Sequential Circuits Pro-One SN 9661 w/ Updated Keybed

via this auction

"The backstory with this instrument is that I bought it used in Feb. 2020, replaced the keybed with the drop in replacement from Techsmechs, and then had it tuned and calibrated by Matt at Futura Electronics. I then traded it to a friend who didn't use it much for the past couple years. Then I got it back over this past summer.

Cosmetically, it's particularly nice and I'd even say a cut above the rest. Very few signs of use at all. This is a higher serial number, made in September of 1983, hence why I had to replace the old membrane keyboard.

Functionally, it's working great and it sounds beautiful. Just give it 30+ minutes to fully warm up just like any other vintage analog synth. All ins and outs are working as they should. Sold AS-IS, as described in vintage working order."

Bad Gear - A Tragedy???

video upload by AudioPilz

"Welcome to Bad Gear, the show about the world's most hated audio tools. Today we are going to talk about Dreadbox Nymphes. Is this compact polyphonic analog synthesizer a worthy replacement for classics like a Roland Juno or the Sequential Circuits SixTrak it was inspired by? Is it on par with other Dreadbox synths like Erebus and Typhon and is the UI truly a tragedy???"

Tech Thursday | Slew limiters as Filters

video upload by Joranalogue Audio Design

"It's Tech Thursday! In these concise videos, we bring up some overlooked and advanced features of our modules.

Joran is back with a clever feature in one of the Joranalogue modules. We have all been there, you've got an ingenious patch going but you really need an extra filter. You're in luck if you've got an extra slew limiter lying around because this week is all about using Contour 1 as a filter!"

To see how the theme was created, watch the theme video in this series. It is comprised of several patches created on the Taiga over drums created with a Korg Triton Studio.

Expressive E OSMOSE Synth JAM - Friday Fun

"More exclusive footage for this on: http://patreon.com/sonicstate
#fridayfunsynthjam #osmose #rc505

We've been lucky enough to get hold of an Osmose - which is the new keyboard instrument from Expressivee.com .

We've been struck by the way it encourages you to create, the extra expressivity afforded by the per key pressure and lateral movement is a joy. It sort of pushes you to go for notes one might not ordinarily attempt - obviously thats not without risks 😁

Each of the on-board patches that take advantage of the Eagan Matrix - the physical modelling engine at the heart of this instrument are almost like an instrument in their own right, with expressivity allowing for quite drastic timbral changes, whether it be velocity, initial pressure, secondary pressure or lateral movement of each key!

However, its not all good news, the editor for the Eagan Matrix only runs in MaxForLive and frankly is a nightmare, assuming you can actually get it running. We've not managed that yet.

But there are a four macro knobs per patch, plus the additional mod wheel and keyboard modulations for each of these as well as editing of the master FX, EQ, compression and drive - so you can modify a lot.

We love it so far."
