KeyStep Pro Workflow Firmware Update 1.3
What’s new in KeyStep Pro v1.3?
A set of workflow improvements designed to streamline your creative flow. Let’s take a closer look…
MIDI channels per project
You can now determine specific tracks’ output MIDI channels per project, for easy navigation of multiple MIDI devices in performances and sessions.
MIDI input enhancements
MIDI In information has also been expanded so that pitch wheel, mod wheel and sustain messages are transmitted to their respective tracks/channels.
Expanded Mod CV functions
The individual Mod CV outputs can now send data using either the velocity, aftertouch, or modwheel output values.
Transpose refinements
Transpose now also applies to arpeggios currently playing, and Transpose Compensation keeps newly-recorded notes in key with the sequence when transpose is cleared.
Tie / Rest behaviour
The Tie / Rest button’s functionality has been improved to allow extending steps in a more intuitive and familiar way.
Workflow upgrades
We’ve expanded a number of workflow functions, including improved Quick Editing, instantly switching drum mutes off, streamlined page erasing, intuitive note overlapping, and more.
Streamlined utility functions
We’ve updated a number of essential utility functions, including Factory Reset, MIDI channel shortcuts, refined screen & LED visual feedback, and much more.
Various bug fixes
Based on user feedback and extensive testing, we’ve improved a number of functions to make KeyStep Pro more reliable and efficient.

PAiA Understanding Cassette Demo Part 1 Book

"PAiA Electronics would produce demonstrations of their synthesizer modules. Their in-house studio consisted of a TEAC 3340S reel-to-reel plus a few other pieces of outboard equipment.
This demo, as I recall, was to show off their new 47xx line of VCOs and VCFs.
There are numerous patches and explanations of the patches and the recording techniques. Of course these patches can be applied to any modular synthesizer.
Please note that this is for the booklet only. I have no idea what happened to the tape.
Enjoy a fun piece of history!"

Macbeth Studio Systems M3X SN 0071

via this auction
"Rare, hand-built 3 VCO synth. Superb build quality, simple to use and with a huge sound. Midi or analogue control.
This unit needs some work before it ships (replacement of the transformer). Lead time will depend on the queue of work we have, but is likely to be around 20 working days.
Macbeth M3X monosynth for sale. One of around 100 units made by Scottish synth expert Ken Macbeth back in the early 2000s. Will be supplied serviced, in full working order and with warranty.
Clearly inspired by the Minimoog (although it is in part based on the Prodigy) these have a well-deserved reputation for a big, ballsy, “vintage” analogue sound. The 24dB/oct transistor ladder filter is a big part of this.
This one has been fitted in a case for desktop use. It could be rack mounted (but the limitation is that all the sockets are on the rear of the unit).
The original transformer had burnt out so we will fit a new one which will be set either up for 120 or 240v use.
CONDITION: In excellent overall condition with only minor wear to the face. The wooden case is clean with some scuffs and dings around the edges. Please see photos or get in touch if you require more information on condition.
Will be set up for either 120 or 240v operation before shipping."

Studio Electronics Omega 8

"This is the Studio Electronics Omega 8, an 8-voice analog dream machine. It comes with Moog and Oberheim filters. It also includes a custom rack case which opens from the front and back with top-notch locking latches. You can expand it further with CS80, Arp 2600, Jupiter 8 or 303 filters.
Its hasn't been sent back to Studio Electronics to get their tune-up which improves tuning stability, eliminates the occasional voice-drop in Multi Mode when you page through the patches too quickly, and addresses other minor issues. Some buttons may double-click if you press them too long however the synth works well as is and its never bothered me enough to want to send it in."

"Condition is excellent for a 40 years old synth, shows a few splinters in the wood here and there but overall great shape for its age. Good: All keys work. All buttons and knobs work well, some scratchyness in some but would be cleaned up from a good cleaning. The "write program" button doesnt seam to work but maybe Im missing something.. Not so good: tested it out on a tuner last night, the lower two octaves show about from 5-10 cents flat, one was closer to 15 on the tuner, seems to be on par with a synth this old from what I hear but being the bass notes its harder to hear the pitch being out.. I would assume some capacitors on the synth probably need to be changed now or in the future due to its age, which might “tighten” it up. The headphone out works great but the mix out seems to be finiky sometimes but messing with the plug seems to work, probably another deep cleaning needed issue, the direct outs from each of the voices work well from what I can tell. With that all being said, understand this is 40 year old board and there might very well be issues arising that Im not aware of or noticing at the moment or will happen in the future so this board is being sold as is. Purchased 2 years ago from Tokyo Japan, comes with Korg road case with casters, Im assuming thats original from 1980. 100V but works well on American 120V but keep that in mind, theres conflicting opinions about analog gear being 'ok' with that small of a difference, Ive had a couple other old synths and it wasnt a problem."
Curious if the tuning issues are related to the power discrepancy.
