WC Olo Garb

Great synth site via Deep Synthesis Journal. Check out the gear list for some oddities including the Polish APS Analog Drum Machines I posted on below, an Electro Harmonix vocoder including a great mp3 of it, and something called an Amstrad Fidelity CKX-100 Computerphonic that closely resembles an EMU EMax II. More models inlcuding shots and mp3s via title link.

Amstrad Fidelity CKX-100

APS Mini Rhythm MR 3201 & Auto Rhythm

Don't see these everyday. Two Polish analog drum machines. Title link takes you to main gear list of site. Scrool down to drum machines for these.

APS Mini Rhythm MR 3201 MP3 Sounds pretty tight.

"32 rhythms Polish analog drum machine from the Communist era. Has 6 knobs: bass, snare and hihat volume, global tempo, fine tempo, main volume. Goes together with a foot switch that has 2 buttons: start/stop and intro/fill-in. These buttons are also on the main unit and are activated when the foot switch is unplugged."

APS Auto Rhythm - MP3

"The same as APS Mini, but more functions. 32 rhythms, 8 instruments [3 in Mini], volume of each instrument adjustable. Also the brightness of the snare can be modified. Apart from the standard [and indispensable] buttons start/stop and intro/fillin there's a 'delay stop' button, which, if pressed, stops the machine after a few seconds. Two LEDs, the green one for beat down and the red one for quarter note. Whereas I love the analog sound of APS Mini, the Auto samples seem to sound a bit rigid."

Korg Microcontrol - New Flickr Shot

Warm shot of the Microntrol.

Casio VZ1

Title link takes you to a site on the Casio VZ1 including some samples. Found it on Vintage Synth Explorer. Vintage Synth link will take you a discussion on the synth.

The Redsound Elevata that wasn't

Redsound Elevata Darkstar Keyboard mock-up. I beleive this was taken at a tradeshow, either the Musikmesse or NAMM. It never made it to production. Title link takes you to a couple of more shots.
