Crumar Bit One

via this auction

"This is a fairly rare crumar Bit one with the SSM2044 vcf's. I compared the two (other version more common has CEM3328 vcf's) with the same patches loaded and on most sounds it's fairly hard to tell much difference. But I think overall these are a little more punchy and the others maybe more excelling on ethereal kinds of sounds"

Korg Poly-61

via this auction

"Korg Poly-61 Synthesizer, a classic keyboard and Korg's response to the Roland Juno. Like the Juno, it has DCOs going through analog filters, but unlike the Roland, it has two oscillators, with detune and interval settings. It also has a great arpeggiator."

THE MICROTONIC PATTERNARIUM and µTonic Beta

"The MicroTonic Patternarium. You could describe Patternarium as an online collaborative patch randomizer. It continuously generates new sounds and rhythms for MicroTonic through principles of evolution. You get to vote on whether rhythms should prosper and procreate or if they should die. Call it musical darwinism - survival of the phattest.

Seriously, go there, even if you don't own MicroTonic. It is great fun. Promise"

EMS Synthi Aks connected with a CV/GATE converter box to x0xb0x

YouTube via ofiroman123 — June 06, 2010 — "the synthi needs a converter box to convert the CV 0.32 volt / octave to 1 volt octave
and the gate to about 4 volt.
the x0xbox here gets midi notes and convets them to cv/gate signals and then
the box converts it to fit"

4ms Clock Divider

via The B-Roll where you'll find more pics, details and a demo.

"I finally got a chance to test out the new module tonight. It’s called the Rotating Clock Divider. It’s such a simple concept it’s surprising it took so long for the design to come to light. Basically it does exactly what it says. It takes a clock and divides it. There are plenty of other clock dividers out there but for some reason the divisions have always gone in multiples of 2. So no matter how you patch it everything always hits on the beat. It can make most rhythms feel cold and lifeless. What the Rotating clock divider does is simply provide an incremental division, so output 1 is /1, output 2 is /2, output 3 is /3 and so on. So what this allows for is things can be triggered on the offbeat."
