TRADE: Minimoog for New Teeth

via this craigslist post
"BARTER vintage minimoog model D for new teeth. Preferably dentures. This is the famous Dr. Moog's, first complete synthezier to hit the tours of many a band! "minimoog model D" with a 'phat sound' thats hard to duplicate let alone beat!! It is in great shape, just a little wear and tear as it sat in storage for 30 years! It might need a tune-up, i am not sure,as i have never played a synthesizer. But i am sure that when you see it, you'll agree that its a real beauty!! Serial # is 6746 It was built around '74-'75 Thats about halfway through the entire production of these classics. Own apiece of history and while your add it, play a piece of history too!! Barter for dentures. Everything else is non- negotiable! Its "adios" if you offer anything else!!" sent my way via Kerry. If you are an prosthodontist, this might just be your lucky day...

Very basic modular synth made in Reaktor

YouTube via nukebass.
"A very basic DIY tutorial to beginners (like me) showing how to build a basic modular synthesizer in FIVE MINUTES inside Reaktor 5.1. Actually, I made this video to test Camtasia Recorder, a cool software to make videos like this, capturing your desktop activity.

Reaktor itself, comes with a large variety of tools to make modular audio stuff... powerful software indeed! You can build virtually ANYTHING you would imagine regarding audio effects or instruments! Wish I would have plenty of patience and time to dive more deeper into it. Worth your every effort!"

Tetra Maps Diabolical EX-800 Echobox

YouTube via bigcitymusic
"We're using the super unique Signal Arts Tetra Maps Sequencer to run the Diabolical Devices modified Korg EX-800 into the SubDecay Echobox delay pedal.

The Tetra Maps is unlike any other sequencer. You can sequence up to thirty-two MIDI channels as well as four CV and gate outputs for modular and analog synths. The Tetra Maps is not your conventional sequencer, although you could do some pretty normal sequencing if you wanted. The Tetra allows you to fire off multiple sequences at the same time, on the same channel or on different ones. Crazy chasing sequences, continuous controller mayhem, and MIDI to CV are all included in this genius piece.

The Diabolical Devices EX-800 sounds good! We forgot to mention in the last video that you can also process external sounds via the 1/4" jack on the front. Nice.

The Echobox delay pedal from SubDecay is an incredible sounding pedal. Especially for the price! It's a pretty standard delay with the very welcome feature of LFO modulation to the echoes. From subtle pitch modulations to all out swishing echo madness, SubDecay has outdone themselves. And yes. It will self oscillate, sending your sounds into the stratosphere and beyond."

1976 Moog Minimoog

via this auction
"It has 3 voltage controlled oscillators. Each one with 6 waveforms to select. An octave switch is available for each oscillator to go from Lo,32',16',8',4' and up to 2'. Also VCO's 2 and 3 can be detuned against VCO 1's frequency. Each oscillator has its own volume control and On/Off switch. There is an external input to put your own audio signal through the Moog filter.
A Pink/White noise source is also supplied with its own On/Off switch and volume control. Then you can put your signal through the classic Moog 24db 4 pole filter which has its own envelope generator. Another envelope generator is supplied for the amplifier. Oscillator 3 is the low frequency oscillator source which can be switched out of keyboard control.And switched into either/or both VCO 1 and 2 or the Filter.The amount being controlled by the modulation wheel.A noise source can also be mixed into the LFO/VCO 3 modulating signal.
A pitch bend wheel with a center position is to the left of the modulation wheel. The synth also has a switchable and fully adjustable glide control. A global tune knob is fitted. An A440 signal can be switched in to tune up the synth. A headphone output with its own volume control is supplied. And the main output is able to be toggled On/Off and level adjusted. There are 3 ext control jack inputs for the Filter,Oscillators and Amplifier. There are high and low audio outputs and the audio in socket as well. All of this is controlled by a 44 note 3 1/2 octave F to C keyboard."

SIEL DK700 MIDI Master Synthesizer

via this auction
"The DK700 is a polyphonic synthesizer with voice assignment. It actually contains 6 complete and individual synth modules (termed voices or channels). It is fully programmable and able to store up to 73 programs in its memory when in DK700 mode and 55 patches for the simultaneous control of slaves when in master keyboard mode. Each voice contains two digitally controlled oscillators (to ensure the best pitch reliability on the whole extension of the wall tempered scale) with analog waveforms. It also comprises a 24 dB/octave low pass Voltage-controlled filter and an envelope generator; this means that the DK700 has 12 oscillators, 6 filters, 6 envelope generators and 4 low frequency oscillators providing parallel modulations of parameters such as pitches, square waves P.W., filters. All this is controlled by specific controls and memorized in the heart of the DK700; the "Programming Unit", which also provides to the management of the 73 timbric programs and 55 patches.

The DK700 is basically an updated version of the Siel Opera 6 with added midi-functions. It's quite rare and could be regarded as one of the best Siel ever built. Unlike the DK70/80, the DK700 has six filters and three LFOs to shape your sounds. Once you edited the sound you had in mind, there are plenty of memory patches to store it. This synth has a fat tone even without using a Chorus-unit. The sounds are very versatile and analogue. From synth-horns to weird effects, the Siel does it all with ease."

Roland MC-202 MicroComposer Modded

via this auction

Details on the mod via the auction:
"I've put a little mod in there. I've add a three position switch. It allows the LFO to sweep up tp 40 seconds (Original is only about 10 seconds). A very usefull function for making trance music. Also it can switch to super fast sweep. Of course, you can put it back to Normal Mode for original LFO speed too."
