Prophet-10 on the left.

"Does it get any better than this? An immaculate example of an Oberheim OB-8, looking like its just emerged (blinking in the Los Angeles sunshine...) from the small factory in 1983 - 37 years ago. No mods. No hatchet repairs etc. No MIDI (infortunately). With original manual. Arrived from New Jersey three months ago on our regular KKGB/US container, double-checked/serviced/calibrated by our TOP OB specialist...back with us in the E.Midlands this week. There are some wicked sounds on board, so the factory progs were not re-loaded."

Note the auction lists this as analog. It's not. It's a fully digital wavetable synth based on the engine of the Waldorf Blofeld. The interface does open it up.

[tutorial] Waldorf Quantum 10: Digital Former & Routing


Published on May 4, 2020 Synthesizer Video Service

"Important: The 'analog' filters can be set to a pure digital mode in order to get stereo lowpass filters. I got this information after recording this video but I think it's important to share it with you.

Part ten of this tutorial: We have a look on the digital former which provides multiple filter types, distortion and a bit crusher. Plus, we talk about different routing modes."

Shakmat Time Apprentice — Demo


Published on May 4, 2020 Shakmat

"The Time Apprentice is a compact dual configurable clock divider. The dividers have their own set of divisions, perfect for applications such as clocking and resetting sequencers, syncing pingable modulation sources or triggering events. A set of jumpers at the back of the module allows for personalisation of the divider’s behaviour."

Fusion VCF3, Fusion Modulator -Erica Synths small tutorial to modulation


Published on May 4, 2020 Dziam Bass

"Hey.
Today small demo and tutorial on how to use the new Fusion VCF3 and Fusion Modulator from Erica Synths,
in the movie I recorded a filter sweep at the beginning, then I added a recording of the modulation movement.
you can record modulations in the VCF3 filter, press and hold the record button, so you can record your modulation movements for the filter or anything else.
for clarity, it's best to look at the Fusion VCF3 instructions.
The modulator has two separate and independent Envelope generators with unique Looping as in EMS Synthi called trapeziod envelope.
I showed how to get alternately one long envelope and the second which falls between the first.
this is a small example but the possibilities are great .. you can check out another drone video on this channel when I use very short loop times to get unique things in drone.
I described what I do inscriptions, maybe it will help you understand these simple functions.
soon more of these modules in more complicated things .. but check it out for now.
for this I also used Fusion VCO2 which also adds sub and detune which has a built-in two bbd delay which creates wave offset in vco creating this crazy sound.
Thanks for watching."

Modular Pulse


Published on May 3, 2020 George Benton

"So I tend to use sawtooth waves all the time. This time it's all pulses. The drone is 2 oscillators tuned a fifth apart with a sweeping filter. The low pattern is 2 oscillators tuned to unison. The fast high pattern is a single oscillator running through a Moog Delay. Lead sound is three oscillators, 2 at unison and one an octave higher. All pulse waves. Some reverb added."

Africa (cover) using Zeus Analog Polyphonic Synthesizer


Published on May 3, 2020 GS Music

"The main synth sound on this song was made with a Yamaha CS-80, so I decided to recreate it with Zeus.
Zeus is an analog polyphonic synthesizer prototype that we are developing in GS Music, at Buenos Aires, Argentina.
Although this prototype has a 4-octave keyboard and 6 voices, the final version will have a 5-octave keyboard and 12 voices. Pitch bend and modulation wheels will be added too.

A few days ago, we were able to implement some multitimbral capabilities, so we assigned different timbres to the lower and upper keyboards. The lower keyboard is a Yamaha KX-88 MIDI controller.

Africa is a song written by David Paich and Jeff Porcaro.
The song is used in this video te show the capabilities of our synthesizers."

I wonder if this is still playing.
