"If you're looking for a good synthesis tutorial or two, the folks over at the MMTA are putting together a new site called The Synthesizer Academy. Each Monday a new lesson will be posted. Topics will cover everything from what a synthesizer is, to making fancy patches, to building your own system. You can subscribe to the RSS feed if you want to be notified when new lessons are posted."
The site is spearheaded and hosted by Scott Rise of Division 6. You might recognize the modular in the pic. It's George Mattson's monster custom EML modular. See the Mattson EML label below for more posts. George, of course, is the man behind Mattson Mini Modular. Other members of the MMTA include Eardrill, flight of harmony, The Harvestman, Malekko, Synthwerks, 4ms Pedals, and yours truly.

Salamander Modular Synthesizer Dual Analog Voltage Controlled Filter UAF147

See the seller's other items for more.
"Salamander Modular Synthesizer dual analogue voltage controlled filter module-UAF 147. It is in museum quality condition and functions and tunes perfectly. Everything electronically and physically is in perfect condition. It is one of 20 made in San Francisco, California in the late 70's/early 1980's.
This module includes two voltage controlled analogue filters that are generated from an exact E-MU Modular sealed VCF modules. The surrounding circuitry has been greatly expanded and the best possible parts were used in constructing the Dual VCF module by SMS. All of the knobs and switches are military grade (as in literally). This module comes from the full SMS system that can be seen in the video below. I overtook the modular when I became the sound designer and producer for Asphodel Records/Recombinant Media Labs from Naut Humon. Nothing, and I mean nothing, sounds remotely close to what this module can do.
The bandwidth is so high that I used the SMS to modulate and generate video signals for several installations. From a tuning and musicality standpoint, there is nothing that rivals the absurdly over built quality of the system.
The buyer will have to design their own power supply to run this module. Don't miss a once in a life time opportunity to add one of the rarest synthesizer modules ever made to your modular. All the connectors are standard 1/8" which will interface directly with all Eurorack modulars and similar gear."
"A bit about the studio from which this comes from ... Asphodel Records/Studios and Recombinant Media Labs was San Francisco's cutting edge and award winning production, recording, and performance/research facility. We worked both with artists internal and external to the record label. Some of the clientele has included Academy and Grammy Award nominated M.I.A., members of Nine Inch Nails, Lou Reed, Kode 9, Speedy J, Blixa Bargeld, and many many others. The facility was home to many talented professionals who were the users of the equipment we are selling."

Korg 770 - Analog synthesizer
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"The Korg 770 is a dual oscillator mono synth from 1976. It has an external input so you can use it as a Filter or Ring modulator, along with the LFO you can get some really interesting sounds. This unit has all new capacitors about 60 in all. The pots and switches are fine and all the keys work. The unit powers up and makes all kind of sounds. The wood sides are not the original plywood, the new one's are solid babinga. This wood is used in guitars and looks great. The 770 has serial # 770008 that makes this one of the first ten made."
