New Yahoo group dedicated to the Moog Minimoog Voyager.

Alesis Ion Demo

10 minute demo of what the Alesis ION can sound like. Pure demo of sounds rather than a musical track, so this is great if you just want to hear it raw. From ex_action_figure, Matt Moniz, via Vintage Synth Explorer.

Roland Alpha Juno 10

I was so tempted to just put this shot and let it be, but I'm no Elhardt. This is a dream synth mock up of a Roland Alpha Juno and a Roland D10 from Sealed on his Deep Synthesis page.

120 Years


Obsolete.com's 120 Years, 1870 to 1990. A great site documenting key dates in the history of electronic instruments.

Begins with The Musical Telegraph Elisha Grey USA 1876

Deep Synthesis Roland Alpha Juno Page Added

Sealed added a Roland Alpha Juno Page to his site. As usual it's good with links to resources, images, images and MP3. Check it out.

Korg Poly61 Shot


Via WC Olo Garb again. I just love this shot of the Korg Poly61.

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."
