ROLAND VARIOS OPEN SYSTEM AUDIO CONTROL MODULE SYNTHESIZER

via this auction
"VariOS is an open-ended hardware/software system that allows musicians to build audio-based tracks with the same flexibility as MIDI. All processing is handled by the VariOS module, which is controlled using bundled software. The first software bundle is V-Producer for VariOS. This software lets musicians manipulate a sample's pitch, time and formant, add effects and even build complete arrangements while keeping the music flowing and without CPU drain. And since the VariOS module can be updated, the system can take on entirely new functions in the future.

"Perfect Working - Professionally Serviced

Roland's SDD-320 Dimension D stereo chorus rack was an instant studio legend upon its arrival in 1979. A subtle spatial enhancer, the Dimension was the go-to sweetener for vocals and piano in the early 1980s, used extensively by Brian Eno (who else), the Talking Heads, Kate Bush, Peter Gabriel, etc. In many ways the 320 is a predecessor to Empirical Labs' Distressor, which is increasingly ubiquitous and likewise revered as an "AWESOME" switch for its elegant compression and gain routines."

Elektron Machinedrum SPS-1 UW+ MK I Percussion Synthesizer


via this auction

"he Machinedrum is a MK I unit with both Userwave (UW) sampling engine AND the unit also includes the highly sought after +Drive. The +Drive was installed after the purchase of the Machinedrum hence the nameplate does not have the + next to the UW. If you look at the pictures of the screen you can see the +Drive functionality is selectable.

In addition to the plus Drive and the 16 banks of ROM samples it provides, I've also uploaded tons of CUSTOM KITS and drums to the Machinedrum, just as nice of an extra as the +Drive is. Sounds, patterns, kits, and songs can be transferred via MIDI from a computer very easily! RAM sampling is just as easy to do, allowing you to sample in any audio you want."
