"ELKA X25 Keyboard / Organ / Synthesizer, in VGC.

Serial Number 4058.

This is a vintage, circa 1980 to 1984? proffessional instrument, from Italian manufacturer ELKA."

Anyone know more about these?

Update via organfairy:
"The ELKA X-25 was produced from 1984 to 1988 or 89 when it was replaced with the X-45. It is the portable version of the EP-8 and a little brother to the X-30. It is an analog/digital hybrid design - as far as I remember based on the 80C51 microprocessor. There were also a version with accordeon buttons available. "

Jomox T-Resonator + Moog Bass MuRF


YouTube via bigcitymusic
"Yes, we made a another T-Resonator Video. There is a specific point to this one though! You can actually add your own extra loop to the feedback matrix. The right output goes to a limiter then to an amp. The left output is fed into the Bass MuRF, the out of the MuRF is fed back into the Jomox right in. In this video we are not feeding anything into the T-Resonator's mono input, we're just using it's own sound, generating feedback. You could use just about anything in the loop. Another fun combination was the guitar into the Jomox input and a phaser in the loop."

BeatMachine Fun!


YouTube via siedgey
"Hi guys,

There was a feature on the Youtube front page today of a video of a guy using "BeatMachine". It's a smart piece of software that uses your webcam to make a virtual drum machine on pretty much anything!

I set it up in about 15 mins for a laugh, it's pretty good fun! With a bit of fiddling you could import your own samples into it too.

This is a video of the first thing I did with it, sorry it's pretty dull but it shows what you can do with a large amount of geekiness and a small amount of time. :)

Jen SX1000 Black and White

"The Jen SX1000 was released in 1977 for £210 and was described as "A fine box for mucking around with, or for learning about Synthesis. A first class first time buy"
It was eventually discontinued in 1982.

It has a short 37 note C to C keyboard and 24 pragramming controls with which you can make your own crazy sounds, or program in some of the suggested sounds on the 7 printed sheets that sit over the controlls. The settings you can make from these sheets are as follows.
Brass 1 and 2, Hammond Organ 1 and 2, Human Voice 1 and 2, Violin, Cello, Synthesizer, Electric Drum, Piano and Flute. There is also a blank sheet which you can record your own settings."

"The SX-1000, also called the "Synthetone", is a monophonic synthesizer with a 3-octave, 37-note keyboard and a black front panel. It makes huge / fat, analogue lead and bass sounds."
Update via Till "Qwave" Kopper in the comments:
"There are no white ones. The white thing you see is a paper wit punched-out knobs to mark your own setting or the preprinted factory ones. The factories had two sounds on one card: one marked red, the other blue. You can see the red and blue names on the picture of the white one just above the keys in the middle of the keyboard range.
Just have a look at the white ones auction's rear: you can see the paper not lying perfectly flat on the front panel.

So there are no white Jen Synthetone SX 1000 known to exist, although so many claim to see one. But all pictures of white ones show these papers.

I got a Jen SX 1000 with these paper cards. A real nice beginners synth. And the filter of it is a 24 dB filter. Some people always tell it is 12 dB. Just listen to it or have a look at the schematics here.


keep on turning these knobs
