Kurzweil K2500 AES (Audio Elite System) Studio Production Synthesizer SN 459810ZS0015

"The only and unique mega synthesizer of the 1990s priced at $20,000, which back then was the equivalent of $30,000 today. Technically it is filled with all possible K2500XS extensions encased within a metallic champagne housing and sides of noble wood.

There were only a few K2500 AES units released and some of them were used by Pink Floyd. Today the might appear on sale priced at $6000-8000 and are distributed among collectors. Of course, today it is rather a work of art, but there’s no doubt that K2000 - K2500 - K2600 series still cope with music production quite well. In fact, these are one of those immortal synthesizers which once served as trendsetters, and in skilled hands they can make their magic even today."

Condition

"Fair to good condition . needs audio output repair., 1 Chanel is bad on the main outs and headphone outs. Will need minor repair. Unit also has 4 multi output stereo or mono pairs that work just fine."

Vermona DRM-1 MK III Analog Drum Machine SN D 17162

via this auction

"This is the version without trigger inputs (MIDI only). It comes with the original box, manual, and optional wooden end-cheeks, plus an aftermarket 110V <> 220V power supply (more on this below). (If you prefer, you can remove the cheeks and mount it in a 19" rack.)

I describe the DRM-1 as more of a percussion synth than a drum machine. It has the usual sounds, such as kick, snare, clap, and hihats (and these sound great). But it also has several other voices which are unclassifiable. Think of them as synth voices which are designed for sculpting percussive sounds. They generally offer some combination of oscillators, frequency modulation, white noise, resonant filters, envelopes, and mixers. All of the voices have a ton of parameters (plus per-voice volume and pan), so it offers a broader range of sonic possibilities than the average analog drum machine.

All of this makes the DRM-1 a great choice for drums if you're into more experimental styles – dub, experimental techno, ambient, leftfield electronic stuff, etc. But the kick/snare/etc. make it quite capable for banging techno, too."

"This synth sounds amazing. The presets are ok, but once you start diving in its a beast of a synth. LOTS of capability. Three OSCs and a wicked filter! PLUS a cool retro sequencer that has a great feel to it."

The SQ-80 has polyphonic aftertouch compared to the ESQ-1.

"★I love the combination of the Bigsky and Pitchfactor. They are both like instruments unto themselves, and the Electribe 2 being so versatile, makes for a very powerful setup. I feel like I'm just beginning to scratch the surface.★

Having made a 100 Patches, I've put together Layers and Splits of many of the Patches, but have also done some completely new ones, like 3 or 4 Oscillator Leads and Pads. All i'm going to say is it's a cracking Synth. It can be Lush, Juicy, Warm and in your Face. Great Synth."
