" Fully Restored and 100% Functional

For sale is a vintage ARP Quadra synthesizer. These are rare synthesizers, and even more rare, are ones that work. The Quadra is loaded with sensitive logic circuits, CMOS parts, and tantalum capacitors that number in the hundreds. We have spent countless hours restoring this synthesizer to like new condition. Most boards in this synthesizers have had all chips, capacitors, and resistor arrays replaced. A custom 5 octave touch sensor was installed to give aftertouch capability over the entire range of the keyboard. We have also added mahogany sides to the case of the Quadra. It would be difficult to find a Quadra in better condition than this one.

This item weighs around 90 pounds when shipped in its case. It will ship via UPS 2nd Day Air. The dimensions of the box will be roughly 50"x30"x16". The packaging and materials, plus one hour of labor to pack the item will cost $120. This will be added to the actual cost of shipping.

"This module is comparable with a Simmons SDS-8 Drums, but this module has 8 VCO's over 8 different channels, which can be controlled by manual mode or preset mode. Onboard presets are: 1.B-Drum: 2.Snare: 3.Hi-hat: 4.Cym-1: 5.Tom-1: 6.Tom-2: 7.Cym-2: 8.Tom-3. The manual mode has a Pulse, Trigger led, Decay (which also works on the presets), Pad Sens, VCO Sweep, VCO Pitch, Noise, (can be balanced between VCO and Noise ) Noise filter and a Click. Every channel can be balanced and has an independent volume control and a direct output. Speed can also controlled from slow to very fast, manual mode as well preset mode. Also onboard are mix outputs to pan stereo with level, bass and treble control. There is a Micro Sequencer with different patterns. It is not really a sequencer but it has more a demo function. Unfortunately it is defect, but can be fixed easily. For me, it was never important because you can't sync or control it, But every channel can be controlled by an Aux Trigger signal.  If you like Kraftwerk you will like this machine (used on the Kraftwerk album Trance Europe Express) and if you un plug the unit then tune all channels together by taking off the back panel and adjusting the trim pot’s you can create real heavy monster basses and sounds! This beastie makes the weirdest noises and is way cooler than Simmons SDS-8 and has a very strong loud output signa..."

JUPITER III G - analog percussion synth


Published on Sep 27, 2012 by chamberofsounds

"Here's the newest version of our Jupiter III synth. It has a redesigned PCB, linear pots, a larger piezo pickup, and an LED power indicator - making it more dynamic, and much ballsier. It's being triggered by both the TCM & hand. Some clips are dry, and others are running through our LSD (light sensitive delay) pedal. Get your space on, only @ chamberofsounds.com"

Published on Sep 30, 2012 by AnalogAudio1

"The MXR 185 is a great American drum machine from 1983. It has individual outputs for drumsounds. The crispy 8-bit samples sound great. The built in sequencer has a "tight" groove, it grooves like hell!"
