"Today we are officially releasing Buchla and Tiptop Audio Model 266t Source Of Uncertainty which will start shipping to our dealers this week. This is one of those moments with a sense of accomplishment from making a wonderful module Don Buchla created in 1976 available again nearly half a century later, and also producing it in large enough numbers that it gets into everyone’s hands.

Price is $299 and pre-orders should be open at your favorite retailers now. The User manual is uploaded on the website, please check it out, this is a complex module with plenty of unique functions!"

♥ Made By Heart (II) - Audiovisual Jam Driven By The Heartbeat


video upload by Perplex On

"Here comes a little generative thing only using the heartbeat for generating and modulating audio and video. Using an early version of an app by @FloVerse which enables the heart rate measured with an #applewatch to be used as midi signal. In this case it’s emitting one midi note with every heartbeat. This note is then going into #chordjam @audiomodern to generate a random chord which is sequencing #aparillosynth. Adding a bit of texture with #uasilo and #uaneedlepoint. Besides the visuals are also getting this midi impulse which modulates the playback speed using #magicmusicvisuals."

V-SCALE User Guide: Precision Active Buffer & Multiple - Fix Tracking Issues, Accurate Pitch Sharing


video upload by AJH Synth Official

"Not all Buffered Multiples are created equal: The V-SCALE by AJH Synth is a precision active buffer and multiple, which can be used to correct impedance mismatches between instruments, controllers and modules that can cause inaccurate tracking/scaling of pitch CV's, leading to out-of-tune VCO's and synths. It can also compensate for synths, VCO's and VCF's that will not track a 1V/Oct CV signal accurately, by way of 4 adjustable outputs, with fine-tuning trimmers allowing a 5% positive or negative alteration. Also, it will function as a highly accurate buffered multiple, and allow the use of further passive multiples after it in the CV signal chain, without risking a loss of signal strength, which would also lead to tuning or tracking inaccuracies. Unlike many buffered multiples, the V-Scale has a very high input impedance, and a very low output impedance, so it can make the various input and output combinations of different instruments play nicely together.

WaveBoy -The Voder | The mythical Ensoniq effects - used in new ways


video upload by Espen Kraft

"The Voder effect is a bank of programmable filters that loads into the built-in effects processor of an Ensoniq EPS-16 PLUS or an ASR-10. The filters are multi-band parametric equalizers (EQs) that can be modulated in interesting ways - most notably, they can make a sound talk or sing words!

Like a classic vocoder, the Voder imposes the moving resonance of speech onto any input sound. But while the conventional vocoder uses a live vocal input to derive the control information, the Voder uses the music keyboard or MIDI.Support this channel on Patreon: https://www.patreon.com/espenkraft"

"This unit is unique and is the top of the line when it comes to ring-modulation and frequency shifting.

Unreal in a synth rack - it will exponentially expand your sonic pallet, adding new depth to familiar sounds.

This thing is actually too deep to describe - you need to play with it to really get it. But the sound and build of this all-analog piece is superb. If you’re a synth owner, this one unit will add a lifetime of exploration as you rediscover all your existing instruments in a new way.

Not many of these around . . ."

Moog Memorymoog SN 2853 w/ Anvil Case w/ Original Program Tape

"The Memorymoog was serviced by a pro technician in 2016. Here is the list of the works done on this beautiful Memorymoog:

• The board contacts have been gold-plated. This upgrade is crucial and hugely improves the tuning reliability of the Memorymoog.
• The battery was replaced.
• All pots were cleaned and lubricated

All 6 voices always pass the autotune and the tuning is rock solid.

Anvil case was also restored in late 2016. Original factory program tape is included.

The C sharp key in the second octave needs cleaning as it works intermittently. Other than that the unit is fully functional."

Studio Electronics MIDIMINI w/ R.A. Moog Trumansburg Minimoog #1190 Mixer, Filter, VCA, & ENV

Pics of the inside below.

"Studio Electronics custom built MIDIMINI featuring a genuine Trumansburg era R.A. Moog full back end with board 3 and board 4 harvested from Minimoog # 1190 circa 1972 along with a genuine Moog oscillator buffer board. It sports full military spec potentiometers and controls throughout and beautiful hand wiring with precision. Routine maintenance was performed mid 2022 with the power supply caps updated along with a full calibration. This will ensure longevity for it’s next owner.
With R.A. and MuSonics Minimoogs fetching 6 figures from the high end dealers in recent years, we hope the buyer ends up being one of the 1001-1200 owners for the sake of preservation.
As you can see the inside of the unit is extremely clean and flawless. The outer cosmetic condition clearly shows signs of being moved from rack to rack over the last 30 some odd years."

Oberheim DPX-1 Serviced with Floppy Emulator

"Maybe not the best cosmetically looking DPX-1 but it's a fully serviced one.

The power supply in those is badly designed, with leaking caps, unstable voltage, etc. That was all addressed and is rock solid. All other internal capacitors, including tantalum ones (known to burn) have been replaced. All capacitors are only Nichicon low ESR and Nichicon audio grade series.

The floppy emulator is installed with ~1000 of images from EMU Emulator II library. DPX-1 can load natively EII, Mirage, P2000, Akai data. When it comes to EII, it converts it to the own format which takes about a minute. This was addressed too, all EII image data is in DPX format, so, it takes no extra time for the conversion.

This is also the rare version with dedicated 8 voice outputs installed and CD-ROM interface."
