Scammer Alert: Seth Nemec of Bananalouge, aka modularmod

"I am writing to forewarn potential synth buyers of a fraudulent ebay seller named Seth Nemec, who goes by the ebay name of 'modularmod.' Nemec sells a variety of analog synth-related equipment and modular synth components (esp. Bananalogue). In the past month, Nemec has engaged in at least three fraudulent synth-related sales on ebay: selling but never delivering a Minimoog Model D, an Oberheim SEM Pro, and an Oberheim Cyclone Midi Arpeggiator. He has also defrauded contributors to a recent Kickstarter campagin to the tune of almost $23,000. In each case, Nemec received payment and spent the funds freely on ebay, but never delivered the goods promised.

If you were a victim of one of Semec's ebay scams, please contact ebay or Paypal directly to determine if the purchase was covered by Buyer's Protection. If you were a victim of his Kickstarter scam, please contact other Kickstarter contributors at the link above about possible legal action that is being pursued by some of the affected parties.

Buyer beware!

Steven"

If anyone has any additional comments or information feel free to leave a comment or send me an email. Seth Němec has contacted me via Facebook in the past. I was going to reach out to him but his page is no longer online.

John Bowen Solaris Demos by insanic4

John Bowen Solaris Demo 1 Published on Jun 9, 2013

"Here is a demo of the Solaris synth by John Bowen (www.johnbowen.com). I have this fantastic synt for a week now and worked with it for 6 evenings. I started building my own sounds right away and in this demo you can hear a sound that uses vector and wavetable synthesis. Everything is played live using the keyboard, the joystick, the 4 part switch buttons and the pitch and modulation wheel. This synth is the king of evolving sounds!

"I thought that, since there isn't much evidence of this synth on YouTube, I'd give it a bit of what I believe young people call a 'big-up'.

The Casiotone (CT)1000p was the company's early attempt at an affordable additive synth. This was 1982, before the Yamaha brought out the DX7. I love the sound of this board. It has a fairly limited repertoire, but a unique sound nevertheless.

Sealed has written extensively, with inspiring audio samples on his excellent site: http://homepage.mac.com/synth_seal/ht... [link no longer working - looks like it was sealed's old site.]

I'd like to do justice to the CT1000P in a longer more detailed demo. I may do that some day, if no one else beats me to it.

In this particular clip the CT1000P is being lent some dignity by the delay effect of a Yamaha REX50.

Oh, and these synths go for peanuts on ebay.

Roland G-202 Guitar Synth Controller & GR-300 Synth

"Rare & fine Vintage Roland Guitar Synth set features the GR-300 Polyphonic Guitar Synthesizer floor unit, 24 pin connecting cable and G-202 Guitar Controller (with it’s original hardshell case) in excellent original condition. This outfit looks, plays, and functions fine. These older analog units are prized for their quick synth latencies, great analog and hex tones, and are famously used by artists like Pat Metheny, John McLaughlin, Adrian Belew, and Robert Fripp to get some amazing, unique sounds. The G-202 Guitar Synth Controller is a solid-body, offset double cutaway body with bolt-on solid maple neck, Gotoh tuners, dual Roland PU-120H humbucking pickups, built-in hex pickup, onboard synth controller electronics, Controls: guitar volume, tone, synthesizer VCF cutoff, guitar/synth mix, VCF resonance (feedback) and LFO depth (synth vibrato). Fully adjustable Hardtail Bridge. Guitar shows light player wear & one small paint chip; that’s about it. The GR-300 Guitar Synthesizer has six VCOs (one per string) that are controlled by the string pitches as well as hexa-fuzz plus an LFO, tuning presets and some control over the attack of each note. You can apply vibrato to open strings, secondly each string can now produce two notes (one from the divided pickup and one from a VCO). The pitch of the VCO's can be offset by two preset controls that can be selected by footswitches. Envelope attack can be slowed down and the strings that will have a synthesized tone on them can be individually selected. There is a compression on/off switch as well. Many of these functions can be selected by footswitches; the LEDs flash if the function is off or steady if the function is on. The GR-300 combined with the GK1 pickup offers clean and fast tracking and this system are still considered one of the greatest guitar synths ever manufactured. The floor unit looks good and shows light wear. It seems like the ENV INV led doesn’t light though the footswitch works fine."
