"The rare Yamaha FS1R which has has the unique combination of FM and Formant synthesis. Contains over 1500 presets, with two sets of stereo outputs and onboard FX. There are a few desktop editors available including a MaxforLive device in Ableton Live, so that you don't have to use the small onboard interface."
"Unbelievable original USS-1 complete with the original pedal and even paperwork. This is one of the nicest complete sets I've ever seen for sale, and has just been serviced by a local tech. In great cosmetic condition with only a few light marks throughout. Genuinely, you'll not find a better complete unit! You'll not be disappointed."
"In this episode of Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools, we are going to have some clean 80s fun with the Korg PSS-50 SuperSection. Did we find the ultimate 80s cheesebox? Do you know any bends or mods for it?"
"A quick video we threw together some time ago, the Elka Wilgamat is a Drum machine, bass and chord generator from 1976 or so, originally part of the Elka X705 organ. We got this machine modded with separate outputs, sending the bass to the Maestro Sound System for woodwinds, a great 1960s filter/octave/fuzz effect, that stopped working during the making of this video.
The Syntorchestra 4 is of course the younger sibling of the Syntorchestra - a rather simple mono synth and divide down string / brass keyboard - it shares the controls of the older one, but sounds less characteristic.
We still really like it tho, the presets are great with some external boost."
🎸 In this instrumental series I'm playing some classics of Rock/Pop music history from the 60s and 70s, using my Vermona Perfourmer Mk2 Synthesizer and in this case also my Nord Drum 3P together with Ableton Live. I created a session in Ableton with Clips, but ended up creating a structure that was fixed, so I can play live the whole track on the Nord Drum. I automated some reverb and delay for adding movement, and afterwards mixed the song with some saturation, compression and EQ."
