Yamaha TG33 Vector Synthesizer

via this auction
"THE GREATEST THING ABOUT THE TG33 IS THAT THE MOVES YOU MAKE WITH THE VECTOR JOYSTICK ARE TRANSMITTED OUT THE MIDI PORT. This information is seen by your sequencer (or computer sequencer program) as midi controller number 16. This gets especially cool if you run the TG33 into your mixer in stereo. Another great thing is that the TG33 sports two extra audio out puts that the SY22 does not have. If you'ld like to try vector synthesis the TG33 is the cost effective way to go. Far less expensive than the Korg Wave Station or the Prophet VS."

MFB Synth 2

via this auction

"The MFB-SYNTH II is a monophonic Synthesizer module. It uses analogue circuits that are voltage controlled for oscillators, filters and amplification. The synthesizer is controlled by MIDI, CV/Gate or the integrated step sequencer that can hold up to 25 sequences with 32 steps each.

Here are the details:

The VCO sections contains three individual oscillators that are scaled to the volt/octave standard. The selectable waveforms are sawtooth, square and triangle. VCO II offers an additional impulse wave and pulse width control for the square wave. The octave can be set between 4`, 8`and 16` or 32’. An additional detune amount of plusminus one octave can be set for VCO 2 and VCO 3. The VCOs can either be modulatied by an LFO or VCO 3. VCO1 can be set to SYNC and two digital ringmodulations are available as VCO1+2 and VCO2+3.

The mixer allows level control of all oscillators plus noise and the level of the external audio input.

The lowpass filter is a resonant 24 dB/octave design. Emphasis (resonance) can be set up to self oscillation. The cutoff frequency can be automodulated by an LFO or by and VCO. KEY controls the influence of the keyboard pitch on the cutoff parameter (Keyboard scaling).

Both VCF and VCA have their propietary envelope generators with Attack, Decay, Sustain and Release parameters. The VCA can also be modulated by an LFO for characteristic tremolo effects.

There are LFOs. The waveforms offered are sawtooth, rectangle, triangle and random. The can be set to „One Shot“ mode to be used as simple envelopes.

The MFB-SYNTH II 50 preset- and 49 memory locations. The synthesizer will respond to incoming velocity data (MIDI). The velocity information can be used to control either VCF cutoff or VCA level. Pitch- and Modulation wheel are both recognized.

The step sequencer sends and receveives MIDI clock and responds to Start and Stop MIDI commands.
Connectors: MIDI In/Out, Audio In/Out , CV/GATE In, Power (power supply included)

Dimensions: 315 x 165 x 387 mm."

Waldorf MicroQ Phoenix Edition

via this Noisebug auction
"Manufacturer Description:
The best in a box. The Micro Q synthesizer delivers huge sound at a remarkably affordable price.

Powered by much the same sound generator as its big brother Q, Micro Q’s awesome audio performance comes as no surprise. Specifically, we’re talking about up to five oscillators and two multimode filters per voice, ultra fast envelopes, and LFOs so fast that you can even hear them, if you wish.

And the final 500 to feature the Phoenix Edition trim sport very special visuals. Cool today, they’re sure to be classics tomorrow.

The microQ's synthesis architecture and sound comes directly from the Waldorf Q Synthesizer and was packed into an nice 2u rack housing. Still the microQ is easy to program with its editing matrix (some users already may know a similar editing surface from the Waldorf Pulse Synthesizer). This allows you to edit nearly most of the sound engine parameters directly on the surface of this little beast without being in need of activating menus.

Not only the expensive sound of the Waldorf Q was implemented: also the powerful arpeggiator and the versatile Drum Map can be found in the Waldorf microQ, too.
