via this auction
via the seller's description:
"This ARP Synth and controller is in near perfect shape. Both the synth and the keyboard work 100%. The keys them selves are smooth and even with no yellowing or cracking. I have worked through hundreds of patches with this synth, both on its own and with a sequencer and all of the connections are in great shape. I recently had this gone through professionally by Deltronics in Chicago.

iChromaCC+ v1.2 Wireless iPad Editor Now Available

"Apple has released iChromaCC+ v1.2 for Rhodes Chroma fitted with a CC+ MIDI / CPU upgrade board, a free upgrade for all iChromaCC+ v1.1 users.

iChromaCC+ v1.2 offers:
- a display of the Chroma Patch 'algorithms / connections' on the iPad as drawn on the Chroma user manual; touch a Patch on the iPad, iChromaCC+ sends the MIDI command to select this Patch and highlight the Patch number on the iPad! You never have to open the user manual anymore!
- a redesigned look & feel for enhanced readability plus some very tiny UI adjustments to make the workflow even better
- parameter default value buttons. In v1.2, if you touch the parameter value label, it resets the label / slider to a default value (ex: VCO wave = Saw; VCF Freq = wide open, etc...) for each parameter... this is the fastest workflow you'll ever get in sound designing!"

Generative Music in the Blues Scale using AudioCubes and Ableton Operator


YouTube Uploaded by Percussa on Jun 3, 2011

"AudioCubes are shown in this video with the new free generative music app from Percussa, capable of generating complex melodies, using note intervals from the blues scale. Notes can be sent via MIDI to any compatible hardware or software such as the Operator synth in Ableton Live 8 in this example. By adding cubes melodies can be added on top of each other. Rotate cubes to change number of notes played per bar, and place cubes next to each other to make them add to each other's note intervals to create subtly changing melodies, which will continue to have a time and harmony relationship."

New AtomoSynth Mochika XL


via AtomoSynth

"Hello World, at last it is our new Mochika XL.

Let's make some serious noise!!! this machine is great for live performance and improvisation for creating insane effect loops, acid basslines or crazy random rhythms.
Make noise - experimental music, change the sound in real time by tweeking the knobs on stage or in studio.

Connect it to your favorite effects (delay, flange, etc, etc)and create a wide sort of rhytm textures and soundscapes.

Sync it to any midi device like a drumbox midi sequencer or computer and play live with this beautiful lighted analog sequencer synth box!!!.

Specifications
This synth features one analog square and saw waveform VCO (voltage controled oscillator) with a huge pitch range, from subsonic to ultrasonic sound.

Glide effect with a large range for radical portamento effect.

One square and triangle waveform LFO (low frequency oscillator), that modulates the VCO for the vibrato effect or the VCF for a tremolo effect, creating old school arcade Atari-like sounds.

White noise generator that triggers the VCO and can create percussion like sounds, or mix the the noise with the VCO.

Also, it has a built in vactrol based Low Pass and High Pass Filter with cut off and peak controls and a envelope generator with decay control to create a wide sort of timbres and sound possibilities.

Built in 8 step sequencer with global gate time control, note on/off switch and pitch slider for each step.

Then built in sequencer also has 8 playing modes:
Oscillator mode, the Mochika becomes a drone oscillator, you can select in real time between the 8 notes tweaking a knob.
4 step, 6 step, and 8 step sequencer mode.
4 step, 6 step, and 8 step forth and back sequence mode.
Random mode, it generates a large pseudo random sequence, seed of chaos!!!

The Mochika XL features a MIDI input to sync it any midi device sending midi clock signals, the mochika can sync 1, 2, 4 and up to 8 times the tempo of the master clock midi device.

Also the instrument is ligthed with 1 bright red led that indicates the LFO Rate, and 8 red leds to indicate the step that is being played. Very useful when you play it on a dark stage.

The Analog Sequencer is packed in a cool laser cut clear acrilic case that shows all the hand made analog circuitry.

The instrument is powered directly from 110V or 220V AC depending of the country.
Dimensions: 177mm(W), 228 mm(D), 80mm(H. incuded rubber feet and knobs)"

Audio Damage Panstation

via Audio Damage
"Panstation is, without question, the most sophisticated autopanner plug-in available. We started with a loose model of the venerable Drawmer M500's panning engine, then added the counting features from the Audio & Design PanScan (probably the most famous vintage autopanner, and the "secret weapon" of many well-known producers.) The result is an autopanner plug-in that is second to none in both feature set and sound.
Panstation Features:
• Four different panning laws, including an exact 1:1 clone of the M500 pan law.

• Ten panning waveforms, including all the waveforms present in the M500.

• Free-run, MIDI tempo sync, MIDI note trigger, MIDI note number, and CC control of panning.

• Audio trigger counting feature from the A&D PanScan.

• Easy-to-read user interface. No squinting at tiny pixel fonts.

• Relative phase control of each side, for tremolo and stereo widening effects.

• MIDI Learn for full MIDI CC control over every parameter."

"Testing an prototype from Olegtron. The Olegtron 4060 box you see on the table has 3 leads connected to the mixer (in this demo).

The device is generating all the audio you are hearing, except some reverb from the cheap mixer, what a wonderful little box the 4060 Olegtron is! This demo shows just 0.05% of what you can do with it...

Stay tuned for more and start saving up, because you will want to buy one!"

Marion Systems MSR-2 Analog Oberheim Module


via this auction

"What we have for auction here is a legendary and ultra rare Tom Oberheim designed Marion Systems MSR-2 Module in an almost mint conditon! It was basically designed as a modular 8-Voice Polysynth (expandable to 16-Voice) in the vein of the Matrix 12/6 series but much better sounding! Unfortunately due to the onset of the digital synth era Marion Systems never had a chance. As as a result it is extremely difficult to find these units."

" Polyphony - 8 voices (expandable to 16)
Oscillators - 2 oscillators per voice
LFO - matrix modulation built-in (up to 10 routings at the same time with 24 sources/33 destinations)
Filter - 12/24 dB/oct filter
Memory - 500 patches
Control - MIDI"

"The Light Punch is a very nice handmade Synth. It features 2 squarewave oscillators and one VCO. The 2 oscs can be controlled by ldrs (with different lightsources) and the vco can be controlled by a knob. There is a pushbutton that creates a nice release-effect, when pushed."
