"Classic Oberheim OBX 8 voice polyphonic polysynth in good condition and fully working from 1979 that's extremely rare.
Used famously for its wide distinctive various sounds in the early 80s by Earth Wind and Fire, Queen flash and another one bites the dust sounds, Those big deep haunting dark sounds on The Police Ghost in the machine album from 1981, Roxy music to Killing Joke and Japan tin drum to lush sounds on later songs like on Nena 99 red balloons and KC and Sunshine band Give it up. I've used this a lot over the last 3 years and it has really stood out as something special.
I have had this fully overhauled a few years ago, it has a very fast tune up time and of course it sounds fantastic. I've programmed some great sounds worth keeping, it's very lush and big sounding and crazy sounding that can be very interesting and very out if you like those Sci fi sounds from that era. It has X mod on that's rare on synths from this time and when in unison mode thats like thunder and lighting crashing down. It has 2 VCOs, LFO with sine, square and S and H wave forms with a extra high and low pass filter."

New Vintage Synthlab AWM-3 Wavefold Mixer Eurorack Module
Published on Jan 2, 2017 Vintage Synthlab
Playlist:
1. AWM-3 Demo #1 : Eurorack analog wavefold mixer module introduction to wave shaping
"First video to introduce the AWM-3 16hp Eurorack modular wave-shaping mixer. An essential tool and utility combined that will give you real-time analog signal processing and the ability to produce new and unique sounds. The AWM-3 is a 16hp Eurorack modular synthesis wave-shaping / wave-folding mixer with added features of compression and multiple mix modes, including matrix mix outputs. This video shows the basic setup for wave-folding."
2. AWM-3 Demo #2 : Eurorack analog wavefold mixer module compression feature
"The second demo for the AWM-3, a 16hp Eurorack modular synthesis wave-shaping / wave-folding mixer with added features of compression and multiple mix modes, including matrix mix outputs. In this video, we demonstrate the compressor feature."
3. AWM-3 Demo #3 : Eurorack analog wavefold mixer module LFO modulation to wave shaping
"The third demo for the AWM-3, a 16hp Eurorack modular synthesis wave-shaping / wave-folding mixer with added features of compression and multiple mix modes, including matrix mix outputs. This video shows one example of connection external modulation sources (LFOs in this case) and applying them to each wave-fold bias (CV input) for each wave-fold stage while in a triple-wave-fold configuration."
4. AWM-3 Demo-4 : Eurorack modular wave-shaping mixer module
5. AWM-3 Demo #5 : Stereo Chorus effect with wavefolding and matrix-mixing
Details on the module via VSL:
"AWM-3 - Analog Wavefold MixerAnalog Wavefold Mixer Eurorack Module in 16HP
$279.00
The AWM-3 is an all analog, real-time, complex wave-shaping (triple wave-folder) 3-channel mixer module with added features of compression and multiple mix modes including matrix mixes. The combination of multiple access points (outputs of various mixes), wave-folding, and compression allow for an extremely wide array of signal processing, including complex chorus-like sounds.
All three channels are identical and can operate independently. They can also be cascaded (connected in series) to obtain double and triple wave-folding. The compressor at the front-end of each channel allows for not only unique wave-shaping, but the ability to send asymmetrical wave-shaped signals through multiple wave-fold stages while preserving a better managed signal process.
With individual outputs for each channel, a master mix (and master level control), as well as three matrix mix outputs as: “MIX 1+2” (1 OUT + 2 OUT), “MIX 2+3” (2 OUT + 3 OUT), “MIX 1+3” (1 OUT + 3 OUT), the AWM-3 is wave-shaper, signal processor, and multi-mode mixer.

