"Polyphonically play analog brass, piano, clavichord, cello, violin and bass sounds using this hip vintage keyboard from the 70s. This keyboard offers split capability - you can play 1 sound or a combination of sounds on the lower 1/2 and another on the upper 1/2 of the keyboard. We love the string and brass sounds this thing makes...

The keyboard is split into 2 parts (left hand/right hand), each with Brass, Piano, Clavichord, Cello, and Violin Presets. It does have a very basic VCF (only can be used with brass preset) which has Attack, Decay, Emphasis (Resonance), and Contour (Cutoff). You can assign vibrato and Sustain too. The Brass sound can be pretty impressive (especially if you strip if of all its resonance- very fat bass). The filter self oscilates too. This comes in handy if you set the Attack/Decay to ascend/descend. It also comes with an attachable lid for easy transporting"

Ultimate Percussion K2 Vintage Analog Drum Synthesizer

via this auction
"this drum module has strange pad input jacks that I have no clue what they are. I triggered it with the aux inputs when I used it so if you plan to use pads for this you will need special plugs (4 prong female) that I have never seen before? There are 5 pad inputs 1 for the first 3 channels and channels 3,4,and,5 share a input and channels 6,7,8 share a input. Two channels are not working and some of the buttons to set the channels to be triggered by the built in sequencer don't work as well as the buttons to choose between the preset program and manual control. Some pots are scratchy not bad though and only a few. This also has a "micro sequencer" which are preset patterns that you can not edit or program and it is kinda useless because channel one is out and that is the preset kick. You can choose which channels are triggered by the sequencer with push buttons. Some of them don't stay down, some do but they all work. The same goes for the preset/manual switches. Channel 1 doesn't work and channel 6 doesn't work. There are knobs missing but all the pots and shafts are intact and some knobs are a bit mangled. Everything else works fine and this drum synth is in my opinion one of the best from that era. The synth is super rare and is totally useable for recording and sounds great."

Polyfusion Sound-A-Round Quad Panner

via this auction
"This vintage Polyfusion quad panner, model QP-1, is very rare- there were only a couple of hundred ever made. It is the Holy Grail for Polyfusion modular synth owners , but would also be of interest to anyone who owns a recording studio or quad P.A. system. It features a joystick with amazing real time control, which allows you to move the sound from any quadrant to any other quadrant instantly, reverse direction, etc. There is also an auto and manual mode, which lets you do this either way. It was made famous by Pink Floyd, who still use it in their live show- it is what they use to move the sound around so convincingly on their quad system."

Sequential Circuits model 800 sequencer

via this auction

"As one of the first sequencers, it features a stunning capacity of 16 notes, which can be recorded in real time or step mode. (You can, however, loop a 16 note sequence infinitely.) Visually it is very cool to watch, as the LED above each note lights up as the sequence runs."
