"This is the first mass-produced synthesizer from KORG in 1973.
The first mini KORG 700 is valuable because the "700S" was released immediately the following year.
Although it has a simple layout, it sounds very good as a so-called musical instrument, and it is one of the famous analog synthesizers."
"This is an 8 voice analog synth based on the famous and rare Elka Synthex. The instrument was bought straight from Black Corporation 25th of August 2020."
A rare chance to pick up an early example of this legendary instrument. Preliminary conclusions from our inspection is that it is original inside and out. It has an unusual heat sink at the top of the boards, but this is an early modification and may even be factory. It’s also notable that it is badged “VCS3a” on the serial plate: hence James describing it as ‘late/early’!"
"Rare EMS Synthi DK1 Cricklewood keyboard for sale in excellent condition. The perfect partner to your VCS3 or Synthi A... Can be upgraded to factory DK-2 duophonic spec during service."
"The DX200 is a really cool hands on FM synthesizer relic from the past that was the basic source of inspiration for the Elektron Digitone perhaps? It's maybe not as advanced and flexible but it certainly is a great one of a kind FM synthesizer that is so much more fun to use than a hard to program DX7. Check the video to find out how I use it, what my favourite features are and on which tracks I applied the Yamaha DX200.
In the end, the DX200 is a God-send for any musician looking for those classic DX/FM sounds without all the hassles and complexity of programming and maintaining the old synths that provided them. The DX200 has realtime control, built-in realtime sequencing, filters, morphing ability and much more! A true classic that stood the test of time but didn't increase in price on the vintage market, luckily. Still this synthesizer is hard to find but certainly not impossible to find!"

About: I decided it was time for a new sample pack with the focus on my Mono/Poly synth, a wild analog beast of a synthesizer from the 80’s that has a very unique approach and set of features like no other. It doesn’t like to sound smooth or lush but likes to go into the snappy and fierce spectrum. The fast analog envelopes allow for very snappy sounds and good envelope filtering. With 4 oscillators it’s very powerful and has the ability to make real cutting bass sounds and thick chords. The FM and CrossMod section allow for very fresh sparkling and glitchy percussion sounds that enter kind of a modular sound spectrum. On top it has a powerful arpeggiator that allows for some real freakiness.... The MP is a real secret electro weapon that rattles like no other synth. An all in one in electro synth that covers the whole domain of sounds you need.
Now I give you a solid complete taster of what it’s like in the form of a very cool sample pack that contains some of my personal recordings and also custom recorded samples for the kit.
I hope you’re having fun with these in your daw, elektrons, korgs or tr8s’s!"
