Vintage 1980's Casio CZ-1000 Digital Synthesizer

via this auction
" Used by many famous bands (Erasure, Radiohead among others), it is a digital synth with great programming capabilities and a nice variety of analog-like traits and sounds. It is equipped with a 8-stage envelope design. It uses Phase Distortion (PD) synthesis for the great sounds, similar to the Yamaha DX synthesizers. It also has four types of vibrato settings, a simple LFO-type section with triangle, square, ramp up or down waveforms as well as rate, depth and delay settings. Four Portamento adds classic glide effect. It has oscillators with 4-note polyphony, a built-in noise and ring modulation and is MIDI equipped with 4 monophonic multitimbral parts.You can also create lots of new sounds, notably percussive sounds.Great for standard stage/studio work, the synth is very cool strapped as a guitar (it is also battery operated) for stand-up stage performances."

The Fairlight library for Reason

"Five months in the making, my new Refill "Fairlight CMI Legacy" is now available from PowerFX.com. All music examples and sound programming by Patrick Fridh Aka Bitley™."

Update via BITLEY™ in the comments:
"That was actually a mistake of mine. The Fairlight is sampled at 16/44.1 but the rest is 24 bit / 44.1 khz. It doesn't have to be so amazing in this case either since the Fairlight IIx was an 8 bit machine. All you need to know is that it's perfectly recorded. ;)"

"Another self generating patch. Again, the LFO is modulated by the S&H that it is triggering. Some of the crunchyness went away when I went to get the camera, but that'll happen with modulars."

"This is the song PokerFace by Lady GaGa on I-Phone Apps - by Applegirl"
Anyone make out the first app? Star Amateepo? She says the fourth is "analog app." Not sure what that is.
