Roland MKS-80 Super Jupiter SN 501505

via this auction

"Rare Roland MKS-80 Super Jupiter Rev. 4!!!
Serial Number 501505

16 Analog Oscillators 2 per Voice!!!

The Rev. 4 to me sounds more raw and aggressive then the typical Roland sound. (Kind of like an America synth) I’ve edited sounds that sound like two sledge hammers hitting. Your monitors will rumble! It's closer related to the Jupiter-6/8 in wildness. But unlike the Jupiter 6/8 the filter and VCA in the MKS-80 both respond to velocity (Dynamics) and aftertouch! The Rev. 5 sounds more like a massive Roland JX-8P.

This Super Jupiter is in excellent working condition and comes with a power cable and a M-64C Memory Card so you can store your own sounds. For easy editing I used CTRLR. It's a free software."

In addition to 8 and 16-voice variants, Prophet Rev2 is available in both keyboard and desktop module formats, with keyboard models featuring a 61-note semi-weighted keybed with velocity and aftertouch.

New Form of Digital and Analog Sound Synthesis Based on Tropical Algebra

This one is in via Giorgio Sancristoforo, the man behind GLEETCHLAB/GLEETHCHPLUG, and BERNA 2.

"I've release our paper on Tropical Additive Synthesis, a new for of analog or digital sound synthesis based on Tropical Algebra created by me with the mathematician Cristiano Bocci."

Details from Giorgio Sancristoforo's website where you can find a PDF download of his paper on the new synthesis method.

"Tropical additive synthesis is a new form of digital and analog sound synthesis that uses Tropical Algebra.

You are free to use this paper for commercial (software and hardware) musical instruments, both in digital or analog form, at the following conditions:

1) The module must display a “trop(x[n])” logo with Times New Roman font (italic) in white, over a red background (color hex code: 84120a)
2) The user manual must credits the authors: “trop(x[n]), tropical additive synthesis ©2018 Cristiano Bocci and Giorgio Sancristoforo”

The number of oscillators can vary between 2 and 10. But this is just a suggestion.
If you need help with the oscillator’s development, please drop me a line and I’d be glad to help you."

"I thought I will share some sounds from my short experimentation with the new Make Noise Mimeophon. There was nothing added in post-production. All the effects and such are coming from the Mimeophon only.
