ARP Odyssey 2810 w/4035 Filter, Instant Odyssey Patch Book & Case

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

via this auction

"This is possibly the best deal you will find on a VINTAGE ARP Odyssey Mk II 2810 circa 1975 (this is NOT one of the new Korg imitation reissues). It has been professionally refurbished by LA Synth Co. (docs provided) All the sliders cleaned and lubed, connections cleaned and all the key bushings replaced. Though this is a mkII it has some mk1 'crossover' features: the rotary pitch bend knob and contains the original highly sought-after 4035 4-pole filter famously 'borrowed' by ARP from the Moog filter of the same era.

ALSO INCLUDED:
-ORIGINAL Anvil road case with brand new freshly installed foam.
-ORIGINAL "Instant Odyssey" patch templates which include 2 blanks for your own custom sounds
-Copies of Odyssey user manual and patch book (I never had originals)
-Monster cable audiophile RCA>¼" output cord.

It's all original except for 4 rubber feet I recently added, (originals were missing) and slider caps are missing on VCO, Keyboard CV and HPF sliders. These are available online, if you feel the need to replace."

SloBo - Bowed Strings synth made in SunVox

Published on Nov 30, 2017 cube48

"Sorry for out of focus video!

Little sound demo of SloBo - a synth made purely with SunVox modules, no samples involved. It's my personal study case of synthesizing a raw approximation of bowed instruments and learning about the articulation techniques of cellos, violins & Co. It's called SloBo because as of now it allows only relatively slow bowing articulation. Future versions or derivations might include other types of playing styles (need to dig deeper into the topic).

Big thanks to Alex Zolotov of SunVox (a.k.a. NighRadio) for his latest update of SunVox which allows multi-channel MIDI mapping of modules and allowing construction of MPE enabled patches!

Single voice patch and 4 voice Linnstrument optimized patch can be downloaded at SunVox forum:

Moog Mother-32 Tutorial - 3 Sequencer + Patchbay Tricks!

Published on Nov 30, 2017 Wouter van Leeuwen

"In this tutorial video i'll be sharing three tricks on the Mother-32 that involve the sequencer and it's patchbay in/outputs."

Make Noise Announces Black and Gold Shared System Plus

via Make Noise:

"The Shared System re-made in Black and Gold w/ the Erbe-Verb, Morphagene, TEMPI, and CV Bus added in a steel case with the Make Noise logo. The personal favorite system of Make Noise founder Tony Rolando, this collection of modules is utilized by all artists for the Make Noise Records Shared System Series. It was also utilized by both Alessandro Cortini and Richard Devine for their performances at the 2012 Make Noise Opening party. The Shared System is the deepest and most complex of our systems bringing together all of our synthesis techniques into one system. From analog FM to voltage controlled granularization, the Shared System will go to more sound destinations than most folks have time to travel to in a single lifetime.

The CV Bus was originally designed for Alessandro Cortini's personal Make Noise system. It provides visual indication of level, rate and polarity for up to 4 control signals that will be shared throughout a patch. These 4 control signals are color coded and distributed across the center of the system allowing for quick, clean and intuitive patching. The distribution method is unlike the typical multiple since the control signals will appear beneath their possible destinations allowing for the use of shorter patch cables. The color coding and visual indication makes navigating complex patches easier and more intuitive. Typically, the CV Bus would be used to share the most important control signals in a patch such as your Master Clock.

The CV Bus also has the tools needed for integrating the Make Noise system with the outside world. A 1/4" Mono input with plenty of gain allows for bringing external signals into the system. The optimal 10Vpp signal level is visually indicated. A high quality Stereo Line Driver converts powerful modular synthesizer signal levels to the commonly used Line Level. There is mini-jack inputs for Left and Right, a single Master Volume control, and a TRS Stereo 1/4" output jack. This output is capable of driving long cable out to a PA System or a set of Headphones. It has AC coupling and a built-in limiting circuit (with visual indication) that prevents damage to ears and PA system when the patching gets experimental.

