Countryman Associates TYPE 968A Phase Shifter

This is the first post to properly feature Countryman Associates (they were previously mentioned in the BBC video linked below). Check out the EMS SYNTHI in the background. I can't quite place what's on the upper left. Thought it might be the EMS SYNTHI Logik, but it's not. If anyone knows, feel free to leave a comment.

"Countryman released the first commercial phase shifting devices beginning with the Type 967 Phase Shifter around 1967; The 968A is the last model in this series, released around '71. Like the 967 and 968, the 968A uses an internal Envelope Follower rather than a cyclic LFO for phase modulation. There is also a CV input on the front panel, along with the audio input and output.

Besides being one of the very first of its kind, and having a very unique sound, the 968A is designed in a way that makes it particularly suited to experimental audio processes and special audio effects (as opposed to and different from your average stomp box phaser). There's not a lot of information online about this rare device, but what is available is mostly concerning it's experimental applications.

The 968A was used in a number of early electronic music studios including the BBC Radiophonic Workshop. It's featured in this BBC TV 70's documentary film." [posted here]

Korg Sigma 1979 Synthesizer

"One of the rarest in design, fastest in sound changes (no memory) great and interesting sounding synths. One of Jean Michel Jarre's favorites. Everything works. You can use a modern Korg SQ1 to control it via midi (the SQ1 works as a usb to cv converter for Korg-style cv). I used it this way. Fat basses, crazy ring modulator sounds. This synth has minor scratches and chips in the wood that I usually covered with a paint pen. After a thorough cleaning this will come away and it is your choice to cover the minor scratches again. The joysticks are the original but the top plastic part which was added. I bought it with both tops of the joysticks broken and had two plastic sticks which fit perfectly put in its place. The wood in the bottom has wear and chips. When I bought it it had one rubber foot missing and replaced all with these transparent feet. I will include the three original rubber feet in case you want to search for a fourth original."

Comparison starts at 5:49. Look at the level meters on the right to see which is playing.

"Here's the result of the hardware versus software synthesizer showdown! in this video I'll share the track created using just free software VST plugins and Reaper DAW.

To recap, Espen Kraft composed and created a track on his vintage hardware synthesizers and drum machines .The challenge was for me to re-create it using just software."

ft. Joe Savage - Bad Luck (Elektron Digitone + SM Pro Audio V-Machine)

Published on Apr 14, 2018 Rephazer

"Little Jam using the Elektron Digitone and SM Pro Audio V-machine featuring Joe Savage and his copyrighted song Bad Luck. :)

In this jam I've used the 4 midi channels of the Digitone to sequence the V-Machine which I've loaded with some melodic and drum samples of my OP-1 sample collection and the V-Machine is also used for processing all the audio with all kinds of lo-fi wobble/wow and flutter effects.
