"Synclavier II stereo 16 voice FM synthesizer in very good condition. The package comes with the ORK keyboard, the floppy drive with the boot up disc, the Winchester hard drive with loads of sounds, a Kennedy tape drive for sample to disc, a sample to disc module, the Apple Mac computer running the termulator software, and factory owners manuals.

I have always been fascinated by the lore of this instrument. It has definitely held up to its legendary history - it is capable of sounds unavailable anywhere else and is really fun to explore.

Now, the fine print: I bought this instrument in April, 2021 as a fully functional 16 voice FM system, and it works flawlessly. The unit comes with a sample to disc module, and tape drive to sample to, BUT the current operating system DOES NOT support those features. I am also selling a Synclavier VPK keyboard on a separate listing because it is not supported on this software release. There is plenty of support for this instrument, and obtaining an updated software release should be very easy, I just have not pursued it as I am downsizing my studio and need to sell most of my collection. Just keep in mind that while this Synclavier comes with these added features, you are buying a 16 voice stereo FM synth. It is being offered at the price that I have invested, so keep that in mind if you want to make an offer."

You can find a demo of one here.

"Yamaha MU10 portable XG Midi synthesizer. These are great sleeper sound modules.
They play general midi as well as XG midi and sound fantastic.
Works via MIDI or serial using a macintosh style minidin.

The MU10 is on par with a MU50 in terms of polyphony/multitimbral. Just without controls or an lcd. (And you never really need those)

Tested, and clean. Works with AA batteries or any 12V power adapter (not included)"

New RYK Modular M175 Triple Vactrol Resonator for Roland System 100m Modular Systems

M175 SYSTEM 100M Triple Resonator

Bringing the Lush 70's sound of Multiband Resonators to the System 100m

Introducing the new updated M175 Triple Resonator from RYK Modular.

Consisting of three resonant Band Pass Filters arranged in parallel, the M175 is great for adding some shape and character to a sound.

Use the triple peaks to add acoustic style resonant spikes, or modulate them to create dramatic phaser style swooshes and sweeps.

Or carefully tune the centre frequencies to create formant style vocal noises from waveforms with high harmonic content such as pulse waves.

The M175 contains three dual Vactrols to control the centre frequency of each resonator, which add a small amount of slew to the frequency modulation, famously associated with classic Buchla modules.

FEATURES

Three Vactrol controlled Band Pass Filters arranged in normalised parallel, or can be used as three separate filters.

Audio input signal is normalised to all three resonators, but can be overridden by inserting a jack into the resonators 1st inputs allow them to be used separately.

A mix output is available that sums the output of all three resonators, by inserting a jack into a resonators individual output overrides its output from the mix output.

Keyboard CV is supplied via the standard System 100m DIN connector, to the 1st modulation input of each resonator.

The 2nd input of the first resonator is normalised to each of the other two resonators

Authentic high quality reproduction of Roland System 100m panel, with 100m grey paint finish and 70's off white screen print.
