via this auction
As always, research prices.
"This OBERHEIM MATRIX 6 is NEW, never used. It FEATURES EXTRAORDINARILY VERSATILE MODULATION ROUTING. The keyboard has AFTERTOUCH and VELOCITY sensitivity, and has ANALOG oscillators and filter, digitally controlled for stability

TWO DCOs, 3 MULTI-MODE ENVELOPE GENERATORS, TWO LFOs, AND WONDERFUL EXOTICS LIKE PORTAMENTO MODULATION BY VELOCITY... Hard-to-beat list of SOURCES and DESTINATIONS TRANSPOSABLE SPLITS AND MORE. Oberheim put some of their highly-sought-after OBERHEIM SYSTEMIZER into the Matrix 6."

MOOG MEMORYMOOG + PLUS with Aftertouch & Velocity

via this auction
"The Legendary MEMORYMOOG PLUS, with ADDED AFTERTOUCH, brought to you out of safe seclusion, nearly as pristine as the day it was manufactured.

The FATTEST, RICHEST MOOG SOUND MADE in a non-modular system. ALL THE CONTROLS AND # OF VCOS OF THE CLASSIC MINIMOOG X 6!

That's right: 3 VCO's per voice, and there are SIX VOICES, 18 VCO's, 12 ADSR Envelope Generators, 6 VCFs, with Program Memory and ANALOG VCO AUTOTUNE (Thank God!) Same controls, same location. Legendary CEM VCO and VCF. And sure, you can make the VCO's "beat" and "roll" with the FINE TUNE vernier control. This is the coveted PLUS version, with refined and updated POWER SUPPLY, MIDI and SEQUENCER.

AND, unlike any other MemoryMoog Plus, this one has AFTERTOUCH (aka Pressure Sensing) and VELOCITY Sensing Keyboard (also available WITHOUT it).

SEE THE PLATE?

THAT'S THE EXTERNAL CONFIRMATION OF THE "PLUS" FUNCTIONS AVAILABLE ON THIS DELUXE MODEL. (INTERNAL MODS ARE ALSO PART OF THE PACKAGE, INCLUDING UPGRADED POWER SUPPLY)."

MINT MAXED MOOG MINIMOOG with Aftertouch

via this auction

"THE REAL THING: The Legendary MINIMOOG, in ABSOLUTELY MINT condition,
fully restored by EME (40 years experience) and functioning perfectly.

WITH AFTERTOUCH AND VELOCITY SENSING ADDED TO THE KEYBOARD!!

MAIN ELECTRONICS UPDATED FOR MORE STABLE VCO'S.

NOW "THE SOUND" WITH THE EXPRESSIVENESS ONLY AN AFTERTOUCH KEYBOARD GIVES.

Even Analog Modeling synths exhibit "zipper noise" in their quantizing an analog phenomenon: the opening and closing of a filter. You'll hear the difference immediately. This thing is ORGANIC next to digital, or MINIMOOG re-creations. And of course that individual-component-style Moog Ladder filter shapes and squeezes each note with that unmistakably MOOG timbre control Thank you so much Bob, wherever you are.

The MINIMOOG had several VCO versions. While they all generate the sound the same way, (so "the sound" is always there no matter which version you use) the earlier versions tended to temperature-sensitive at times, and thus drifted in tuning, requiring constant tweaking during performance. That is what you will likely get on other Minimoogs that show up. SOLUTION: Confirm the VCO's are of the LATEST REV. That's what's shown below, and included and calibrated in the MicroMoog MAX here. These were only available in the very latest MiniMoogs.

EXTERNAL CONTROL INPUTS. 0-10VDC.

The AFTERTOUCH/VELOCITY are routed, with plugs, to these inputs.

WANT EVEN MORE CONTROL? Inquire about the available OPTION 2,
which brings the several other Aftertouch and Velocity controls and outputs
out onto the front or rear panel, as you order.

ACCESSORY POWER SOCKETS. Several external options, like ribbon controller, sequencer, etc. were made available for the MiniMoog and these jacks allow some of them to be powered. Note the 50mA rating."

Dowser is Hiroyuki Nagashima, Masateru Terai and Takashi Miyagawa. Since their musical approach varies with every piece, their music cannot be described in short, however, it always evokes visual images. Using vintage synthesizers such as EMS, Buchla and latest DSP, the music they produce has sometimes barbaric and sometimes vulnerable feel.They have been working with several leading film directors, including Sogo Ishii, Katsuhiro Otomo, Kunitoshi Manda and Shinji Aoyama."

Mark Jenkin's "The iPad Album" Synth List

See the update in this post. Note "The iPad Album" precedes the new Gorillaz iPad album and technically appears to be the first commercially available album made with the iPad. However it is worth noting iMatik made withe the iPhone preceded both. See this post for reference. One thing that hasn't been done from what I can tell is an album produced and mixed on the iPad or iPhone from start to finish. Note: "Mark Jenkins is the author of "Analog Synthesizers" available worldwide through Amazon(posted here) and an internationally published music technology author and keyboard collector."
