Vintage WEM Watkins Copicat IC-500 Delay
via this auction
"This is an extremely rare model of the WEM Watkins Copicat... The serial number is very low (possibly because there were so few of these ever made): Serial: CW028 (I presume CW refers to the designer Charlie Watkins)... The technical description of the IC 500 states:
'The IC 500 employs no less than 3 charge coupled devices where the normally acceptable echo unit would only use one. This provides the special feature of unequally staggered delay "heads" and allows the unit to perform with a frequency band from 20Hz to 4kHz even at maximum delay time of 0.4 seconds. The IC500 is provided with 36dB anti-aliasing filter effectively removing spurious and harsh frequency interference.'"

Yamaha TQ5 FM Synth Module
via this auction
A video of one just went up on MATRIXSYNTH here.
"The TQ-5 was an entry level FM Workstation in a keyboardless, sparsely decorated desktop unit manufactured by Yamaha in the earli 1990s. It uses the same synthesis engin as the more well known DX-100, DX-21, DX-11, TX81Z and FB-01.
The TQ5 features 4 FM operators per voice, and 8 voices of polyphony with 8-parts multitimbrality. The TQ-5 also has easy "Quick Edit" keys to access some basic parameters for instant tweaks. The TQ-5 is capable of many of the great sounds associated with Yamaha's classic FM synthesizer.
Additionally, the TQ-5 features built-in digital effects and an 8-track sequencer (with 8 song capacity) rounding out the "workstation" aspect of this machine. This is an ideal way to get all of those classic FM sounds from the eighties in a compact, affordable package.
Key Specifications:
• Polyphony: 8 Voices
• Oscillators: 4FM operators with 8 waveforms
• Effects: reverb, chorus, echo, distortion
• LFO: one LFO
• Filter: No Filter
• Envelopes: ADSR envelopes
• Arpeg/Seq: Arpeggiator: None; Sequence: 8 track, 8 song.
• Keyboard: None
• Memory: 100 presets, 100 user patches, external memory card
• Control: MIDI (8 parts)."
