Blacet Klang Werk

via this auction

"From the Blacet site: 'The Balanced Modulator with its bell-like, dissonant modulations is one of the key sound generators of electronic music. In operation, the two input frequencies are multiplied and the sum and difference output with the fundamentals suppressed. The resulting tones can exhibit rare beauty or serious cacophony. With a built-in envelope follower and three way voltage controlled waveform modulator, this module goes way beyond conventional ring modulators. Klang Werk packs a whole lot of modular synth into a small package, but doesn't take anything away from its use as a traditional module.'"

Harvestman Malgorithm

via this auction

"From the Harvestman site: 'Malgorithm is the world's first voltage-controlled bitcrusher. Both bit depth and sampling rate are independently controllable by knob or control voltage. Additionally, a primitive digital waveshaper can make your signal hurt, with eight different modes (and optional rectification afterwards.) Use the Malgorithm to bring external signals into aesthetic compliance with the rest of the Harvestman system. Enable eloquence through spectral profanity.'"

PROTOTYPE Roland SH-5 Synthesizer

via this auction

"Here's one for a museum! This is a prototype SH5 made by Roland. The story i got is this was found in a closed music store in the 90's and was sold, i believe being owned by two people since then, one person being a tech, and i am the third. I am a synthesizer manufacturer and have opened this up to verify it is a prototype, also A/B'ing it with a production model know first hand it even sounds different. Here is the good and bad

Bad first: it's missing the cover that holds the power cord in when not in use. Missing the bottom plate that is underneath the key bed, you wont notice it unless you are looking underneath...and the production model I believe is the same so if you find one that is being parted out you could get these two parts. I think two of the latches on the cover are broken. Lastly the separate band pass filter section is whacky, it overloads very easily. I initially was going to fix it but decided to keep it original.

The good: everything (except the separate BPF) works, and you also have the BPF in the "main" filter. All sliders, pots, keys etc work as they should and it sounds amazing!!!!! Unless the new owner sells this you will never see another prototype SH5 again, get it before someone else does!"

"Experimenting with the ring modulator.
I ´m using the next wave form square, sawtooth, sine.
I´m playing with a guitar modified using singles coil and a amplifier hand made."

"Demo of the ADDAC .wav-player module I received yesterday. This is only a very simple first exploration, I'm just scratching the surface. For more details see addac-website: andregoncalves.info/addac/?page_id=508

0'00" - 1'35": drumloop, startpoints modulated by sequencer, cv-range tweaked
1'35" - 2'23": speech-sample, cut-up style
2'23" - 3'23": drumloop, the ADDAC's envelope follower modulating Doepfer WASP filter
3'23" - 4'59": drumloop, experimenting with different sample rates and startpoints
4'59" - 11'13": TV-sample, eight and a half minutes long… at this file length, startpoint addressing is not 100% precise, but still very close - which adds some nice little extra randomness
11'14" - 12'31": another drumloop, experimenting with different sample rates and startpoints"
