"For sale is this amazing Synton Syrinx keyboard, the first one ever made Serial Number 1 in purple metallic color. I don't believe any other Synton's exist in this color, they are usually black or sometimes blue. This is a very rare keyboard with an interesting range of sounds. Unique for it's filter section & modulation pads among other things. It's in near mint shape & fully functional. Only things worth mentioning are a couple scratchy pots that tend to clean up with use, and the keyboard keys themselves make a bit of noise when played (doesn't effect operation of the synth at all, but maybe with replacing membranes they could be quiet again...normal issues for a 30 year old synth.) Otherwise everything is working as it should. Operates at 115v, was originally owned by the makers of Synton until sold a few years back. Don't pass up a chance to own a collector's piece of synthesizer history!"

Note this one went up on VEMIA back in 2009 here.

via this auction

"THE SYNTHESIZER - 2nd Edition

Made by Roland c. 1982

Here we have a very nice and very clean set of instruction booklets printed by Roland around 1982. This four book set includes: Book #1 - "A Foundation for Electronic Music", Book #2 - "Practical Synthesis for Electronic Music (Vol. 1)", Book #3 - "Practical Synthesis for Electronic Music (Vol. 2)", and Book #4 - "Multichannel Recording for Electronic Music." This second edition looks to be a reprint from an earlier version done in 1978 or 1979. Again, this is a very clean set that appears to be pretty much unused."

Prophet 12 Module Synthesizer

"Don't let its small size fool you. The Prophet 12 Module boasts the same power and sound as the Prophet 12 Keyboard. Each of the Prophet's twelve voices is composed of a brand new hybrid digital/analog architecture that sounds different than any other DSI line of synths, yet retains the true Prophet vibe. With a humongous twelve voice polyphony, sophisticated architecture, and sleek design, the Prophet 12 is ready to handle any sound in any setting.

A voice as big as the rest

The Prophet 12's brand new hybrid voice has a digital front end followed by an all analog signal path output. Each voice has five high resolution digital oscillators, a digital character effects section, a resonant Curtis low-pass filter, a high-pass filter, a tune-able feedback circuit, a four-tap delay line with feedback per line, four loopable five-stage envelope generators, four syncable LFOs with slew and phase offset, a sophisticated arpeggiator, and a sixteen slot modulation matrix with 26 mod sources and 97 modulation destinations. The Prophet 12 Module is packed with a plethora of sonic potential and power!

Frequency and amplitude modulate the oscillators with incredible accuracy. Freely assign oscillators in whatever operator and modulator configurations you choose. You can even assign each of the oscillators to modulate LFOs, envelopes, and filters.

Et tu, control?

The Prophet 12 Module's streamlined interface invites quick and easy control of every parameter on the synth. Each synth section can be selected at the press of a button with every parameter editable from the crisp OLED display. Easily create modulation assignments using the Assign Mod buttons. Dedicated Low and High Pass Filter potentiometers provide quick and smooth control of the filters.

The Prophet 12 Module has a rugged steel enclosure and is equally at home on your desk, in your rack, or on stage! An extensive MIDI implementation covers every available parameter on the synth and you can easily pair it with your favorite MIDI controller or DAW.

The Prophet 12 Module

The Prophet 12 is the most cutting edge hybrid synthesizer on the market and defines what a modern polyphonic synthesizer is. Designed and manufactured in San Francisco, the Prophet 12 Module has a glorious combination of form and function in a sturdy, portable and elegant build."

"..wonderful little helper, called the Digitar. Connect it betweeen keyboard and Synthesizer and play chords like a guitarist. It's pretty easy and sounds very realistic. It's not the sounds that have to be super-realistic, it's the playing technique!"

Hohner Drum Performer "the German LinnDrum"

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"This is a very unknown and underrated drum machine from the early 80s. It's being compared to the LinnDrum a lot because it has the same powerful fatness in sound and ease of programming. It's also based on 12-bit samples and sounds amazing. Please send me your email for some audio demos. It's in nice condition, has some scratches, but works perfectly. I'm only shipping to European Union and USA."