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"This is the nicest Korg Poly-61 you can get. Here's why:
Fully restored and upgraded this fall by Perfect Circuit Audio, where they replaced the caps, modified the battery to a removable slot to prevent the dreaded Korg battery board death, and installed the Tubbutec ModyPoly modificiation, which adds a power arpeggiator mode, midi control of arpeggiator click, midi control of filter, pitch bend, midi output for chord mode, new LFOs, and much more not available on the original Poly-61M Custom gray walnut wood ends by Allen Coppock of SynthSpa — he's the only one who offers custom ends for the 61m and there as a 4 month wait on these.
The Tubbutec mods add:
Midi in + Midi out (better and more durable than the original 61M midi ports)
Sustain Pedal input
Additional play modes: 2 Voice, 3 Voice, Polychord, extended unison mode
New arpeggiator / sequencer mode: Powerarp
All functions are easily accessible via buttons: suitable for live use
Midi controls arpeggiator clock, triggers the arp, filter, pitch bend * and more
Midi output of arpeggiator, chords and powerarp sequences or simple keypresses
S/H LFO and fast triangular LFO for filter
Midi channels and various other options can be configured without external tools
Very easy to install, no soldering required (a bit of soldering if you want midi controlled filter and pitch bend)
High quality midi sockets and sustain pedal jack
Condition:
The wood sides are brand new
The internals are fully refurbished and functional
All buttons, keys, and LCDs work perfectly
The surface front panel and key tray has a few scratches and scuffs (see photos) but is overall in Very Good condition. There are no dents in the metal. I have provided high resolution photos to show the condition accuracy"

"I have a number of works combining #ciatlonbarde circuits - cocodeer, dogdeer, sidrolz.
我有些作品是合并 #ciatlonbarde 电路:coco鹿,犬鹿,sidrolz。different than those machines side by side, patched with wires. deeper considerations of mix and match, dedicated interfaces. they are prepared synthesizers as circuits are synthesised first and sounds after. instrumentality first, and modularity after.
和几个分立的模块合成器摆在一起相比,意义并不相同,伴随电路间深入的匹配,和专门设计的演奏界面。这是准备的合成器,因为电路先被合成,然后是声音。乐器性为先,其次是模块性。
sidrazzi and rolz are classic, for parallel layout of identical sections, result in interaction in control and instability in reactions. it's complexity not by functions but connections. a quantitative approach for a qualitative achievement.
sidrazzi 和 rolz 是经典的。相同电路的并列,却产生奇妙结果。控制和参数相互影响,反应很不稳定。它们的复杂性来自连接而非功能。量变的做法,得来质变的成果。

fortunately i am still stupid,

"a live performance in one take. an ambient drone improvisation for modular synthesizer, monome grid, cassette tape, effects, and field recordings from a winter vacation in the southwest. sparrows and crows stirring, icicles shattering, snowclumps falling from bushes, the trickle of tiny drops. little worlds thawing.
a monophonic recording of a rhodes '73 improvisation, played from a musicthing radiomusic module, is run through mutable instruments clouds. that processed audio forms the pads throughout the piece. clouds parameters were modulated with envelopes and scratchy random motion from mannequins just friends and cold mac. melodic swells were played with a monome grid connected to earthsea, controlling a mannequins mangrove oscillator, sent through the three sisters filter in lowpass mode. that audio goes through the isms spring reverb tank, then into strymon tape delay and reverb pedals. the winter sounds, originally captured with a zoom h5, are played back from the tape deck.
this is my last song for weekly beats 2016; 52 weeks of completed tracks. you can listen to the original recording of this piece on soundcloud: https://soundcloud.com/ioflow/meltwater-sunrays-warming"

