Hungry Robot Modular Pedals
Published on Jul 24, 2018 Perfect Circuit Audio
"Hungry Robot's new modular pedals run on standard guitar 9v power supplies, but internally run on the same +/-12v that eurorack modules run on. They can be patched together with 3.5mm cables to make full synthesizer voices, or can be used to control pedals with CV inputs. They run on the same voltage and signal levels as most semi-modular and eurorack synthesizers so they can be patched together with them as well.

"The Trident is a polyphonic and programmable instrument with three independent sections - Synthesizer, Brass, and Strings, released in 1980. It features 8 voices of polyphony and two of the instrument sections can be played simultaneously while in Split Keyboard mode.
Each section has its own unique VCO voice architecture, VCF (filter) types, and LFO capabilities. The Brass section's VCF and Envelope Generators are virtually the same as the Synthesizer section, allowing the Brass section to be used for generating additional synthy sounds as well as faux-brass sounds. The String section has some unique features as well such as a "Bowing" effect. Another unique effect included is a global flanger that can self-oscillate! Flanger controls include Speed, Feedback, Intensity and Manual.
The Trident featured 16 user memory patches. In addition there were three preset memory patches for Piano 1, Piano 2 and Clavi. There is no way of externally playing the Trident with MIDI or CV/Gate without modifications (CV/Gate only controls expression and filter parameters). But the CV/Gate inputs are discrete for each of the three sections. There are also discrete mono outputs for each section and a mix output.
This synth is near 40 years old and so has its quirks - it due a service so this would suit someone who is able to fully clean and spend some time on this unit.... please bear this in mind"

Oberheim OB-X Vintage Analog Polyphonic Synthesizer SEM 8 Voice
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"Here is classic vintage polyphonic synthesizer from the best years of poly synths. The OB-X has arguably the biggest and most powerful sound thanks to it's largely discrete, pre-Curtis Electromusic era, voice architecture lifted straight out of the SEM-based systems that preceded it. The filters are supreme and, that bit of looseness in the tuning provides loads of thick and raw character, being edgy with a bottom end that is just apocalyptic in size.
The unit has just been serviced:
-All of the connector/header contacts were de-oxidized throughout the entire unit.
-All solder points of the interconnect headers were re-flowed on both voice motherboards, the power supply and both the lower and upper processor boards.
-The upper tray ribbon connectors that connect to the processor board have been replaced.
-The +19 volt and -19 volt adjustment trimmers on the power supply have been replaced with multi-turn, high-precision trimmers.
-The entire unit has had a full calibration according to the original service manual.
-Loaded with original factory patches."
