RARE DOEPFER STRINGPHASER MODULE

via this auction

"This module predates the Doepfer companies and was a magazine project for Formant Modular format.

It is one of Deiter's earliest works (for you fans).

It is a 3 phase LFO driving 3 seperate voltage controlled phaser cards, which can be switched series or parallel.

I have powered the module up (+/- 15V) and it works and sounds pretty cool. The LFO rate seems to be running at audio freq, so some tweeking or calibration is necessary. The LFO has 2 Osc. that can be mixed/ modulated. With the phasers in series, a synth generated percussion patch realy animated. I replaced a few knobs, because the skirts on the 'originals' were binding.

The wiring is a rats nest and the pots are dirty, but it should be easy to sort out.

This module is unique and you can be the only kid on youd block to have this in your modular!

Auction includes module and circuit description with schematics in German."

This one spotted and sent in via z of NEW ALLIANCE EAST





Native Instruments Introduces EVOLVE MUTATIONS 2

"Berlin, March 8th, 2010 - Native Instruments today introduced EVOLVE MUTATIONS 2, a new KONTAKT PLAYER-based instrument for movie, TV and game composers. Developed in collaboration with the renowned sound design house Heavyocity and powered by the industry-leading KONTAKT engine, EVOLVE MUTATIONS 2 includes a further arsenal of highly expressive instruments, rhythms and ambiences that can add profound depth and impact to any dramatic piece of music.

As the latest addition in Heavyocity's widely acclaimed "Evolve" series, EVOLVE MUTATIONS 2 contains over 300 new sounds based on 2 GByte of exclusive high-quality samples. The material is organized into four categories that provide the crucial elements for powerful scores: "Rhythmic Suites" include stirring percussive and tonal loops complete with individual slices and keymapping; "Percussive Kits" allow the creation of original percussive beds; "Stings & Transitions" support a composition with striking and suspenseful transitional elements; "Tonality & FX" provide a range of highly expressive, evocative instruments and pads.

EVOLVE MUTATIONS 2 also introduces the new "Trigger FX" feature, a versatile and intuitive sound processing section that takes advantage of KONTAKT's comprehensive effects capabilities. With "Trigger FX", the keys within a certain octave on the keyboard activate different specific sound treatments including saturation, panning, delay effects and more, which can be intuitively layered and combined to create spectacular special effects and transformations on the fly.

EVOLVE MUTATIONS 2 offers intuitive playback and sound shaping functionality within the free KONTAKT PLAYER software, and can also be loaded into the full version of the KONTAKT 4 sampler for advanced sound editing.

EVOLVE MUTATIONS 2 is available for download purchase in the NI Online Shop for $119 / 99 EUR. A DVD bundle that combines both EVOLVE MUTATIONS products is also available for $169 / 149 EUR.

Prophet VS rackmount Vector Synth + two RAM Cartridges

via this auction

"This synth was made in 1986 by Sequential Circuits, Inc. It has a hybrid sound architecture; digital waveform oscillators and classic Prophet analog filters. First to introduce digital vector synthesis - cool joystick mixing of four oscillators per voice. 8 voice polyphonic in single mode or 4 voices in split and double modes. Monophonic in unison mode. Excellent MIDI implementation including external MIDI clock sync for the arpeggiator.

This unit was fully calibrated by Wine Country Productions (official Sequential Circuits service company) in June 1996 and a Certificate of Restoration is included."

KORG M50 in Custom Case Minus Keys

via this auction
"This item came to us with an unusable,busted up keybed & chassis ...
apparently something very heavy fell on the keyboard section and completely destroyed the keybed rendering it useless & unrepairable, the actual synth was completely untouched and looks like new!
so to avoid discarding a great sounding synth, we at Purplelover's saved the synth section of this M50 by removing the busted up parts, revamped its package and housed it in a very cool free standing pine box.
and as you can see, the "fix" didn't come out half bad!
the synth is now living its life as a "sort of a "tabletop module, with all the features and function the M50 has to offer (except the keyboard of course) & it sounds awesome

just midi into your favorite keyboard,synth or controller
everything works perfectly and as it should !

upgraded to latest version OS 1.10 and includes 512MB SD card..."
