The River Styx

FuckingSynthesizer | September 23, 2010 "During the boatride across the Styx Dante encounters a hostile soul from his past and kicks him in the face. The soul is then dragged under by the other damned."

Roland CR-78 CompuRhythm analogue drum machine

via this auction

"Also included is the uber-rare original TS-1 programming switch. Apart from the usual audio outs, it has sync-in (see my KMS-30 auction to sync it to midi!) and clock out on the rear. The clock out can either put out 8 or 16 notes, or a special, funky accented rhythm which is very creative and useful. I used to use this with my Jupiter 4 arpeggiator to great effect. Also on the rear are footswitch stop/start/fill inputs."

Korg KMS-30 MIDI Synchronizer

via this auction "Having a clear-out - this little device is invaluable if you want to sync midi devices and/or old-school drum machines and sequencers. It was primarily designed to act as a link between the (then) new standard of MIDI and Korg and Roland drum machines. It can however go much further than that, for example, I used to use this to sync my Drumtraks (midi) with a Linn LM1 (48ppqn) and Roland CR-78 (24ppqn). It has one midi input, two midi outputs, one sync input, two sync outputs and tape sync in/out. All the din syncs can be switched between 24/48 ppqn. It's master clock can be derived from Midi, tape sync or din sync and has an LED indicator. Manual included but you can read it here first"

Kenton Pro-2 dual midi CV converter

via this auction "The Pro-2's converter has two completely independent sections, A and B - these can control two separate synths on independent MIDI channels. Apart from basic Gate and CV (pitch) outputs, each section has two additional CV 'Aux' outputs; a common use is one for Filter Cutoff and one for Amplitude, although if your analogue synth is flexible enough they can control anything. Each section also has S-Trig outputs for you Moog owners :-) Usefully, the CV outs can be scaled to allow for out-of-tune analogue synths. Also present is: DIN sync output allowing you to sync up midi clock to old-school stuff like the Roland TR-808,TR-606,TB-303. Midi In,Out and Thru. Arpeggiator out - a simple clock out to sync up your synth's arpeggiator (Juno 6, etc?) - you can change the clock divide to suit. Also, and very rarely, this Pro-2 has a Kenton KADI output fitted and includes the super-rare lead too! To be honest I've never used the KADI output but I understand Kenton (and others?) can fit KADI inputs to drum machines like the TR-808, TR-606 and CR-78 - using this KADI equipped Pro-2 would allow you to play and program the (eg) TR-808's drum sounds from a midi keyboard. I have successfully used this Pro-2 with an Arp 2600, Odyssey, Minimoog, Jupiter 4, Jupiter 8, CR-78, etc."
