"This is the rack mount version of the iconic ESQ-1 digital wave synthesizer from Ensoniq. (The ESQ-M is identical in synthesis functions but does not include a sequencer.)

In working condition (see tests, below). Used in a home studio setting (non-smoking), never toured.

Recent Maintenance:

* New battery installed September, 2023. (Manual states that batteries can be expected to last about 10 years.)
* Volume and Data sliders cleaned with Deoxit Fader

Tested:

* Midi Input - Working in all modes (Omni, Poly, Multi)
* Voice output - All 8 voices play on both L and R channels
* Filter tuning - All filters tune between 143-156 (Service manual states normal range between 140-160.)
* Memory back-up: Battery at 3.26 voltes, patches retained after long power-off period.
* Sys-Ex: Factory patch dump via SysEx successful.
* Fluorescent display still evenly bright and readable (may not be as 100% bright as when new but still works good)
* Volume slider does not crackle
* Data slider successfully hits full range of numbers
* All front panel buttons

Vermona twinVCFilter Overview Demo Videos


video uploads by vermonagear

"Learn about twinVCFilter a dual analog multimode filter for eurorack modular systems."

Playlist:

1. twinVCFilter - part 1: Filter Sweeps
00:00 - Intro
00:22 - Connecting twinVCFilter
00:44 - Filtersweep 12dB/octave lowpass
01:53 - Filtersweep 6dB/octave bandpass
03:02 - Filtersweep 12dB/octave highpass
04:18 - Filtersweep 12dB/octave lowpass (hi-gain)
05:33 - Ending

TwinVCFilter is a dual state variable filter with two identical filter sections, each providing 12dB/octave low and highpass as well as 6dB/octave bandpass. Both filter sections can be linked and combined in serial and parallel mode. TwinVCFilter can be extended with the tVCF-Extension module.
2. twinVCFilter - part 2: More Filter Sweeps
00:00 - Intro
00:46 - Filtersweep 24dB/octave lowpass
02:00 - Filtersweep 12dB/octave bandpass
03:13 - Filtersweep 24dB/octave highpass
04:33 - Filtersweep 24dB/octave lowpass (hi-gain)
05:52 - Ending

In the second video about twinVCFilter, we explore its serial mode. Connecting both filter sections in series doubles the slope, resulting in a 24dB/octave low and highpass and a 12dB/octave bandpass.

As in the first video, we sweep through all the filter types with different resonance settings.
3. twinVCFilter - part 3: Filtering a Sequence
00:00 - Start
00:07 - Intro
00:34 - Setup
01:13 - Fun with CUTOFF and RESONANCE / 12dB/octave lowpass
01:19 - 24dB/octave lowpass
02:08 - 12dB/octave bandpass
02:24 - 6dB/octave bandpass
02:38 - 12dB/octave highpass
02:55 - 24dB/octave highpass
03:13 - Ending

In this video we feed twinVCFilter with a sequence generated by our meloDICER sequencer and uniCYCLE oscillator and play around with CUTOFF and RESONANCE.
4. twinVCFilter - Part 4: Mixing Things Up
In this video we will explore twinVCFilter’s MIX function by modulating it with two channels of the fourMULATOR.
