"Wonderful vintage japanese monophonic preset synthesiser from 1979. 32 sounds on offer. 37 keys, pre-sets selected using switches beneath the keyboard. It's a real pleasure to play. Some of the pre-sets are a little hard on the ears, but that is part of its appeal."

"The MKS80 Super Jupiter is a classic. One of the greatest synths of all time and the king of the MKS series. Made from 1984 through to 1987 the MKS80 is very similar to a rack version of the Jupiter 6 & 8 series of keyboard synths. Some claim it’s is a version of the Jupiter 8 and others a Jupiter 6. In reality it is somewhere between the two. The only MKS series synths with real VCO’s was produced in 2 distinct versions.

Serials number up to 511800 (OS Version 4) used standard CEM 3340 VCO chips. Most people claim that these early versions are distinctly better. Serial numbers from 511801 onwards (OS Version 5) used custom Roland chips. The Roland IR-3R03 VCO and IR-3R05 VCF. The cross-modulation and filter resonance were tamed to reduce distortion and the ADSR decay rate reduced.

Editing the MKS80 is possible from the front panel but programming is a dream with the much sought after MPG80 programmer. The MPG80 connects to the MKS80 using standard MIDI connections. A switch on the rear of the MKS80 let’s it know a programmer is connected to it’s input rather then a standard MIDI controller device. The MPG80 uses standard sysex to control the MKS80 so other hardware or software editors are a viable alternative."

"Rare 1970s Music Technology, Inc (Crumar) CPB-2 foot pedal analog bass synthesizer, made by Elettronica in Italy. This warm, thick, and great sounding analog foot bass has very useful synthesizer features that allow for a wide range of timbral possibilities, all of which have great sonic integrity - some compare this model to the Moog Taurus for sonic similarities. Features Tuner knob (has been replaced/repaired - is now a continuous pot, but still functions); VCF Envelope, Cutoff, and Resonance knobs; Release switch - allows a note to cutoff with the release or to ring out at 100% until next note is triggered; Doubling switch - a nice chorus effect; Footage switch - selects high or low octave; Waveform switch - selects sawtooth or triangle waveform; and sustain and master volume wheels in nice vintage orange. The master switch is a bit finicky as a piece of the plastic is broken off, but it still functions (if gigging, I would recommend taping it in the "on: position and unplugging the cable to power off). All else is perfect working order and all original.

A great sounding vintage Italian analog foot pedal bass synthesizer - a perfect tool for production in the studio or as an added bass instrument on the road. Power cable included. Perfect gift for the holidays!"

There's a video of a performance at the event on YouTube here, but the audio quality unfortunately is extremely distorted.

Samplr iPad app with Jordan Rudess

"Discovering Samplr for iPad, with Jordan Rudess

I was surprised when I saw this app because it uses the idea i had to actually play on the waveform like we did in my app SampleWiz. It also takes it to another dimension by adding some great features including recording!"
