"Near Mint condition (only imperfections are very minor nicks on wooded panels, please see pictures) and perfect working order with original power supply and manual. Loved and cared for for many years in a smoke free studio.
The Future Retro 777 is a monophonic analog synthesizer with a digital sequencer. The 777 is a sleek retro design that has realized the full potential of the monophonic pattern based synth. It's not just another TB-303 emulator. It uses analog circuitry and has a lot of hands-on knobs for instant sound tweaking. And while the 777 has extensive editing and modulation abilities, the layout is as basic and intuitive as an old SH-101 or MC-202!"

If you own an FS1R and iPad see my editor here.
"It is almost impossible to describe the sound, flexibility and power of this machine without playing and hearing it. The FS1R is capable of any sound you can imagine.
The FS1R would be not for everyone, but a gem for the one who is seeking something special.
There are some small marks on the rack ears from mounting and on the top plate. This is a 240 Volt version.
In 1998, after several years without producing a single FM synthesizer, Yamaha released a new FM powerhouse...the FS1R. This little beast is far from your average FM synthesizer. Not only is it an eight-Operator variant, as opposed to the six- and four-Operator FM of the DX/TX lines, but it also features a new technology called Formant Shaping Synthesis. Formants are the spectral patterns making up the sounds of human speech. This allows for the creation of vocal like timbres but can also be applied in many different ways to create incredibly unique sounds that you won't find on any other synths.
DX7 aficionados will like the fact that the FS1R has almost complete compatibility with 6-Operator FM synths: you can send, via MIDI, a patch from a DX7, for example, and the FS1R will convert it to an identical-sounding patch in the new synth. A lot of the preset Voices actually come from the DX7's library. It's also possible to program sounds from DX7 sound charts, finding an algorithm that has an equivalent layout to the DX algorithm and turning off the unwanted Operators.
The complexity of working with the synth is far outweighed by the amazing sounds that it's capable of. It truly sounds like nothing else out there. From huge evolving pads, to shimmering EPs, fantastic organs, screaming leads and booming basses.. this synth can sound industrial and cold one minute, and then warm and almost analogue the next. With some time dedicated to learning how to edit the patches, or create your own from scratch, there's really no sound that this synth isn't capable of making."

Ableton ARP Odyssey MegaPack

The ARP Odyssey is a classic, and currently on a relevant run again, thanks to Korg’s fantastic reissue and iOS app. I purchased mine quickly after it hit shelves, as well as the iOS app, which was more recently released. I certainly don’t regret it. It has one of the more odd interfaces for a synth I’ve seen; its setup is definitely unique. Once I navigated around for a few hours I was able to make some wild tones with it, and have used it on countless songs by this point. You might be thinking, why would I decide to make an Ableton pack when there is an iOS app based on the synth as well? This is my take on the instrument. The body on the iOS app isn’t where I would like it to be. You will be able to achieve some very full, as well as disntinct sounds from my pack. I used Ableton’s sampler in some different ways, that will give you an Odyssey sound all its own. I Hope you enjoy the instruments, and if you create anything with the sounds please send your songs to us so we can hear your work! It brings us joy to know that people are using the instruments we worked hard on to be creative."

"Behringer Deepmind 12 demo, part 2! This is an analog polyphonic synthesizer. I just cycle through presets and improvise whatever comes to mind. There's some pads, some basses, and some weirder effects this time around."
