Crazy Vincent SELLS 100 synths & keeps 26! EP1 = intro, synth list, and new studio space.

video upload by Vincent Presley

"After 2 years of crazy synth buying, Vincent has the new Secret Records studio down to a mere 26 synthesizers that he claims are better than the rest.....
Before you watch, maybe you can make your own list of what you would have kept or make some guesses about what Crazy Vincent kept. Remember..... he's not like other people.

Tubbutec TRS-Bridge - 4x4 TRS MIDI router and merger

video upload by Tubbutec

"TRS Bridge is a midi router, merger and splitter with four TRS-style inputs and four TRS outputs.
MIDI messages received at the inputs can be forwarded to one or multiple MIDI outputs.
Similarly each of the outputs can receive MIDI messages from one or multiple inputs.
TRS Bridge can set these routes in a simple modes for all types of MIDI messages, but it is also possible to route different kinds of messages differently."

Routes and merges midi data, four midi inputs and outputs

4x TRS MIDI inputs, 4x TRS MIDI outputs
Can route, split and merge MIDI streams
Independent MIDI flow settings for notes/CC (red), clock (blue) and sysex (yellow)
Easy to use user interface, quickly change routes, color coded routes and events.
MIDI event monitor with color coding for various message types
Save and recall up to 8 routing settings
Automatically accepts both TRS A and TRS B at the inputs
Outputs individually selectable between TRS A and TRS B
Convert between TRS A and TRS B
Save detach: Will send note off messages if a connection is detached
Auto-restarter: Will send re-sync new clock connections automatically
Sysex Buffer: Buffers Sysex messages if necessary in order to merge them
Adjustable LED brightness
Full galvanic separation of inputs – no ground loops.

Merging and routing

Each of the MIDI inputs can be connected to one or more of the MIDI outputs. Similarly each of the MIDI outputs can receive MIDI data from one or multiple inputs.
TRS Bridge can set these routes in a simple modes for all types of MIDI messages, but it is also possible to route different kinds of messages differently:

NOTE AND CONTROLLER DATA
These are all the midi messages that can be merged without any issues. If two devices send midi at the same time, data will be interleaved and sent to the receiving device.

CLOCK DATA
Clock data can not be merged, only one midi clock stream can be used at a time. When changing the routing, TRS Bridge makes sure that each output only receives clock from a single input.

SYSEX DATA
Sysex data is even trickier to handle than clock data, because sysex messages can have an arbitrary length. if multiple sysex streams are received simultaneously, USB bridge A buffers the data and will forward it to the receiver as soon as possible. This way sysex messages are merged as well.

"Excellent sounding and working example of Korg's Mono/Poly. This one was just cleaned internally, calibrated and has a fresh midi kit installed from ModPoly.

A true classic of the late pre-MIDI era, the Korg Mono/Poly is a four oscillator monster, which can be used in a variety of voice modes. The spec on paper for the Mono/Poly is pretty amazing: four oscillators, two LFOs, two ADSRs, poly, unison, and chord memory modes, arpeggiator, and the tremendous cross modulation and frequency modulation section. The sound is rich, detailed, and expressive.

Cosmetically the graphics and paint are sharp and clean with nothing out of the ordinary, wood sides show average wear and tear.

Serial no. 373495"

MPC Electronics MPC-1 with Tubbutec uniPulse MIDI retrofit

video upload by Harry Axten

"Pretty rare British-made drum machine from 1981, originally intended to interface with the Sinclair ZX81 computer. I’ve installed Tubbutec’s excellent uniPulse MIDI retrofit in this, using the existing sync socket for the MIDI input. The drum voices are very responsive to playing dynamics, which I was pleased to find works great with the uniPulse’s velocity-sensitive outputs.

The sequencer board in this one was wrecked by a battery leak, which is sadly very common in these. The leakage also got onto the main analogue board, although fortunately not as badly. It ate up three of the potentiometers for the Tom 4 voice, and I haven't yet located suitable replacements, hence those controls being missing and blanked off; but everything else is now working as it should, having cleaned up corroded board traces and replaced a number of damaged components."

Superbooth 2023: Tubbutec - MC2oh2 An Upgraded 202

video upload by sonicstate

"At Superbooth 2023, we spoke to Tobias from Tubbutec about the company's latest offerings. First up is the MC2oh2 mod, which is now available for €250. It's an upgrade for the original MC202, and brings a range of new features, including a 32-pattern sequencer with chaining capabilities, arpeggiator with Euclidean mode, and extra modulations such as LFOs and envelopes. The mod also adds noise with various noise colors. The MC202 mod will be available as a kit for the RE202 project by DinSync, which is a replica of the original MC202. Tobias also presented a microtune module, which is a MIDI 2CV/CV2MIDI and quantizer with clock generator. It's a versatile module that can load scales from an SD card, work microtonally, and tune VCOs. It's available for €340 for the base unit and €171 and €84 for expanders.

Tobias also showcased the 6mod6, a TR606 module with original circuitry but with extra flexibility and functionality. The 6equencer sequencer is built to compliment the 6mod6 but can send TR sequencing wherever you choose. It has eight channels for triggering or gating with a range of functions such as song mode, probability, swing, and more. Tubbutec also offers vintage synthesizer upgrades, including a universal interface for string machines and organs that can be used to interface with MIDI and an interface for Yamaha SK20, SK30, and SK50D synthesizers that adds MIDI input, an additional LFO, and other useful features. The soldering level required for the MC202 mod is minimal, but Tubbutec provides a list of synth techs around the world who can perform the installation for anyone with a fear of soldering."
