"Offered for sale is the Kawai SX-240, a classic very rare and unique sounding dual DCO multi-waveform Analog Synthesizer (made in 1984) with SAW, SQUARE, PULSE (2nd LFO), BRASS (Ring Modulation) waveforms, 8-voices of polyphony, an additional SUB Oscillator, Poly8/4/mono modes, a super-warm, lush, on-board chorus/ensemble effect, 8-SSM 2044 filters (used on PPG-Wave 2.2, Korg Mono/Poly, Korg Trident, Korg Polysix, Kawai SX-210, Kawai K3 etc), a LFO that can be routed everywhere in the DCO, VCF and the VCA, MIDI In/Out/Through, Portamento, Glissando, a 8-digits LED screen for editing the parameters and the option of being placed in Split or Dual patch modes. In Split mode you can assign two patches to be played in a split on the keyboard. In Dual mode two patches can be played at the same time for a rich, warm and layered sound, not very common in Analog Synthesizers. It has also a built-in, real time 1,500 note sequencer and chord memory. This is a very useful synth!

Kawai SX-240 has a great rich, lush and unique analog sound to it that can't be reproduced by today's modern synthesizers. Cuts through the mix in a unique way, and due to its rarity will not end up sounding like other analogs of the era. Sonically it is somewhere between Korg Polysix and Roland Juno-60."

This appears to be the first post showing what the PAiA 4786 looks like on the site. A search on 4786 only brings up one previous post from January of 2009. That post only featured a couple of pics of the circuit boards and instructions. See it for more details on the module.  If you do a search for 4740 you will see a ton of PAiA modules in systems, but not this one.

Groovesizer MB Multiboard Synthesizer

"The Groovesizer MB (for multiboard) is a DIY 8-bit audio platform. It’s a musical chameleon that can take on a number of different roles from sequencer to synth, drum machine, or midi controller. Exactly what the Groovesizer MB is at a given moment depends on the firmware it’s running. Existing firmware can be freely hacked, or new firmware developed using the beginner friendly Arduino IDE. Firmware is loaded to the board directly from the Arduino IDE, either via an AVR ISP programmer, or by flashing the Atmega chip on an Arduino board and swapping it out."

"World News Tonite" - an OP-1 Composition


Published on Jul 11, 2016 Bill Vincent

"I wanted to create something that expresses my anger, frustration and general reaction to media right now. Everything - social media, television, radio, papers, magazines, all of it. We are a world going insane, and not only that, we are watching ourselves do it, ever fixed to the next big tragedy. It turns out the OP-1 can get some of that out. So I took it and this is what happened. After tweaking for a while I decided to roll video, and I'm glad I did. I think this piece might speak to a lot of people right now."
