YouTube via boobtube356
"Two LFOs at different rates from Doepfer A-143-3 create a varying rhythm using the Doepfer A-163 divider, A-165 trigger modifier, and A-166 logic. The A-160 and 161 are used to sequence Cwejman VCO-2RM. All sounds are Doepfer A-117 ring modded with either VCO-2RM or A-143-3 at audio rate."

1970s Godley & Creme Gizmotron Demo Record

YouTube via jafafah0ts. via http://twitter.com/JafafaHots
"A vintage flexidisc promoting a rare and short-lived product, the Godley & Creme Gizmotron (a.k.a. Gizmo), a device that allowed guitarists to play sustained notes and chords on their guitars. Shown is the six-string variation. A bass version was also made."
via wikipedia:
"According to Paul Gambaccini's sleeve notes for Consequences,[1] 10cc were unable to afford an orchestra for their early albums, so Creme and Godley imagined an effects unit that would enable a guitar to produce violin-like sounds (this was some years before the introduction of the polyphonic synthesiser and long before the development of digital sampling).

The resulting device, a small box which was attached to the bridge of the guitar, consisted of six small motor-driven wheels, whose continuous bowing action was activated by pressing one or all of keys located on the top of the unit. Pressing a key would bow the corresponding string, while the other hand remained free to fret single notes or full chords."

Elka Synthex with MIDI

via this auction
"This model is a MIDI retrofitted model of the first generation (the best sounding one), serial number pre-1xxx, and it has never seen a repair lab in its lifetime. It works better than a swiss watch.

This Synthex is the 11th I am selling in the past 10 years, all of them have gone to foreign countries as far as Australia, so do not worry about packing, shipping and payment procedures, it will be all be taken care of properly."

TKB split into four zones, pressure is scaled then modulates pitch and lfo speed, and the A-D outs controlling pitch, waveshape and wave mult. and vc wave on the NTO variable... and filter cutoff on the creature!! YES mad craziness!"

Rare Polyfusion Modular in Moog Format

via this auction

"This is truly a one-of-a-kind item! These are Polyfusion modular synthesizer modules in a Moog format. When Polyfusion started, they made these modules to fit into a Moog modular system before they had developed their own format. These are likely the only modules of this type known to exist!

The modules include:
- Two Variable Formant Filters - each with 3 bands of variable width, frequency, and level for sculpting sounds.
- Dual Ring Modulator for wonderful clangorous sounds.
- Dual Sample & Hold module for wonderful modulations.

These modules were originally housed in a wooden box with a simple power supply. I put them into a Synthesizers.com rack and filled the open space with a Synthesizers.com Q134 multiples module. All of these are included in the auction. I also had MOTM power connectors added but these can easily be switched for any +/-15V supply.

These modules were part of Martin Newcomb's Museum of Synthesizer Technology in the 1990s. They are shown on page 78 of his wonderful book on the museum and can be seen in the following You-Tube video at around 2:00. This is an opportunity to own a truly unique part of synthesizer history!"
