New Circuit Abbey Vacvac: Vactrol based dual VCA for Eurorack
Vacvac Intro Published on Mar 30, 2015
"Introducing the Circuit Abbey Vacvac: Vactrol based dual VCA for Eurorack, in 4HP."
via Circuit Abbey where you'll find some audio demos.
"The Vacvac is a dual Vactrol based VCA for Eurorack..
The Vacvac uses 2 vactrols per channel to get 80+ dB of attenuation. The Vactrols
are trimmed to ensure channel and gain matching, so no channel to channel
variation or unit to unit differences. The CV drive circuit is jumper selectable 5 or
10 volts, and the modules unity gain at the max voltage. Also our drive is biased
so EGs that have an offset will not open the VCA when they are supposed to be
closed.
This is a very musical VCA. It sounds great, and makes really nice drum sounds.
Also its soft on/off characteristics means it make a great mute. Use it to switch
between 2 different sounds.
This 4HP module has a maximum 60mA current draw. Module depth is 49mm."

Octave Voyetra-8 Synthesizer Rev. 4 w/ VPK-5 Controller Keyboard (NOS)
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
Located in Cincinnati, this one is listed on MATRIXSYNTH CLASSIFIEDS as well. Pick your poison.
Details and new pics from the eBay listing:
" I am selling a Voyetra-8, one of, if not the best polyphonic analog synthesizer out there. The V8 combines two CEM3340 oscillators (each with a sub-oscillator) and a SSM 2044 filter per voice with a huge amount of modulation abilities. The end result is a wonderful sounding synth that can easily go from subtle to HUGE. This particular unit is a green card rev. 4 machine, which is the final and most stable version of the Voyetra. It can accept MIDI sysex and can be controlled by external software and programmers. It was also just gone over by Peter Lanziolata, a former Octave-Voyetra tech, and THE best V8 tech on the planet. He went over this machine meticulously updating parts (including replacing the power supply) and resoldering connections where needed. The synth now plays and works exactly as it should.
Included in the auction is a new old stock VPK-5 controller keyboard. This was purchased recently from Carmine Bonanno, the former head of Octave and is totally unused. You can either use this controller or midi to control the Voyetra (but not at the same time).
Also included are the necessary XLR > MIDI cables, the original manual, and other documentation. You are literally getting the "complete" package for the Voyetra.
Because this is a vintage piece of electronic equipment (and a sensitive one at that), there are some thing to mention.
The machine is currently fully calibrated, but trimmers inside the unit (for the voice card volumes and filters) may shift during shipping. If this happens, it's straight forward to re-calibrate them as long as you are able to turn a knob and use a tuner.
Voyetras were always somewhat temperamental in terms of autotuning. The machine autotunes exactly as it should; however, like any vintage analog synth it needs time to warm up and will sometimes require a few autotunes for all voice cards to pass. This is normal, and just requires hitting the autotune button a few more times. As it is, it is stable enough that it usually turns on with almost all voices already in tune.
All Voyetras are very sensitive to ground loops and this can create unwanted noise in the audio signal. This can usually be solved by switching to a filtered power supply, or simply a different wall socket (as in my case).
Finally, because of the vintage nature of this machine, it is absolutely, 100% sold as-is. I guarantee only that the machine will turn on and there will be no returns UNLESS the machine does not turn on at all. Saying that, I do no expect there to be any issues upon arrival beyond possibly needing to recalibrate the voice volumes and filters (if even that). Please ask any questions bidding."

MFB Tanzbar Analog Drum Machine / Synth
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"This is a fantastic drum machine, the best sounding one I've ever had. It's generally out of stock in the US. This one was obtained from Schneiders Laden in Germany. It shows no signs of wear/scratches and it's been used only in my smoke-free studio. I'm selling everything and this is the last one to go since I love it so much. It retails at $1,200. It came with a German power supply but I will include the US adapter.
Info:
mfb's tanzbãr drum-computer offers fourteen analogue percussion instruments as well as a synthesizer for bass- and melodic voices. its integrated step-sequencer allows flashlight-programming and storage of up to 144 patterns. all parameters can be recorded per step! because of its ability to control and call up all functions on the fly, while the unit is running, tanzbãr is ideally suited for live performances.
using the fill-function, patterns can be chained for longer sequences. in addition, every pattern offers a/b variations that can be switched manually or automatically for further flexibility. also, tanzbãr allows saving 16 flame and roll-variations.
the step-length is controllable per instrument, allowing easy creation of polyrhythmic structures. possible resolutions are 32th and 16th steps as well as 16th- and 8th triplet-steps. the shuffle amount can be continuously controlled globally and per instrument.
each instrument offers three accent intensities. add the bend-function to create glides and lfo-like sweeps for bass drum 1/2, snare drum and toms 2/3.
in addition to the percussion-instruments, tanzbãr offers addressing external instruments using its two cv/gate outputs; one being able to control dynamics via a third cv-output. the same tracks are routed to the internal bass- and melody-synthesizer voices. an ideal solution to pre-listen and program patterns without any need for external equipment.
the cv/gate-sequencer offers a range of three octaves and is programmable using two methods. all parameters are output via midi, allowing control of external instruments. the drum-computer can be synchronized via midi- and clock-signals.
finally, tanzbãr not only offers a master volume knob but individual level controls and mute-functions per instrument. the unit provides a stereo output as well as twelve individual outputs.
