Sequential Circuits Six Trak (for sale) + Roland RE-201 (just restored for @papanoongaku )
This Six Trak is considered to be one of the first Groovebox synths featuring six tracks that can be layered to make some cool sequences/scratch pad ideas. It features an arpeggiator and was just restored by our shop with the latest Tauntek Firmware (which makes it a whole lot more useful!) New Walnut sides were custom made by us, and they look great!

OBERHEIM FOUR VOICE FVS-1 that was just in the shop! Truly one of the GOAT vintage synths made by Tom Oberheim in 1975. It’s remarkable because he designed a programmer with 16 memory presets without the use of a CPU. It has two envelopes on the programmer section and custom Curtis envelope chips. I think of this synth as the first true programmable poly synth, while most people consider the Prophet 5 (which came out years later!)
This FVS was fully restored and overhauled by our shop and is on its way to its new home out in California! Enjoy this beauty @aroomaudio !

Roland Juno 60 + Tubbutec MIDI +Infernal Machine IM90! Such a great combo and I haven’t really even touched the surface yet on the IM90. I was using some reverb and pitch algorithms in this video.

Here’s some footage from this past weekend at Capital University’s Sound and Media Festival. I went over lots of synthesizers, Roland space echo, answered questions on vintage synthesizers and had some jam sessions with some of the students/faculty/local musicians. We’re going to try doing this again next year, so I’ll post about the next presentation/demo in 2027. Shoutout to @mercirule for 🎥🎥📸📸shooting the video/photos of the event.

1976 Minimoog Model D restored for @battletapes /Jeremy Ferguson! It was shipped in with faulty wiring/LHC issues and the tuning wasn’t correct! These vintage Minimoogs sound so incredible when they are all fixed up/calibrated.

ARP 2600 Restoration + New Tolex (first attempt turned out good!)Figured it was worth making a post to see some before/after photos! Lots of love went into this restoration because it was deemed as a “parts machine” for many years, then I brought it back from the dead.

ARP 2600 + Sequential Circuits Model 700 Programmer + ARP 3620 Duophonic Keybed restored!
💵💵Sequential Model 700 Programmer FOR SALE!💵💵
The 2600 is the one I have been posting about the past week, fresh with all new Tolex and it’s been fully restored inside/out!
This Sequential Model 700 programmer took some time to restore also, it had a leaking battery (which spreads all over everywhere inside) It had lots of intermittent switches/the memory circuitry was faulty (6 bad CMOS, 2 Dead Ram chips and 2 Faulty voltage regulators) Whenever there’s intermittent faults on something that doesn’t have the greatest schematics, it can take a while to restore, but I’m glad it’s finally ready to go!
