The Speak & Math

We all know about the Speak & Spell. Check out the Speak & Math. Title link takes you to a post on casperelectronics. Thanks goes to alex in the comments of this post.

This one obviously circuit bent.

Analog Synthesizers on YouTube



You might recognize this one from this previous post. When I put it up, Marc Doty was the name on the video. Now it's AutomaticGainsay. I thought it was kind of interesting considering he also put up the videos on the Minimoog and the Roland SH1000 below.

Update: I just found out this actual unit is up for auction here. Shots saved here for posterity. Also, there appears to be a second one for auction here. As always, be careful on the bay.

2006 MTV Movie Awards - Gnarls Barkley on YouTube



Boba Fett on the Hammond B3, and a Jedi on the Wurli and synth. Anyone know what synth that is? I'm guessing it's the Korg MicroPreset/M500. There's also what looks like a Korg MS2000 behind Chewy. And of course, Chewy steals the show on drums. BTW, my almost three year old daughter is on a huge Chewy kick at the moment. She's like, "what's he dooooing?!" Hopefully she will continue to appreciate synths.

SKnote

Remember the REALTHING analog VST hybrid synth? Title link takes you to SKnote, the makers of the REALTHING. You'll find a number of synth related software and hardware including, Grainz (a granular soft synth), Voices (a formant soft synth), Traks (a time stretching VSTi), Tolcbocs (a VSTi vocoder), hardware ribbon, breath, shaker, xyz plane controller (pictured), and much more. If you know more about their products please feel free to comment.

Chrome Waldorf Microwave

1 of 2 ever made according to the anonymous sender of this shot. The knobs and buttons are metal, not plastic.

"it's one of two and it is chromium-plated, not silver. bcoz it is like a mirror, it is hard to take a picture of it. the "red-knob" is made of aluminium (also the other knobs-caps are metal and not plastic)."

Note the limited green Microwave under it. Image takes you to a slightly bigger shot and the title link takes you to the full size.

On The Inside


31 shots of the inside of various synths including the following. Check out the message inside the Sequential Drumtraks. Too cool. ARP Quadra Elka Synthex Oberheim OBXa Oberheim Xpander Roland Jupiter 6 Roland Jupiter 8 Roland TB-303 Roland TR-808 Roland SH-2000 Roland Vocoder Plus RSF DD30 RSF Kobol Sequential Drumtraks Sequential Pro One Sequential Prophet 5 Sequential Prophet 600 Yamaha CS40M Yamaha CS80 Yamaha SK-50

The Pile

Now, that's one mess I'd be a we bit excited to run into. I want that one octave thing in the left, center. Anyone know what that is? The one the pink thing's eyelashes are pointing to. Title link takes you to the post on Sendling.