The powder coated steel Case is 2 lbs. lighter than our wood Shared System case without compromising mechanical durability. The sleek matte black finish was selected to match our line of Black and Gold modules. This finish will show the story of your modular synth's travels over the years. If you do not want that story to be told you will want to request your system to be built using our wood 7U case with scratch resistant black urethane coating."

thru my Celestron Nexstar 6 SE w/32mm eyepiece.
I have seen this before, many times, but this time I
thought I should share it with the world. There are
two bright lights that emerged after 1:30 am on the
shadow terminator line which are quite obvious.
The beginning of the video was recorded at 10:30pm
and NO LIGHTS were present. I zoom into the lights
and you can see SMALLER LIGHTS twinkling around
the two larger lights. Aliens? Human Base on the Moon?
Actually this is just tips of mountains emerging from
the shadow but the illusion is just stunning because
it really looks like an ALIEN BASE ON THE MOON!
So tell me what you think! I would love to know!!!!
Do you think there are ALIEN BASES ON THE MOON?

New ALM Busy Circuits ALM018 - ‘MUM M8’ 8hp Eurorack Low Pass Filter

ALM018 - 'MUM M8' from ALM on Vimeo.

Apparently Vimeo still does not support embedded playlists, so you will find the additional demos further below.

"‘MUM M8’ is an 8hp Eurorack low pass filter building on the filter design used in the classic Akai S950 12 bit sampler with the addition of resonance, voltage control, clipped saturation and a dedicated VCA.

The low pass filter gives the recognisable super smooth vacuum like tone sucking sound which works magic on complex sources. The addition of clipped overdrive and intentionally aggressive self oscillating resonance compliment the smooth filter core by juxtaposing it into more wasp like territory with acidic squeals and a more gritty sound.

The filter core is a 6th Order Butterworth switched capacitor type design featuring an analog core but controlled by a high speed digital clock. This produces the characteristic smooth sounding filter but, as with the original S950, has a relatively high minimum cut off as to avoid ‘clock bleed’ into the filter output from the digital control. This minimum cut of point can be controlled via trimmers on the rear of the module.

The motivation for the module came from discussing filters in classic samplers with the artist Jack Adams – aka Mumdance. Jack suggested investigating the S950’s filter well known as for it use in classic use in early jungle and hardcore. From that point onward Jack provided inspiration, help and feedback in the development of the filter. Big up Mumdance.

Features

Eurorack recreation of classic sampler filter with added resonance and voltage control.
Dual audio inputs, one with VCA and level control.
Dual CV (with attenuversion) and manual control of cut off frequency.
Single CV (with attenuation) and manual control of resonance.
Ability to overdrive and saturate signals into filter core.
Reverse polarity protection.
Skiff friendly.
Designed and Made in the UK
Mumdance approved 100"

Roland CMU-800R w/ Radio Junkbox MIDI-IF Box & CV Out x 8

Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
Published on Nov 28, 2017 Owen D RhythmDial

"Radio Junkbox midi box makes the CMU easily run by MIDI as shown here run by my Zaquencer. Drums from CMU run thru Vestafire distortions, synth parts just EQd and swept in Allen&Heath mixer, SpartaDelay and ZOOM reverb used in spots too."

The CMU-800R normally requires software and a vintage Apple II to work. The Junkbox MIDI-IF Box replaces that.

via this auction

"Nice condition vintage Roland CMU-800R and a MIDI-IF box from Radio Junkbox out of Japan that plugs into the weird super wide SCSI style original CMU cable and gives this unit great functionality by MIDI.

Individual audio outputs and main mix output.
Faders for audio levels work well for main mix adjustments.
Synth parts controls work well (decay, sustain)
8 channels of CV/Gate output based on MIDI channel inputs.
Power is 117v US power.
MIDI-IF box is awesome, includes its own 5V mini wall wart power supply, also sends out DINsync from incoming MIDI clock. Manual included for MIDI-IF box.

Sounds great too! Drums are very TR-606 like in circuitry and sound. The bass part is nice and full, deep and solid. The melody and chord part are similar sounding but chord part can play 4-note polyphony on its own. The synth parts are weak in their adjustment vs synths like the classic juno-106 but I’ve found adding fx like ring mod or resonant filters to them in eurorack or various rack units livens these parts up very well."
