ellitone instruments' groov-e device #01

video upload by ellitone instruments

via ellitone instruments

the ellitone groov-e firmware v1.0 is a fun and mysterious interactive drum-machine and polyphonic-synthesizer engine that automatically generates musical “grooves”

A “groove” consists of 3 individual sound layers: a drum-machine layer, an ambience-sample layer, and a synthesizer sequence layer. Each of these 3 sound layers can be individually tweaked and swapped to find the right mixture of sounds to make you say “WHOAH, that’s funky!”

The magic behind the groov-e firmware lies within the sequencing and rhythm creation engines. Rhythms and note sequences are NOT simply selected from a list of premade patterns, groov-e generates one-of-a-kind rhythms and note patterns using a series of decision-trees and probabilities. A NEARLY INFINITE number of possible note patterns and rhythm combinations are possible. To make things even more mysterious, these one-of-a-kind note patterns and rhythms are all temporary. Once you make the decision to generate a new drum pattern or synth sequence, the old pattern is gone FOREVER! The temporary nature of the grooves you discover makes them precious. You will NEVER hear the same combination of sounds twice while using this device. Cherish your grooves!

1. 1974 MiniKorg 700s K2, vintage analog synthesizer for sale in Portland, Oregon - Demo 1 (Pop Songs)

This is Demo 1 (1 of 2 videos) highlighting the sound and character of the 700s / K2 synthesizer in action. This video contains 3 short pieces from 3 famous songs that were written and recorded during the 1970s using the 700s / K2 synthesizer.

2. 1974 MiniKorg 700s K2, vintage analog synth for sale in Portland, Oregon - Demo 2 MIDI Bach BWV 565

This is Demo 2 (2 of 2 videos) highlighting the sound and character of the 700s / K2 synthesizer in action, and showing the external control of DAW, via MIDI, into a MIDI-to-CV convertor, connected to the CV inputs on the back side of the 700s. The MIDI songs has multiple organ and harpsichord tracks. The MIDI output to the 700s is one of the main tracks for this piece, panned to the RIGHT side of the stereo field, to help discern the 700s sound. The point of this video is to show the capability of DAW control, given all the external hardware interfaces, which comes with the sale of the 700s as one package.

"All items that come with this sale:
* 1974 Korg MiniKorg K2 / 700s
* Kenton CV Upgrade (adds 3 CV input jacks/sockets on backside of synth)
* Kenton Pro Solo Mk2 (MIDI-CV convertor)
* Custom Flight Case
* USB to 2-channel MIDI convertor box + long USB cable

Demo video # 1:
Demo video #2:

This 1974 MiniKorg K2 / 700s works and sounds great. It has the Kenton CV upgrade, a hardshell case, and I’m throwing in a Kenton Pro Solo Mk2 MIDI-to-CV converter, a USB to 2-ch MIDI convertor, long USB cable.

Everything works great and is ready for any modern studio DAW, or adaptation to your external MIDI capable hardware!

The Kenton CV upgrade “3 socket” kit has three 3.5mm ports (easily interfaces with modular synthesis architecture!) or a MIDI-to-CV convertor (which I am including for free with this sale). The 3 inputs are: CV (pitch in), GATE (note on/off), FILT (filter control).

The synth has been with me for about 14 years. I serviced vintage synth and pro-audio gear for the last 30+ years, and this was one that I restored, upgraded, used for recording, and cared for. Every key contact works great, all adjustments have been calibrated, it stays in tune, and every feature works."

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."

TWO EKO RHYTHMAKER DRUM MACHINES GO TO BATTLE

video upload by Vintage Audio Institute Italia

"EKO RHYTHMAKER - BIX BOX MODEL VS REGULAR SIZE - One is big - one is small - which one sounds the best?

1970 - the Rhythmaker is an analog drum machine from Italy's EKO, originally makers of guitars and amps. The Rhythmaker was one of their earlier attempts at drum machines that would later result in the legendary EKO ComputeRhythm, used by all the real synth pros of the 1970s - or at least those who could get their hands on one.

These are two different versions of the same model Eko Rhythmaker analog vintage drum machine - with identical features and preset rhythms - but they sound quite different.

Both front panels has 16 push buttons for rhythms of standard fare : Jazz, Mambo, Rock etc. These could potentially be engaged all at the same time, giving you a cacophony of poly rhythms.

On both units we find 3 potentiometers : Volume, Tempo and Sustain, the last one is a bit of a mystery since it only seems to change the pitch of a few sounds.

Quite a novelty at the time, and the reason we like the Rhythmaker so much, is the individual volume control of each of the 7 drum sounds.
Here the bigger version offers longer sliders, to more precisely dial in the volume desired.

The smaller guy is a bit punchier and warmer sounding maybe?

Light up the comment section and let us hear your thoughts."

Redshift 6 - Multitimbral 6-Part Techno Tweak

video upload by Supercritical Synthesizers

"Redshift 6 - Multitimbral 6-Part Techno Tweak

All sounds in this demo come from the Redshift 6. The kick was sent out dry from the main output, while the other five parts — including the hi-hat, rumble, two LFO-bleep tracks, and a backing synth track — were routed through the auxiliary output. The aux output was fed into a Zoom Multistomp MS-100 pedal for delay and reverb.

With Redshift 6, multitimbrality is always at your fingertips. Its user interface is built from the ground up to enable a seamless workflow between mono- and multitimbral setups.

Under the hood, Redshift 6 is always multitimbral—there’s no need to switch to a specific multitimbral mode. A new multitimbral synth part can be activated with just the push of a button. Voice allocation, polyphony/paraphony, group settings, and other parameters are easily configured in the Parts view.

Multitimbrality allows Redshift 6 to function as multiple independent synthesizers. Each part can be polyphonic, paraphonic, or monophonic, and each can have its own unique character."

As you may know this model is kinda unfinished and originally having no sysex or midi implementation.

If battery will die you will lost all your sounds and the only way to restore them - is to buy original or retro cartridge.
