"Legendary, all original 1980 Sequential Circuits Prophet 5 vintage analogue poly-synthesiser! Original 240/220 Volt (can be switched to 110V) machine.

Owned from new by a named musician/producer.

Fully working and serviced for sale which included stripping, cleaning and re-bushing the entire keybed, changing capacitors, new powerlead and a new memory battery!

Also comes fully loaded with the original 120 factory patches! This synth sounds really incredible! Tunes reliably and solidly!

This is a late revision 3.3 model, which features an expanded 120 bank patch memory amongst other enhancements including importantly ones for reliability.

Physically while it is in excellent condition overall, it does have some marks, scratches and wear here and there from general use, it is 35 years old after all! One black/silver cap from a knob is missing(easily replaced)."

Ben Babbitt on the EMU modular synth

Uploaded on Apr 6, 2015 Cardboard Computer

"Ben Babbitt working on the EMU modular synth at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Ben used this synth to record the music for the XANADU sequence in Kentucky Route Zero. Our line-out recording got corrupted, so this is audio from the room -- pardon the sound quality! This should at least still give you a sense of what it looks & feels like to work on this striking instrument."

Update via the comments: "Lovely interview with Ben Babbitt on Horizontalpitch.com"

Effects4YourSynthesizer Ep2: Sinevibes Fraction

Published on Jun 25, 2015 Synth Anatomy

"Effects4YourSynthesizer is a special dedicated series of videos about special and crazy effects for making Synthesizers Sounds better and crazier. In this second episode I want to demonstrate your the new effect plugin by Sinvibes. It's an only AU Plugin for Mac and it call Fraction.

Fraction is something completely new, never seen before and it's a fusion of a beat slicer system and multi effect processor. Extremely powerful effect plugin for not a lot of money.

'Fraction is an effect plugin for deep real-time manipulation and re-engineering of sound. It features 8 slicers which record and repeat small portions of the input audio at defined points in time, slightly or radically changing the rhythmical arrangement. Each slice has three dedicated effect processors with a wide range of algorithms, and their parameters can be animated in perfect sync with the slice repeater. Rolls, stutters, fills, breaks and transitions can be done with unprecedented ease – but Fraction has enough power to create whole musical pieces out of almost anything'.

Software used:
- Presonus Studio One 3 Professional
- Rob Papen Predator Synthesizer
- Presonus Mai Tai Synthesizer
- Sinevibes Fraction Effect Plugin"

Electribe 2 Meets System-1m

Published on Jun 25, 2015 r beny

"Ambient jam between the Korg Electribe 2 and the Roland System-1m semi-modular synthesizer.

The System-1m is being sequenced by the Electribe 2 via MIDI. Near the end I patch the System-1m to trigger itself with it's own LFO. Interesting results."
