The shores of broken tears | Chroma Polaris, Hologram Microcosm, and Emotional Cello
video upload by MIDERA
"I started off wondering whether I wanted to keep the Polaris. I use it so infrequently, and I have a Prophet 10, which must be better. Right? And then I thought maybe I should try it out with the Microcosm again and maybe try out looping on that thing. So I did that. And then it was done but I felt like it could use something else. So I then added to it with Emotional Cello VST... And yes, it felt blasphemous to use the Prophet 10 to control a VST, but it had a simple USB connection and 5 octaves so I used it. The Prophet 10 was not used for audio in this track at all. It wasn't needed.
Also - for the record, the Polaris has some girth under its belt. There is a sound there that is certainly lacking in the Prophet 10, which is polite beyond a doubt comparatively."

"Updated with brand new capacitors and battery, this JP8000 comes loaded with all the original factory sounds. It is in perfect playing condition, with the exception of the mod wheel getting stuck on the high note in the range on certain patches (not the physical wheel, which works perfectly)."

"The Yamaha CS-30L is an analog synthesizer that was released in 1977. It is the top of the range in Yamaha's original line-up of monophonic synthesizers. It features two voltage controlled oscillators (VCOs), two voltage controlled filters (VCFs - both featuring low-pass, band-pass and high-pass options), two voltage controlled amplifiers (VCAs) and three envelope generators. It also sports a ring modulator, a voltage controlled LFO and a variety of switches for routing signals. This synth is fantastic for making some crazy sound design!"

"A simple but fantastic monophonic synthesizer for bass and leads! One of Roland's last to use only discrete circuit design and the classy predecessor to it's more famous siblings SH-09 and SH-101.
Highlights include:
Two oscillators, with independent tuning
Sub-osc for VCO-1
Full 3 octave keyboard (F to F)
Random / Sample and Hold on the Modulato
Single ADSR envelope assignable to PWM, VCF, VCA
CV and Gate pairs for both input and output
External input for processing
About this specific listing:
Minor paint scratches and rust as pictured, but confirmed all keys, button, levers and knobs working well.
Some yellowing on the keys (there are tutorials on how to whiten backup)
Recently applied Deoxit to the volume pot - sounds clean through the range now.
Only opened this unit once to clear out a previous owner's cat hair (You're welcome) and did not see any obvious signs of re-soldering or replacement parts.
Includes original hard case
Includes a PowerBright step-down transformer (120v to 100v) that will ship separately"
