"Here we have Sequential's classic flagship monosynth! A dual oscillator beast with arpeggiator, the Curtis filter, sequencer, and a simple but powerful modulation matrix. The Pro One is well known for its sound and has been used by countless musicians since its release.
This particular unit is in great physical condition for its age appearing to have not been moved around or touched too much. The keybed was recently rebuilt and plays extremely well. The electronics were also serviced and are mostly working perfectly. A couple signs of its age are the power switch requiring a bit of pressure to engage and some of the switches being a little loose. The cutoff control has a very slight spot in the center that dips back down (more noticable when resonance is up: the frequency drops slightly when sweeping slowly). This issue is only present on the cutoff control and not when using envelope or LFO control."

"The Mirage is a famous sampler with a fantastic gritty sound with tons of life to it, there are analog filters, keyboard split, and some other really powerful and unique features. Samples can be saved and loaded via floppy as well as recorded in through the 1/4" input. There is also an on board sequencer.
This DSK-1 is the last version they produced. This sale includes a boot disk with stock piano sounds on it."

"This auction is for a malfunctioning Roland TR-606 drum machine. The machine has been modified by a previous owner for individual voice outputs and voice tuning controls and has been altered from its original condition.
When it was working the modified machine functioned flawlessly, all original and modified outputs and DIN sync worked, all original and modified knobs, switches, and buttons worked. The machine had worked trouble free for the last 6+ years and has only recently experienced the issues described below.
Currently the 606 will power on, all voices seem to be working and it can be coaxed into a limited sort of functionality. The sequencer will run and it will output sound but the sequencer behaves erratically and associated button presses and mode knobs do not always respond as expected. The sequencer will vary length depending on button presses. Phrases and partial patterns might be able to be produced but not without random and unpredictable behavior.
The non-sequencing knobs (tempo, volume, etc) all work. The lights all work and the machine exhibits its classic pleasing all analog sound even in a broken state (I tested with headphones). The modified tuning controls and individual outputs all seem to be functional. Conceivably whatever output can be achieved could still be captured for sampling or other creative use even if a full repair is not possible, ultimately this will be for the buyer to determine."

"In great condition- works wonderfully, and has a switchable Moog Filter choice, built in effects, patch storage, MIDI CC, and Polyphony- all the features the lovely Odyssey deserves. **this unit allows external audio to be processed by the Arp or Moog filter.
These units take 6 seconds to 'boot up' (they are not 'instant on'). There are cosmetic flaws in the wood sides (see pics)."

"Here's a quick overview of a project I've been working on: the Radiator Laser Synthesizer. If you want to know about the actual project check out: https://www.neoncaptain.com/
If you think this is interesting let me know and I'll make some more videos covering the various aspects of laser light show technology."