Roland RE-301 Space Cat (Roland Chorus Echo tape delay with Octave Cat)
Published on Jan 2, 2017 Earmonkey Music
"Happy New Year! Got my setup back together and I'm ready to get the new year started with more videos! This is a short little jam/demonstration of the Roland RE-301tape delay. I have a 16-step sequence running on the Octave Cat and start it off dry so you can hear what it sounds like on its own. Then the RE-301 just does its thing. It's like having another instrument almost. All effects are coming from the RE-301. No other processing other than some EQ and then compression on the Arturia Drumbrute. I tried to show the various delay lengths, a little bit of the spring reverb, the Chorus circuit, and what you can do with the Sound on Sound switch (which really makes things get crazy). This is an incredible sounding unit. If you can find one, I highly recommend picking one up. It is so choice"
Yamaha CS-60: "Carry On" by Raymond Castile
Published on Jan 2, 2017 raycastile
"Hello. Here is another entry in my series of Yamaha CS-60 videos. Once again, no video of me playing. Instead, you get a mesmerizing cloudscape. This piece required a lot of multi-tracking and a lot of takes, so it didn't lend itself to a live performance video.
I called it 'Carry On.' Reminds me of British things, like the 'Keep Calm' slogan and the Carry On film series. But it's not deliberately referencing those things. I was thinking of how someone carries on despite setbacks and disasters, when it would be easier and less painful to quit.
The path ahead is dark and mysterious, portending doom, but you walk forward, unsteady and unsure, but you keep moving and hoping. Then another setback hits you, knocks you down, laughs at you as you tumble. You sit there a bit, gathering the nerve to continue, then you start again. But this time, you're more sure of yourself. The setback gave you strength. Finally, you are striding confidently into the future, though secretly there is still a little doubt. Listen to the piece with this description in mind and you will see how it matches step by step."

2nd Oscillator versus Waveform Animator
2nd Oscillator versus Waveform Animator from Learning Modular on Vimeo.
"Lots of semi modular synths - such as the popular Moog Mother-32 - have only one VCO. A popular addition to these is a second VCO. But have you considered a waveform animation module as an alternative? In this video I demonstrate both approaches, and cover some side issues like the need to have an inverting mixer in your system, and the advantages of having a more capable MIDI to CV converter than may be built into your semi modular synth. For more background and tips, see the accompanying article: http://learningmodular.com/second-oscillator-or-waveform-animator/"

Novation Circuit: Creating a House Groove with your own samples
Published on Jan 2, 2017 anode8
"In this video I show you how I used some clever samples to create a house music groove on the Novation Circuit synthesizer/groovebox. This is NOT a full fledged track, or an in depth tutorial on the capabilities of this machine, just a little run through of my daily use of the Circuit."
"Perfect Life" - song with Arturia MicroBrute and Novation UltraNova
Published on Jan 1, 2017 SynthMania
"First song of 2017! :-) I've been working with this song for a few days and today I finally put it on tape. As usual, I'm not much of a singer and this key is too high for me but I do what I can. Happy New Year!
Lyrics
Some say things wont't last forever
Like summer rains, so plain to see
for all the terror, and the glory
the talking heads keep filling in
It's a perfect life
Such a perfect life
She's looking for a new dimension
A midnight ride, down to the sea
She feels the touch straight from the clouds
a chill goes down right through the spine
It's a perfect life
Such a perfect life
---***---
I have been patient for too long now
Still can't seem to count the years
Too many reasons to pretend now,
It's hard not to hold back the tears
It's a perfect life
Such a perfect life
It's a perfect life
Such a perfect life
with you"
Sequential Circuits Model 800 Sequencer

"This is an extremely rare and amazingly intuitive sequencer. It belongs with someone who will use it more than i do. It's one of the finest Cv/Gate sequencers ever made due to it's logical layout and improvisational capabilities. More on that later...
There were only around 500 made, and they were hand made by Dave Smith himself. He started his entire company Sequential Circuits based on this round of sequencer sales, which then provided his business foundation for developing the Prophet 5 and other major musical instrument milestones .
And what's more is that of the 500, only the first 50 or so had the capability of working with both V/Octave standard AND Hz/V standard. This is one of them. It is serial number 0041, and presumably this capability was more expensive due to the pricier D/A conversion necessary for the higher resolution.
AND, what's even more, is that this is one of a small handful that had a mod done to the unit (by Dave Smith) that allows for musical rests to be placed between notes. One can add as many single beat rests as any sequence can fit.
Ok, so now for the depths...
