ROLAND SH-7 SYNTHESIZER

via this auction

"Roland synth from the 1970's. It has been gone through and given a good cleaning. No modifications have been made. The synth is original and plays beautifully. The tech who did the work said it was an outstanding clean example of the 1970's SH-7... FIVE OF THE SLIDERS HAVE NON ORIGINAL CAPS. SMALL DENT IN THE STEEL IN THE BACK. SMALL PIECE OF COVERING THE SIZE OF A QUARTER MISSING FROM SIDE."

Korg FK1 vintage VCF analogue filter pedal

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

via this auction

"This unique pedal is one of an early range comprising this, the FK1, the FK2 Mr. Multi and the FK3 expression pedal. It would also be of the same era as the infamous Keio (Korg) Synthesizer Traveler.

The unit is in excellent condition and functions perfectly. It is missing one of the red caps from the 'traveler' slider heads, and there is the odd knock in the paint - apart from that, as you can see in the photos - it's in very tidy condition indeed."

Massive Aphex Twin Interview Part Two on noyzelab & 21 Free Modular Tracks

Follow-up to this post. The second part of the massive interview with Aphex Twin is up on noyzelab here. Tons of gear talk, pics and demos, and MATRIXSYNTH gets a mention! :)

On a related note, Aphex Twin just released 21 modular tracks on SouncCloud (embed below). Buchla & the ARP 2500 are featured.

Pictured: The JH Matrix FX, from the late Jürgen Haible.

From the interview: "he died the day he posted it to me which was very sad, a huge loss to the community ,he was the analogue fx don of dons, a genius."



Begins with a bit of Buchla. Track 21 features the ARP 2500.

" Rhodes Chroma in excellent condition! The Chroma includes the Enabler contoller(and power cord/midi connector) , brand new flight case for Chroma, original pedals. the Enabler wood is cherry with a finish to match the Chroma cherry wood and finish. Reworked by New England Analog(NEA) who performed the following service.If you go to NEA's website and gallery,you can see photos of this exact Chroma.
removed all wood surfaces, stripped and resanded the cherry wood and finished in cherry finish with three coats of PU
all electrolytic capacitors replaced.
replaced PSU with Luca Sasdelli's switching power supply kit which was the Chroma's weakest point. Chroma now generates no heat upon touch and is incredibly stable.
Added Chris Borman's, After touch Pressure Sensor Kit. Chroma now has aftertouch which can easily be adjusted with the Enabler.
Added the CPU Plus CC+ software PCB which adds further operating stability and better midi control.This feature increases the standard 50 patches to 200 patches and allows the Chroma to be controlled by Randall Osborne's Enabler which is now marketed by NEA.
For those unfamiliar with the Chroma, you can find basic info on Vintage Synth Explorer or Soundonsound, but the primary source of information in on the Rhodes Chroma website which contains significant information about the Chroma and all the upgrades performed on this unit.Here are the basics:

Polyphony-16 voices with 1 OSC per voice or 8 voice with 2 Osc per voice
