"Extremely beautiful custom-made solid wood case. The case was designed by me and custom-made using CNC for the Roli Seaboard 25 controller. It perfectly fits the Roli Seaboard 25 and is well-finished with no scratches or dents. You can strap it onto a board to perform live. The Roli Seaboard is in MINT condition with no sticky keys and is 100% functional. It comes with the original box."

THE KIMOPHONE - Saxophone Meets Keytar by Kimo Lobo
video upload by kimo lobo
Note this viddo is from 10 years ago.
"The KIMOPHONE is a breath controlled MIDI instrument that is one of a family of new musical instruments created by Kimo Lobo. Also introduced in this video is a MIDI Melodica, a PIATAR and a PIACELLO as well as the two-manual breath-controlled KIMOCORDION. These instruments are all prototypes and are the only ones in the world."
Thanks to Tom at Palmer's East for this one.
Catching Feelings on the Kimophone
video upload by kimo lobo
"I was recently contacted by the tv show Shark Tank and asked to make a 10 minute video pitching my Kimophone to the Sharks. This clip is the first couple minutes of that video. It is me playing the Justin Bieber song CATCHING FEELINGS on the Kimophone using a tenor sax sound alternating with electric guitar. Unfortunately the Sharks never chose to have me on the show so I decided to put this clip on Youtube since I've always really liked this song. Hope you enjoy it."
And the PIATAR:
PIATAR by Kimo Lobo
video upload by kimo lobo
"The PIATAR is a new musical instrument developed by Kimo Lobo. The PIATAR in this video is the only one in the world. It features a two octave MIDI keyboard and six strumable strings in an ornate wooden case. The left hand plays chords on the keyboard and the right hand strums or finger picks the strings. Chords are re-voiced in any of three neck positions. The sound is limited only to the MIDI sample library available. This demo uses a Roland steel six string guitar sample from an XV5080. Thanks to Charlie Labs for their wonderful Digitar."

Yamaha keytar as MIDI controller - SHS-10 playing Reface CS and CP
video upload by Alfonse
"Using two keyboards from the Reface series as sound modules for the SHS-10 to play via MIDI. The SHS-10 has a MIDI out only, which can be connected to the Reface keyboards via a standard MIDI cable.
The pitch bend, sustain and vibrato controls on the SHS-10 all map to controls on the Reface. On the CS, vibrato controls the LFO depth, switching to its highest setting when pressed. Since the LFO can be assigned to pitch, filter, amp, there are a number of possibilities for sound design here. On the CP, vibrato controls modulation, which is a feature unavailable from the front panel of the CP itself.
All drums were Logic drum synth sounds.

Our keyboard associate in the shop spent a couple hours testing every single key, switch, slider, wheel, pad, etc. (Yes, we pay him to have fun!) His only notes on playing condition: "Switches in modulation section took some working back and forth to get consistent operation. 'EMPHASIS' slider only seems to have audible effect at the top quarter of its travel range."

Yamaha SHS-10 - a mini FM keytar
video upload by Alfonse
"Music: 'Adventure Plank' (C) Copyright 2023 Alfonse
Download the track here: https://alfonse.bandcamp.com/track/ad...
Yamaha SHS-10 'Sholky' (1987)
This is a 2-op FM synth in the form of a mini-keytar, with pitch bend wheel and vibrato in easy reach of the left hand on the neck. It has a MIDI Out port, which allows you to use it to control other instruments.
The lead line uses voice 32 Horn, making use of the vibrato and portamento effects and the pitch bend wheel. The main drum pattern used was 03 Fusion 2. The track starts with 01 Rhythm and Blues 2, and 02 Fusion 1 is used for a fill-in at the middle and end of the final solo section.

Additional Tone Tweakers Listings, also on Reverb
"This is one of the original keytars. Connect it to your Prophet-5, strap it on and show that guitarist who's boss!
Since this is generally sold as a collectors item, the price is for an unserviced, untested unit without the special cable you’ll need to hook it up to a prophet-5. Any decent tech could make that cable for you, though the parts are likely not cheap unless they already have the type of cable required. We have no idea whether or not it would work once hooked up - we have no reason to believe it won’t, but, at the very least, this type of keyboard mechanism always needs to be properly rebuilt (bushings replaced, bus bar and j-wires cleaned, etc) in order to work properly. We would normally do this work but need our tech to focus his limited time on more profitable items."

X New Year - the first improv techno album from tamiX
video upload by tamiX (Nan Tang)
"Supporting tamiX, buy this album on Bandcamp: https://detund.bandcamp.com/album/x-n...
X New Year, the first album from tamiX, an artist skilled in improvising electronic music, records the live set at 024 in Beijing, a live house at Sanlitun, on the first day of new year night of 2022.
tamiX being an Buchla endorsed musician, played over 60-minute live set using rare Buchla 200e modular synthesizer system. It is an intensive exploration tamiX made to the music style she’s adept at: melodic techno, and created an unique tune integrating the features of experimental and musical.
To be affected by the distinctive glamour of tamiX, audiences should be in the live show, which is also the reason why tamiX barely released any record. As an electronic musician skilled in improvisation, compared with playing on the traditional music platforms, tamiX chose streaming video on YouTube instead, the leading medium in China and beyond the sea separately where audiences can watch all of her live show videos.
All things considered, the album X New Year includes the whole live show performance; meanwhile, the specific characteristics of tamiX playing electronic music improvisation are well demonstrated to its utmost.
Apart of the digital album, X New Year will be released as a special collector bundle, including a 44 pages photo book of tamiX's performance, and a USB sticker with more contents inside:
a) 60+ mins video of the performance
b) The trailer video
c) mp3 of the album
d) Uncompressed wav of the album
e) All photos in the photo book
f) Two picture of post cards
g) Pictures of the photo book
h) Cover picture of the album
i) Picture of my Buchla modules setup
Stay tuned for more infos about how to get the special collector bundle.
