MIDI modified Speak and Spell - Synthesizer

via this auction

"For sale is one early-model (push-button) Speak & Spell, modified with MIDI in via Highly Liquid's MIDISpeak 2 MIDI retrofit kit. Everything is functioning perfectly as it should. Cosmetic condition is excellent on this unit, no major blemishes to speak of. Battery contacts have traces of corrosion, but it does not impede operation. Battery cover IS present and intact. For info on the retrofit, check out highlyliquid's website. It receives MIDI note and bank change messages to trigger internal sounds. Combined with a decent sequencer, you can replicate speech as well as common circuit bent glitch noises consistently and predictably."

"We have a lot of cool new features already in the next version of Rhythm Studio! We have used your feedback to make the app even better and added a few of the features on our project roadmap.

New Features in R3:

Optimized Mixer that fits on one screen. The mixer has been optimized to fit on one screen which allows for better control but also gives us more workspace.
4 Audio Devices! That is right, with the smaller mixer the XYP Control Pad mkii has been moved which gives us one more slot to add a device!
User selectable devices. In SETTINGS view you can change out the devices for your song. Do you want 4 x TB3 synthesizers just because? Well you can!
Paste your song to the Intua Audio Paste clipboard to share between other apps! I exported the demo songs and sucessfully imported it into Garage Band of the iPad. http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4622
Linear Control. In SETTINGS view you can change from Rotation control to Linear control. Thanks everyone for your feedback!
Email Support. A button within the app will email us directly to give us feedback or ask for help.
Email Song Session File. Share your masterpiece with your friends! (Audio in a future update)
Song File Lock. This will prevent your song from being deleted or modified. Great for songs you want to share or just jam over.

New Devices in R3:

Improved 4 Channel Mixer with controls that fit on one screen. The Effect Units have also been combined to make it more streamlined and simple to use.
Improved XYP Control Pad. The new Control Pad mkii has a wider control surface that makes it easier to use.
DR-9 Drum Machine. Perfect Four on the Floor drum machine to make those banging beats! Also includes flam to hit those 32nd notes.
Gate Audio Insert Effect. The Gate Effect slices up the audio and takes it to another dimension.

The only thing we need to do is build our new virtual analog subtractive synthesizer called: “The Hornet”. The Hornet will be a ribbon style synth. We’ll post the specs as soon as they are set.

More Pics and Videos coming soon!"

"Donut™ lets you record loops in two dimensions.

You can use it like a phrase looper, by recording horizontally while using the step controls to step through vertical recording position. You can use it as a realtime processor by using ThruRecord mode. You can record and playback at completely differently speeds. You can even record backwards! You can record and playback diagonally across the Donut™ surface, creating glitchy staccato sounds. You can record and playback with multiple heads, recording or playing multiple positions at once. You can spread the heads vertically to access different portions of the Donut™, or you can spread them horizontally to create an echo effect.

Imagine two dimensional time! Now on the App Store."

Drum Toy for iOS

YouTube Uploaded by RobbyKilgore on Aug 14, 2011

"Drum Toy uses an admittedly weird drum machine architecture and concept. You create basic loops using Drum Toy's Every and Offset knobs, and then feather in the secret ingredient: Probability!

In a way, Drum Toy 'thinks' the way drummers do. Find the pocket, lay down the main groove and sprinkle lightly with a few tasty fills or variations here and there to keep things fresh. Drum Toy is set up to force certain beats while leaving others to just the right amount of chance. This simple mechanism yields a surprising array of personality.

Drum Toy - the world's funkiest practice metronome."

Hammond GSM Guitar Synth

via this auction

via the seller: "Rare Guitar synth! Sold as is! It turns on, lights up, but I cant get sound. It was made with a special pickup that had a 6 pin connector. I don't have the pickup so I cant test it. I was thinking one could mod the input (pictured below) and make it a 1/4" input so that it would just track whatever pitch came into it. I found this link to a 6-pin plug that looks like it would work. Theres a Screenshot of the product below."

If anyone out there knows the correct cable, feel free to comment.

Korg BPX-3 Analog Bass Synthesizer with Pedals

via this auction

via the description: "Korg BPX-3 Bass Pedal Synth. Really rare. There isn't much information on these. I remember reading that Royksopp used one on Melody AM in a magazine years back, but cant find the reference. I know they like rare Korg stuff though, since they appear on the cover of their most recent album with a Korg Synthe-bass.

The presets are much less aggressive than a Moog Taurus, and other pedals that are similar. The sounds are totally fat, smooth, pure analog bass. Very sub-bassy, deep, and full. You can control the tone with the bass and treble eq, as well as attack, sustain, and 'click'.. which is kind of like a decay setting. The controls arent that drastic, providing basic shaping to fit your bass sound in a mix, but the sounds themselves are totally bread and butter and can be used on anything."
