Did you hear it? If not, listen to the brass parts closely. Note this song was released in 1973, on Houses of the Holy. I was just listening to the album minutes ago, in the background tonight with my wife. She asked me what the synth was. I asked her what synth? She said the brassy parts. I told her I didn't think it was a synth considering the year, and that it must just be muted or processed trumpets. She said it was not trumpets and had to be a synth, or some organ or something. Well, it turns out she was not only right, but it's something I never would have guessed in a million years. I still can't believe it to be honest with you - it's like it's from the bizarro, alternate world of synths. If you don't know, listen closely and see if you can guess it for yourself one more time. Hint: It's not Moog. What is it? You'll find the answer below, and if you were somehow able to identify it based on the character of the synth, you are the Kwisatz Haderach of synth gurus.

Arturia MiniBrute Female Choir Patch (Vox Humana)

Published on Dec 30, 2016 stuthomson

"My female choir patch on the MiniBrute. Added some chorus and reverb. Using a fast chorus speed. In this case I am using an Electro-Harmonix Electric Mistress chorus pedal through an Alesis MicroVerb. Also note the sub-oscillator waveform is set to square wave. Don't forget a light touch of vibrato!"

What's wrong with this first pic?

"Roland Vocoder 330 mk 1. A rare classic in excellent condition. Been professionally checked and tested throughout and given the thumbs up. Pink Floyd's choice of synth along with many other great artists. I have not seen another in this good a condition and doubt that i will. A chance to own a piece of music history."

"Special note: the OB8 was serviced in December 2016 by Mike Jay at ProAudio Electronics in Tampa Florida.

The work he performed on this keyboard (admittedly there wasn't much) will be warranted for one year from date of service. Warranty is transferable to the new owner, but does not cover shipping and handling costs to the service center in Tampa."

"Hi there i'm selling this on behalf of my parents who are selling up their studio. They've owned the synth for the last 35 years. It's in full working order and the keyboard itself is in good condition has the odd mark and the case has a few scratches on it. We will consider sensible offers but this is a piece of musical history."

Dalek Arduino Synthesizer 2016

Published on Dec 30, 2016 Martin Orman
Update: Re-Published on Jan 5, 2017

"I picked up this Dalek from a car boot sale so it's a bit battered. I installed a synthesizer written onto an ATMEGA 328P chip (Arduino Uno clone that I built) inside. It runs on battery or 9v DC mains adapter in. There are two mono outputs i.e. 3.5mm and 1/4". It's possible to run both outputs together in order to set up two audio channels in your DAW that will create a stereo output. This is recorded into Ableton 9 through a Focusrite Scarlett 18i8 with standard reverb, compression and Reaktor Molekular 'Plagiarism' added to give some additional harmonics."

Note: if you are interested in one or the instructions you can ping Martin Orman over on YouTube for details.

New description from Jan 5, 2017 upload:

"I converted this Dalek into a granular synthesizer. Inside is an ATMEGA 328P clone of an Arduino Uno that I built. It has two line level outputs and runs on 5v to 9v D.C. from battery or mains adapater."
