Of course he does! This is real and not photoshopped BTW, I grabbed the screens off of Twitter. :)

Resynator Documentary Coming to Kickstarter

Published on Nov 14, 2018 Alison Tavel

There have only been two previous posts featuring the Musico Resynator below here. Alison Tavel wrote in to let me know she is working on a documentary on the Resynator which was actually created by her father, Don Tavel. The trailer for the film is above. You might recognize a few people. :) The Kickstarter campaign for the film launches in six days. It's looking to be a great documentary.

Radikal Technologies Delta CEP Set to Ship Next Week

DeltaRND Seq Published on Feb 13, 2019 Jörg Schaaf

"The Delta CEP A's LFO can trigger the ADSR envelope.That works even, when the LFO is set to. Each Random Voltage step will simultaneously create a gate signal. Just hold SHIFT and turn the ADSR section decay knob for a LFO-ADSR Assignment. The shift & decay combination will control the gate time of the LFO ADSR sync signal..

The RND signal is fed into the 1V/OCT input of the Delta's swarm oscillator and the swarm oscillators pitch quantizer is set to a major pentatonic scale.

The sequence starts with a single pitch because the LFO depth is set to 0.

I am using the EFFEXX effect module for modulated delay effects, phasing, reverb and filtering simultaneously in a serial configuration. I used the TAP function of the EFFEXX module to synchronize the delay effects. You can watch me adjusting the delay time after cranking up the LFO speed...

And last, but not least. I have good news. The first Delta CEP As will ship next week. So, the waiting time is over finally. I am very satisfied with our development efforts. Thank you guys for the patience. I hope, you will enjoy the result of our creation."

Steiner-Parker Synthacon Minus Keys

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"Extremely rare "Keyboardless" module edition of the Steiner Synthacon. It has numerous entry points for external control (+TR and VC 2 would be your standard gate/cv jacks but there is also voltage control over the VCA and VCF, VC 1 for S&H, etc). The synth has been recapped, power supply regulators have been replaced and the switches have been cleaned to get this synth into fine, functioning state. All three VCOs have an insane range (about 17 octaves) so they can go from super-slow LFO territory all the way beyond the range of human hearing. This very well could be the only Synthacon in this form in existence; an undeniable jewel and overall ridiculously rich-sounding synthesizer."

Malekko Manther

via this auction

"The Manther is a super nice desktop analog synth and sequencer with lots of features and a great heavy sound. It is inspired by the Roland SH-101 but expands it quite a bit. There is a built in delay, 1/8" patch points, added triangle wave in the oscillator, and added rising or falling saw to the LFO section.

The Manther has a great compact but comfortable form factor and is well built. This unit is in great condition and includes the original box and power supply."

Analogue Solutions Red Square

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this auction

"The Red Square is a semi modular monophonic analog rack mount synth with 1/4" patch points. There are two heavy sounding oscillators, LPF, two envelopes, LFO, sample & hold, and some other built in utilities. There is normalling but the synth really encourages patching with things like the second oscillator and envelope being disconnected by default.

This synth is in good working condition with some light cosmetic damage like worn paint on the edges and a few stickers on the sides. Some of the pots are a little scratchy as well but function as intended and just need to be worked a bit."

Panoptigon plays Orchestron Piano Disc

Published on Feb 13, 2019 optigandotcom

"Another Panoptigon demo, for a rainy day in SoCal- this time an improvisation on our Orchestron Piano disc. This disc can't really be played like a typical piano sound you might find on most keyboards, due to the unique constant-looping playback characteristics of the Orchestron. We placed each individual note at a position on a 16th-note grid, which produces a sort of windchime effect when you hold down chords. This disc isn't very well suited to playing melodies, but you can always try! This demo features the onboard hall reverb, with no additional processing. Also heard are the reverse, vibrato, and pitch bend effects. You can find info about pre-ordering a Panoptigon (which comes with our remastered edition of this Vocal Choir disc) here: http://optigan.com/2019/01/panoptigon..."

Thomas Lehn's EMS SYNTHI Stolen

This one was sent in via an anonymous reader. Click the image for details. It just went up and is recent. Spread the word. If you don't want to link here, just grab the image and post it.

Further below is a video featuring Thomas Lehn and his SYNTHI.

Update: larger pics attached. The serial number is 45629.

Update2: more pics below and a list of some unique features on this SYNTHI via Thomas Lehn's website.

1) The two 'kb' disconnect switches above the filter level knob. EMS has never done this on another Synthi.
2) Headphone level dial is to the RIGHT of the speaker mute switch. Nowadays if we add functions here the dial is to the left.
3) The THREE switches in the envelope shaper section. Normally just one, two is rare. There is only one other synth where we built three switches.
4) Just one 3.5 mm jack socket next to matrix and one switch in Reverb section. A unique combination.
5) Label on the top four horizontal rows of the matrix is partly made with pen - not by printing.
