No title link, just the shot via this auction. Click the image for the full effect.

Update: as always check out the comments directly below these posts for what others have to say. You never know what you might find. Always be careful and always use good judgment. I'm just grabbing the info and shots.

Circuit Bent Crumar Performer

Title link takes you to shots pulled via this auction. Not sure if this is technically bent or modded - no details are up yet but you can see the switches and knob on the left of the keyboard.

Univox MAXI-KORG T-3

Title link takes you to shots pulled via this auction.

Details:
"an early model from 1975 has 2 VCOs , lpf/hpf filter with resonance (not self oscillating set with "bright" switch - 3 positions), simple envelope (AD) but with various switches: sustain / release SWITCHES, so it is a sort of AD(S/R).., it has a nice ringmod - the 800DV consists of 2 channels, so in fact it has 2 filters (per channel), 2 VCOs etc.. but it's called "traveller" instead of cutoff ;) and again "singing" for sustained sound (release/decay)- so the envelope is "special" ,too but not a full adsr (attack, singing level, mode+range ctrl)"

The Other Lemur - The Slime-o-tron MIDI Controller

A couple of shots via pt's flickr set. You can see the MIDItron interface on MAKE:. The set also has the pretty cool looking controller(last shot below). There's no info there, but I'm guessing it's a multi-ribbon controller?

Oberheim Four Voice with MIDI

Title link takes you to shots pulled via this auction. Sent my way via Boris.

Details:
"Serial# 0569 Comes with Encore Electronics 8 channel Midi CV converter with all the necessary cables to midi the 4 voices. Comes with carrying case with wheels but needs new foam. The 4 voice was one of the first polyphonic synths. Each of the 4 Synthesizer Expander Modules ( SEMs ) can be assigned to a different note. Splitting voices between modules is also possible. So is a monophonic unison mode. A single voice is surprisingly powerful, offering 2 oscillators, 2 envelopes (1 for filter, 1 for volume), an LFO, pulse width modulation and a multimode filter with sweepable mode (which few synths offered). The programmer module allows fast saving and recall of programmed sounds. Unbelievably FAT and warm. Even a single SEM kicks a$$ - This is REAL analog! In unison mode, it allows EIGHT oscillators per key. 4 x Synthesizer Expander Module ( SEM ) Keyboard Output module Polyphonic Keyboard module Programmer module "
