Ableton Live CV Tools Controlling Eurorack Modular Synthesizers
Published on Sep 5, 2019 Perfect Circuit
"Ableton Live CV Tools allows you to generate CV control signals for your analog and modular gear. You will need the CV Tools pack which can be downloaded for free and a DC coupled audio interface. We used a MOTU audio interface for this video.
In this video we used and Ableton Push 2 to control Ableton Live which was generating the drum sounds and control voltages to modulate and sequence the Intellijel Atlantis eurorack synthesizer voice. The Atlantis is run through the WMD/SSF DPLR delay which is also modulated by CV Tools.

Using Arturia's MiniBrute 2S with VCV Rack
Premiere in progress. Started 7 minutes ago Omri Cohen
"So in this video, I look at a few ways you can use the MiniBrute 2S with VCV Rack like sequencing the MiniBrute with VCV Rack, processing the audio from VCV Rack in through the MniBrute, and also, of course, sequence VCV Rack with the very deep sequencer of the MiniBrute. Actually, this sequencer has other extra tracks you can use for sequencing VCV Rack differently than the MiniBrute itself... So thank you Arturia for sending me this beautiful machine!

Custom Prototype Synth Minim00g 1975

via this auction
"What you are looking at is a 100% analog prototype synth professionally built by a tech in the 70s who went on to building aircraft for Hawker Siddeley. The prototype was finished in the summer of 1975. The synth side is complete, really unique looking too. Reminds me more of a Sonic Six but does sound very close to the Minimoog. This synth is clearly based on the later. The keys feel nice to play and are in good condition. All knobs and switches are still intact. I had a tech look at it and they found some faults but does not stop this things power! It's a huge sound! E-Mail me if you want some sound examples. The tech upgraded the PSU with new kettle lead input and caps, cost £120 alone. He advised me not to go further with repairs so to keep it's originality. All that was done extra was fixing low output. But is easy to service if you want it done.
The faults found: Osc. 2 waveshape knob not working on wide and narrow rectangle waveforms. However on Osc. 3 they work just fine. Faulty knob on Osc. 2 no doubt.
Please note this is not a fault but; the drum module was never made for it which was a board that slots inside. All the electronics inside were built for the drum module but the board itself was never completed. You could perhaps have a board custom made if you want the drum section. The last lower 5 keys were assigned for this task so do not sound.
I had the synth up for sale before but decided to get some service done to help preserve it. They don't make 'em like this anymore! Full of top quality components unlike new Chinese toys. I've been as honest as I can be with this listing. I am an established musician and not a dealer. Local pickup is also welcome. Courier will be over £20 for full insurance. Worldwide shipping available but at new owners risk. Insurance a must! You also accept in the terms of this sale that the synth does require further servicing and is sold as non-working because of OSC. 2 knob fault. Rest of the synth is working sounds like a monster! It's easily worth over 2k for something like this. To have a custom built one now would run you near 5k easy. I'm in no rush to sell so please sensible offers only (ovno)"

Random*Source Edelweiss II & La Bestia II in 8U flightcase
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"2 Random*Source panels in excellent condition inside a custom 8U flightcase (Very good condition) from Flightcase warehouse. Comes with a comprehensive set of banana cables.. I can count them if you would like haha, but they will be more than what you need.
The serge panels are connected to an L1 power supply, that lives inside of the case. This means that the setup (including cables and power supply) all lives inside the case and can be easily transported. The L1 power supply is not fastened to the case. It actually fits quite perfectly in between the case and the panels so I didn't feel the need to fasten it.
La Bestia II was built by very experienced builder (not to mention grammy award winning producer) Dom Morley last year it was serviced/repaired recently by Darrin Weiner (Patch point).
Edelweiss II was built by Darrin Weiner (Random*Sources official builder as far as I know) himself.
These are beautiful synths, they work perfectly. Really love them. I went way down the rabbit hole with modular only to find that it was more about the gear than making music. I don't really use it at all and I guess I don't have time to make music so selling all my gear!"

"Nice Analogue mono synth in like new condition. This synthesizer has semi modular capabilities. Accepts both CV/GATE as well as midi. Very sturdy build with a metal housing, metal toggle switches and full size knobs on all potentiometers. Used 20 hours more or less. Only selling to find a more light weight option for playing live. Comes with power adapter plus 3 extras for multi use in all countries (see photos)."

Korg Microkorg Chop Racked
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

Check out the pitch and mod wheels underneath.
"Alright, what you're looking at is a one of a kind Microkorg chop that manages to fit the entirety of the thing between within/in front of a standard 19" studio racking with a tiny amount of PCB shave.
Mod and pitch wheel have been mounted on the bottom because without them, the unit hardmaps these controls to the first two knobs! Fun piece of trivia, I know.
I'm not going to claim it's pretty, but it's functional.
ISSUES:
Volume knob has cracklies across the range. Nothing too crazy but it does crackle. No idea where the original knob went.
EG release knob only goes to about 100 of 128 values. Cleaning might revive it, who knows. If you're using this as a rack mount to be controlled remotely this isn't going to bother you.
Also: something is fiddly with INPUT 1 on the rear. Can't remember if it's the knob or jack, but I was stuck using that second in.
GOOD: all the buttons work, screen operates fine...midi works as it should.
AGAIN. IT'S NOT PRETTY. BUT IT WORKS."

"The Roland VP-9000 VariPhrase Processor is a revolutionary sampler/vocal processor. It is a sampler capable of elastic realtime manipulation of pitch, time, and formants via MIDI while maintaining superb sound quality. With the VP-9000 you can instantly match drum loops to the same key and tempo. Or use it to bend notes, change pitches or harmonize and more! It all works in real-time with little artifacts and in a non-destructive environment. Thankfully, the VP-9000 features three large knobs for realtime control over pitch, time, formant, and groove right on the front of the module for realtime tweaking!
