You can find demos in previous posts here.

"The EML Synkey is a wild, rare synth originally from the mid 70s. It just predates the rise of the polyphonic analog synth. This is a mono synth that can stack harmonic intervals on any note played. You can create a bevy of one finger chords with ease. It also features an early version of aftertouch called “Second Touch.” While it was listed as having 13 oscillators, what it had was a single VCO utilizing divide-down technology.

These were used most notably by Herbie Hancock and Frank Zappa! In very good cosmetic condition, with some age appropriate wear and scratching of the wood surfaces. This Synkey just got the full treatment by our in house techs, and is ready for action!"

Behringer 921 Oscillator - Euro Trig Analog Computer


video upload by O.Z. Hall

"I just completed a Trigonometry Class (working on an EE course of study). When they got to the 'Graphing Trigonometric Functions' I realized that I could actually implement these functions with Eurorack modules acting as an Analog Computer.

I hope you enjoy this #shorts video."

Thanks to Felt Instruments' native integration with Touché, the plugins will react directly to your gestures without any additional setup."

Roland Jupiter-8 | Can a synth be worth this kind of money?


video upload by Espen Kraft

"Is the Roland Jupiter-8 really worth what the market is commanding these days? In my opinion, not a chance. It's a fantastic synth, but no synth is worth those prices, musically.
Of course, any object is worth whatever anyone is willing pay. That's the whole idea behind capitalism, but again, not musically. Period.
The way it looks made it the obvious 'poster' synth to be used in all those music videos in the 80s and that has made it so desirable, the looks. That's my firm belief. If you want the Jupiter-8 sound in a hardware form without going bust, get the MKS-80.

Again, a big thanks to Joakim Tysseng for letting me enjoy it for so long. Thanks man!"

" It was completely overhauled by Switched ON Music Electronics in Texas Austin in 2017 $1,088 to fix everything. Attached photo is the cost of work and the parts they replaced. ($1,088 to fix everything) So it should be still up to date since I used it less than 3 hours since 2017. There’s some cosmetic wear and the handle is missing. The previous owner replaced the keyboard connector to a five pin sturdy din connector so it’s solid."

Recently serviced and given a clean bill of health, this Prophet is a one-owner instrument, complete with the original shipping box. Founded by Dave Smith in 1974, Sequential Circuits forever changed music technology with the advent of the Prophet 5, which broke new ground as not only the first polyphonic synthesizer to enable players to store and recall presets, but also as the first musical instrument with an embedded microprocessor."
