"If you've never heard one, here's a nice description: 'piano sounds like a square wave mixed with a sawtooth, the clavichord is a pulse wave, and the bass is a square wave, very short and percussive and electronic sounding. Best sound....piano mixed with clav with phase on - instant Kraftwerk,'"
Note this is the first post to feature the Pioanotronic 61.

THE MEANING Finding the perfect idea shouldn't be at the expense of creative momentum. The Precision Disrupter is a generative Eurorack sequencer that relies on controlled randomization to create melodic & rhythmic patterns with ease and relentless conviction.
THE IDEA Unlike other generative sequencers in euorack, the Precision Disrupter offers complete command over the randomization parameters and then immediately empowers you with fine-editing controls for precise, real-time performance punch.
THE BOTTOM LINE The Precision Disrupter is a melody generating powerhouse. Quickly find the the perfect sequence, breathe in the inspiration, and show them what you are made of.
THE INSPIRATION We would like to thank the companies and products that have inspired us to start Anti-Kulture and to build the Precision Disrupter. They've had a heavy influence on our music and in the creation of our products. Without them, this wouldn't be possible. Audiorealism, Ableton Live, Arturia, Native Instruments, Elektron, Moog, Buchla, Erica Synths, Mutable Instruments, Make Noise, Instruo, Tip-Top Audio, Intellijel, Doepfer, Cwejman, Waldorf, Teenage Engineering, Roland and many, many more.
And some pics via this auction, with the following:
"I purchased this new on the first round of pre-order (serial #021) and it has been used only a couple times and only in my smoke free home studio. Super cool and powerful idea generating machine and fun for jamming. Ships in original packaging with ribbon cable etc."
"Like nearly all the high end vintage analog synths we sell, this item has been METICULOUSLY disassembled, cleaned inside and out, FULLY serviced by professionals who’ve been servicing and selling vintage synths for more than the last 3 decades, and systematically tested multiple times over a long period to ensure it’s working exactly as it should. No BS. No ebay surprises. We’re perfectionists and don’t cut corners. Although this instrument came to us in relatively good shape, we want our items to be better than the rest and invested *many* hours of tech time plus parts costs to fully overhaul this unit so it would be clean, working like new again and as reliable as possible for its next owner. This was a serious investment of time, love, and money, and was definitely worth the effort and is of course reflected in the higher than usual price. If you’re looking for a great sounding example of this model that works just like it should without needing to invest hundreds or thousands of dollars in tech fees and waiting from weeks to years, this one should make you very happy.
We paid our tech for 10 hours of work to refurbish this unit so it would be better than others on the market. He did the following work to it:
Replaced all LEDs. Cleaned unit inside and out, including removing the typical moog foam that turns to tar Replaced power supply electrolytic capacitors for longevity Cleaned and lubed key contacts Removed and remounted AC cable Recalibrated VCOs, checked VCF and VCA"
"We're patching with Jam Jam, our trigger and gate processor, to make an instant jam, swing patterns, wind chimes, staggered gates and triggers, and long delays.
Jam Jam is a four-channel trigger and gate processor with three modes: Random, Clock Phase, and Gate Delay. JJ is so versatile, you’ll find use for it in every patch.
Add a bit of variety to your patch with Random mode: use four channels of individually adjustable probability to process gate or trigger patterns.
Use Clock Phase mode to add some organic feel to your sequences—or break them in and out of sync completely.
Gate Delay mode is a powerful timing tool useful for anything from precise adjustments for latency compensation to big changes for creative patching: delay events from sub-millisecond adjustments to huge delays of over 15 seconds.
Jam Jam is a musical and fun utility you won’t want to be without. And with voltage control over each channel in all modes, Jam Jam is a completely new way to work with binary signals in your patches."
"Enjoying once again the unique sounds of the ROLAND D50 SYNTHESIZER from 1987, this time using the ROLAND CLOUD LEGENDARY SERIES VST PLUGIN SOFTWARE SYNTH.
Demo of the fabulous pads, chiffy leads and sound effects
"The 3rd wave synthesizer by Groove Synthesis is a powerful digital synthesizer with some amazing analog circuitry. It's quickly become my favorite synthesizer in my studio. It allows users to create a wide range of sounds, from realistic instrument tones to complex waveforms. The synthesizer has tons of knob per function and includes really high quality built-in effects. I mean, look at this list of features JUST on the sound engine.. 32 classic, PPG-legacy wavetables.. 64 waves per table..
48 high-resolution custom wavetables with 64 waves per table.. a total of 64 high-resolution user wavetables.. 7 high-resolution modeled analog waveforms (including continuously variable color noise).. Linear FM.. a 6-stage wave envelope per oscillator with variable time and position that can be looped.. and Optional wave flow for smooth or stepped wave transitions.. That's just the beginning of the synth. Don't forget the analog filter which came from Dave Rossum, 4 envelopes, 4 LFOs, effects.. this synth is a sound designers DREAM. Easily one the best synths for Sound Design right now.
OB-Xd is a classic synthesizer with a timeless sound that continues to captivate musicians and producers alike. With its rich, full-bodied tones and expansive sound design capabilities, the OB-Xd is the perfect choice for those looking to add a vintage touch to their music. Whether you're producing electronic tracks, recording live instruments, or composing for film and television, the OB-X is an invaluable tool that will bring a unique and expressive quality to your sound. So why wait? Add an OB-Xd to your studio today and take your music to the next level!
The OB-Xd is a synthesizer that has been designed to recreate the sound and behavior of the Oberheim OB-X. However, the original design of the OB-X was limited in some ways, so the OB-Xd includes a number of additional or altered features. One key feature of the OB-Xd is its implementation of micro random detuning, which helps to create a fuller, richer sound. Overall, the OB-Xd has been designed to produce a sound that is as good and as rich as the original OB-X.
"Reworked video demo - Music first, explanation second. Introduction to new L-Fusion Electronics Dual Analog Triangle Core Voltage Controlled Oscillator (VCO) compact 16HP Eurorack Synthesizer module with linear, exponential and through-zero FM modulation, sub oscillator and integrated crossfaders. For best sound experience use headphones or studio monitors.
This fully analog Eurorack Synthesizer module offers two identical VCOs - each oscillator is based on super stable analog SSI2130 VCO IC served by 46 opamps doing precision analog math. In total there are 34 analog ICs (Integrated Circuit chips) and 449 other parts. This video demo was made using two of these modules or 4 VCOs in total spread across 3 voices.
In analog VCO sound wave is generated by charging and discharging precision capacitor controlled by temperature compensated exponential converter, generated triangle wave then goes to wave shapers producing different wave forms. Such technology outputs supreme audio quality.
Pitch is tuned to standard 1 volt per octave, oscillator provides excellent tracking across 10 octaves, it can be tuned with precision of +-1 cent or 0.01 semitone."
