滲む空気感を加えました。
ノイズも重ねて、静かな雨音のような背景も添えています。
