"The CZ-101 is a classic Casio digital synthesizer that uses Phase Distortion synthesis to shape sounds. You can Select between 8 waveforms which are then modulated by it's three 8 stage envelopes which control pitch, phase angle, and amplitude. This style of synthesis is similar to FM synthesis which gives them a character not unlike the Yamaha DX/TX line of synthesizers but at a much lower cost. It also features 8 note polyphony, 32 patches of memory (16 preset, 16 user writable), ring modulation, and vibrato with selectable waveforms for LFO like effects."

"This particular unit was imported by Klassic Keys GB from Japan (100V). Our Roland specialist tech gave it his attentions. This is what has been done:-
1) converted to 220/240Vac operation + NEW mains cord and plug fitted + PAT tested
2) cleaned key contacts, to ensure perfect triggering every time, staccato or whatever.....
3) fitted MIDI kit (from Netherlands), and tested operation thereof....
4) inspected everything "under the hood" ~ installed fresh internal battery, checked all connectors/tuning etc......dco fader (by bender) is a bit "lumpy" (still works), 3-click HPF ratchet control can "jump" on extreme setting, but works OK if moved gingerly. NOTE...this synth IS 40-y-old, and commands respect/gentle operation. ~ reloaded the 56 original factory "presets" via cassette (a vintage recording device from a half a century ago....ha, ha)...they can be used as a reference/starter point enabling you to create your own patches,.... the wonder of subtractive synthesis!
Condition:- really nice, overall. Keys are nigh immaculate (95% good?), main panel is nearly scratchless, with all the distinctive colourful lettering looking great. All push-switches, toggles & faders do their job without noise, and all LEDS work perfectly. "Wood" veneer is slightly damaged on some corners/rims (it usually is...), and the internal dust covers on the toggles are missing (no idea why...), but that is of little consequence. In summary, a cool, working example of one of THE most famous synths ever made; and should continue to impress for another 20 years? Copy manual will be supplied."

Original Novation BassStation Keyboard Synthesizer SN 0007531

"Before the famous Novation Bass Station Rack module came the small and portable Bass Station keyboard! This synthesizer uses digitally synchronized analog oscillators (DCO's) to reproduce the sounds of a monophonic dual-osc analog synthesizer with simple and intuitive controls via 17 knobs, 10 switches and 2 Moog-style pitch/mod wheels. Think EDP Wasp and ARP Odyssey. The Bass Station can faithfully reproduce analog bass sounds similar to a TB-303, Micromoog or Pro One synthesizer. The small keyboard and monophonic architecture set this keyboard up for strict bassline, lead synth lines, and synth fx. It also transmits MIDI continuous controller data from its pitch/mod wheels, frequency cutoff, resonance, filter modulation depth, env1 attack, decay and env2 attack and decay."

Amdek DMK-100 Delay Machine
video upload by Geylo Follen
"In 1981 Roland establish a new Japanese division, called AMDEK (Analogue Music Digital Electronics Kits) Although Roland was based in Hamamatsu by the early '80s, Kakehashi established the AMDEK Corporation in Osaka. Their main product lines were small effects units and computer monitors manufactured for Roland.
This DMK100 delay model was released in 1981 sold as a DIY kit and can be built in a couple of hours using only a soldering iron, cutters and screwdrivers.
With delay times from 25 to 300 mS it can produce a wide range of echo, reverb and flanger effects and has a selection of input and output level and mix facilities with a lovely distorted sound if you crank the volume.
I modded my unit by adjusting the Intensity VR5 trimmer to get wild sounds and make the unit go to self oscillation."
SYNTHR 4 "ESCAPE FROM LYON" DEMO n° 2
video upload by KurtzMindfields
"For this second basic vidéo, i explore the poly sequencer (4 voices chords) & the arpeggiator (with midi synchro), the LFO 1 with sync, the sample & Hold with paraphonic mode, lead VCOs sync with EGMod, and live effects (Delay Ping Pong, shimmer delay & reverb). Aftertouch, VCF and LFO still controlled by Wheels & aftertouch for expressive playing.
A little tribute to James Cameron old soundtracks.
