2 of the keys are newer than the ones on the synth(they look brighter)
I have included 3 spare keys incase you want to change them as i intended to fit them so there was no colour clash.

All working as it should..Great little mono synth."

"Very rare vintage monosynth in need of restoration.
I believe it is a kit synthesiser dating from the late 1970s/early 1980s
Sold as seen. I have had sound out of both oscillators and the noise generator but it is beyond my expertise to control it in any useful way. Not convinced all the keys work. Volume pot is crackly and sound can surge in and out. Very fat sound though.. Would suit synth enthusiast looking for restoration/ modification project. Or sound designer looking for unruly, unearthly rumblings...

Also, I just found this website with lots of useful info about this synth"

"This is a fully functioning Mini pops 5 Rhythm Drum Machine in excellent cosmetic and working condition. It comes with the original power cord as well as the original output cord. I purchased an RCA to 1/4" adapter, so the unit can easily be played through any standard amplifier! This unit is from the late 60's/Early 70's, and is an amazingly flexible drum machine that allows you to dial in a huge array of rhythms and beats while being able to tweak the speed, volume and tone. In the "Fox-Swing" and "Young-Beat" settings, you are able to tweak the sound to add or delete specific instrumentation from the rhythm. The chrome bar on the face of the unit is tapped by the user to start and stop the unit. There is also a built-in metronome that you can engage to play along with the beat/rhythm. Again, this unit is tested and fully functioning and is ready-to-play upon arrival. The shape of the unit is such that it allows it to be attached to any organ/shelf or table top securely by a set screw in the center, although it doesn't need to be. The unit sits flush when not attached to a level surface as well."

"Hordijk Modular starts quacking but is spoilt by annoying Brazilian nieghbour"

Thought this was pretty funny.   How many of you have had this happen to you?  I remember years ago drunkenly playing my Matrix-6 like I was the phantom of the opera. After about twenty minutes of it my roommate couldn't take it any more.  She popped out of bed, hair all disheveled and at the top of her lungs, yelled at me to please stop!  She was trying to sleep while I wailed away a slurry of rubbish on the Matrix-6 in the adjacent room.

Live Modular Synthesizer + REON Driftbox (@obrienmedia) "Haven Deux"


Published on Aug 30, 2015 Patrick OBrien

"This is the live studio version of the modular synthesizer set I put together for the Analogue Haven event in Santa Monica, CA on August 28, 2015.

All sounds were from my 12U eurorack Modular Synthesizer and the new REON Driftbox-R Limited from Roland.

Specs:

- The intro was played on the REON Driftbox-R which was released in July 2015. You can see two of my demos of that little synth here:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NMnZU...
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QcCl4...

- The drums are all Hexinverter's Mutant Bassdrum, Mutant HiHats, Mutant Clap and Noise Engineering's Basimilus Iteritas.

- I played Music Thing's Mikrophonie with my thumb during the song transition with the sounds coming from Braids.

- Sequencing is done by Intellijel's Metropolis, Kilpatrick Audio's K4815, and the Make Noise Pressure Points via Brains.

- The vocal samples near the end is from one of those secret Easter eggs on Mutable Instruments Peaks.

- The case is from Monorocket.

- The T-shirt is in support of my fellow modular synthesist Shiro Fujioka, known as VoltageCtrlr on Instagram. Check out his captivating music, too: https://instagram.com/voltagectrlr

No computers were used in this piece. All modular synths."

Mellow Sunday morning


Published on Aug 30, 2015 ISOTROPOSPHERE

"Just fooling around with my Korg products.

Saw a video which inspired me to try out live looping capabilities with the KP3 kaoss pad and it works pretty well.

Kind of unfortunate that the KP3 adjusts the pitch of your sample / loop when adjusting the tempo BPM manually or via midi.

The main selection knob on my Electribe ES-1 is also not tracking well and sometimes jumps backwards quite a bit when rotating for patch selection. Bummer.

Anyone else had these abnormalities? Was the individual loop volume for the KP3 a firmware upgrade?

Thanks and have a nice day..."

Live Synth Jam: Moog Sub37 and Aira TR-8


Published on Aug 29, 2015 Ziad Sarrouh

"Having fun with the Moog Sub37 sequencer.

This is my first real encounter / jam with the Sub37 since I got it a few days ago.

The step sequencer is amazing and highly tweakable live ; and with the new firmware, it gracefully turns everything you throw at it into something musical.

Started with an init patch and took it from there.

Recorded straight into Ableton via the Scarlett 6i6 with just a touch of reverb.
Drums courtesy of the Aira TR-8.

Love the aesthetic of these. It's kind of interesting when you think about it. With boutique synths usually the single maker designs the look of a give synth. Who designs the look of a synth for something like this?  I kind of miss the new look of synths.  Vermona has it going with the upcoming Vermona '14.  What happened to that one anyway?  It's not even on their product page.
