Propagate Drone Test01
Published on May 1, 2014 VoltageCtrlRtv·32 videos
"This is a quick patch demonstrating the Steady State Fate Propagate module used at audio rate.
Patch:
Each channel of Propagate set to Hi.
Squarewave to Propagate in 1
LFO 1 to Propagate Space 1 cv in
LFO2 to Propagate Delay 2 cv in
LFO3 to Propagate Space 3 cv in
LFO4 to Propagate Delay 4 cv in
Propagate Sum out to ZDSP in for reverb.
I played the squarewave dry then played the Propagate sum out signal."

Note the hole the arrow is pointing to in the 5th image is where the music stand would rest in. It's just missing the little rubber cap like the hole on the other end.

Wells Floor Bass Synthesizer 1970s WORKING C7800

"This is a Wells Floor Bass Synth. Looks like late 1970s vintage. All the pedals work and track my bass guitar notes. The controls all do what they're supposed to do.
The Wells Floor Bass is not a bass effect box, it's a synth with it's own outputs which go to a bass amp and/or mixer. The bass tones are the analog type that you'd expect from a synth of this era. This instrument was designed for guitarists as an accompaniment instrument which goes on the floor under the player's guitar stool. The pedals are laid out as the strings/frets on a bass guitar would be (see pic 6). Closest row of pedals to the player correspond to the "E" string and the leftmost pedal corresponds to the open string tone. On the "E" row, the next pedal to the right is "F", then "F#", etc. The next row of pedals up corresponds to the "A" string, and the next row up is "D" and the uppermost is "G". You can play with one or both feet, but only the highest note will sound. it's a monosynth, eh.
The "Balance" pot controls the output between the two output jacks (both mono, not stereo), located on the bottom of the instrument. You'll need flat 90 degree 1/4" plugs to access the outputs with the instrument on the floor. The instrument is tuneable using the "Pitch" pot. The "Decay Rate" pot controls how long the note lasts if the "Decay" switch is set to allow Decay. The "Loud/Soft" switch does what it says it does.
The device is big and not light. It comes with a sort of homemade vinyl cover that's served to keep the unit is good condition for decades. It will ship in the cover, well padded and insured..."

FAEMI-1M *analog synthesizer * ФАЭМИ-1М (HD)
Uploaded on Sep 25, 2011 sergioavia·36 videos
via this auction
"Faemi -1M is fully polyphonic synthesizer, made at the same Kachkanar radio factory as the great Polivoks synth and has a 4-octave (F-E - Fa-Mi, hence the name FAeMI) keyboard. Same manufacturer and VCF as the famous Polyvox synthesizer but with stringmachine features! It bears the same logo on the package and retains some of its most impressive capabilities, for example, the powerful resonance filter, which, by expert estimation, outperforms the famous Minimoog! But unlike Polivoks, this synthesizer is entirely polyphonic (a so called "string/organ/brass-synthesizer"), which makes it possible to merge several timbres with the addition of a timbre passed through the filter. Faemi–1M is housed in a compact metal body with plastic sides.
1 VCO, 1 LFO, 1 VCF with ADSR envelope and 1 VCA. The control panel is divided into four main sections. The first is for the oscillator, with controls for decay, tuning and glissando. The second section is subdivided into two parts. The first subsection is called "timbre" - this is essentially the waveshape-control section - with knobs labelled piano, strings, clavinet and brass. The second subsection is called "vibrato": this controls the LFO, and has knobs for frequency, depth and delay. The third and biggest section is the "filter" section, with knobs to define the ADSR envelope as well as controlling cutoff frequency, resonance and modulation.
There is also an interesting little red button in this section which toggles between "brass" and "filter" - that is, when it is depressed, the signal from the VCO is processed through the filter, but when unpressed the signal goes straight to the VCA. The last section is the VCA control, and this has only a knob for volume. We also have a LFO, with speed and amplitude dial."

Soulsby Atmegatron 8-bit hackable monophonic synth review - SoundsAndGear.com
Published on May 1, 2014 SoundsAndGear.com·643 videos
"http://SoundsAndGear.com - checking out the brand new Atmegatron synthesizers from Soulsby. It's a crazy little desktop synth with tons of waveforms, 15 filter types, the ability to upload your own waveforms, and even change or hack the OS to turn it into a totally different synthesizer! It has a very different front panel so we go through the layout as well as the sounds and I even show you a few of the unreleased OS versions as well as the official Atcyclatron OS which turns it into a wavetable cyclling synth!
Get the synth here: http://soulsbysynths.com/atmegatron-c...
