Oberheim 2 Voice Analog Synth TVS-1 with mini-sequencer

via this auction

"Oberheim Two Voice TVS-1 analog synthesizer with mini-sequencer. I've seen a two voice here once in a while, but never one with the mini-sequencer, which was an added option upon purchase. It has two SEMs (Sythesizer Expander Modules) which amounts to four oscillators, two per voice. The serial number on this unit, as pictured, is 0070. It is indeed the 70th one ever made!"

MIDIbox SEQ V4L Teaser

YouTube Uploaded by ucapps on Sep 3, 2011

"This video demonstrates the brand new MIDIbox SEQ V4L, a variant of MBSEQV4 with minimalistic user interface. Buttons and LEDs are directly connected to the MBHP_CORE_LPC17 module (which is under the small table). An external keyboard is required to enter Notes, Pitchbender and CCs.

MBSEQV4L controls a virtual Mk II with Seq1, and a Wurlitzer with Seq2. Both sequences have been recorded live and at once, only the Stylus RMX based drums have been added later in Logic Pro to make this video a little bit less boring. ;-)

What happens:
[0:05] configuring Seq1 for 32 steps (2 bars)
[0:14] a basic pattern is entered in Live Recording mode to define the basic rhythm
[0:19] now this sequence is automatically looped
[0:25] switching to Step Recording mode
[0:27] and entering additional notes for selected steps
[0:32] activating force-to-scale: Pentatonic Minor (previously forgotten)
[1:05] yes, we can also enter chords! :)
[1:55] activating the Humanizer with extreme settings (random keys/velocity/length - always in scale!)
[2:04] activating Groove with Shuffle feel and modified Delays/Velocities/Lengths
[2:11] now it gets more funky! :)
[2:12] trying some magic LFO presets - affecting note and velocity
[2:36] trying different Step Progressing presets - affecting step increment/decrement/repeat
[2:35] some different LFO presets again
[3:08] break
[3:17] entering a second sequence, played by a virtual Wurlitzer
[3:26] notes are entered in Step Recording mode
[3:57] trying different MIDI Echo effects on Seq1 with Note increment (but forced to scale)
[4:28] introducing our special guest! ;-)
[4:32] my beloved app "Pianist Pro" is running on the iPad, it sends OSC messages to MBSEQV4 which are converted to MIDI and thereafter sent to Logic Audio via USB
[5:21] additional notes are entered, making the sequences more complex
[5:33] muting Seq1, the Wurlitzer plays alone
[5:58] all MIDI effects are activated - MBSEQV4L jams a bit out of human control meanwhile, but it still sounds nice ;)
[6:40] unmuting and modifying the MIDI effects of Seq1
[7:04] slowly some steps are disabled to thin out the sequences"
