"This is an Arp 2600 in great condition. Not only is the exterior and Tolex in great condition, the electronics are also in great condition, and all features work. Every key on the keyboard plays without glitches or drifting. Every slider, pot and jack work. All hardware on the cases and the Tolex covering are original. A matching 3620 keyboard is also in great shape and plays perfectly. The original lids for the 2600 and 3620 are included."

Roland JD-800 w/ Red Glue Keyboard Problem

Take a look at the last pic. You can see the metal slats used as key weights resting below. The red glue Roland used to adhere them to the keys eventually melts in warmer weather. It stinks as well. That said, if this Roland is working well otherwise, this might be a good price for someone that wants to clean them. You can find videos online on how to do it.

"TANZBAR 2, an analog drum sequencer by MFB that has a good reputation for analog drum synthesis and has been successful, has been greatly developed and has not been released in Japan.

In addition to each analog drum synthesizer part, it is equipped with an analog synthesizer part and a VOICE slot that can handle audio samples, making it a powerful total sequencer that is a hybrid of analog and digital. There is also a track that can control two external sound sources, and you can control the external sound source as the main sequencer.

Each part has its own bomb slider and mute button, allowing you to build grooves in real time. You can synchronize the clock with either USB MIDI or the MIDI terminal."

The ELKA Wilgamat 3

video by Vintage Audio Institute Italia

"Introducing the Elka Wilgamat 3

Probably from 1982 - if anyone has the exact production year - please get in touch :)

This is a 4 section analog auto- comp machine manufactured in Italy.
It was originally incorporated into organs but some stand-alone units we're made as well.
There's a predecessor was released in 1976 - the Elka Wilgamat - that has a quite similar layout and analog sound (if you'd like to know what sounds that one makes please search our channel for some videos we made previously)
Elka, to our knowledge at least, never released a Wilgamat 2.
The machine might not have the coolest individual sounds or rhythm-patterns, but summing up its different parts it can be a pretty fun machine to play and a great tool for us non-keyboardists to get started on new tracks.
It does not engage at all without the 2-octave keyboard, a compatible organ or foot pedal hooked up to it.
There are no MIDI or sync capabilities - although there is a "Clock Out" on the back - we're unsure if it actually works.
These have been known to be modified in a few different ways :
they have been MIDI-fied and clock synced - if you're interested in that please search the web."
