Special Synton Syrinx

One of the new arrivals for this week...




This was a limited edition, custom Syrinx done by Synton. Neat, huh?!
(And no, it's not for sale!)

Fun w/an Ody!

Click here to see a video of me playing around with a white Ody in mid-restoration.
(Though y'know, I've been wanting to re-label what we do as "rebuilding" as opposed to "restoring," 'cause it seems to be a more accurate term. Or at least there seems to be a bit of a variation about what "restoring" a synth entails.)


The 2600 keyboard cables are up on eBay, along with a bunch of other stuff.
If you buy anything from my auctions and mention that you saw this post, I'll include some Moog or Arp vinyl stickers with your order! :)

Coming soon: Arp 2600 keyboard cables

Yep, you read that subject line right! :)

Stay tuned for more details!

Getting Jiggy With Synthfool #9: Match Game

This little setup enables me to match resistors, with the end goal of making Minimoog oscillator boards happier! :)

For what it's worth...

My parts sales are for repairs & restorations.
I won't sell parts in bulk.
I also won't lie on customs forms, especially if I say so in an auction!
If a shipping price is kinda high, it means that's the best method of shipping the item, and/or it requires insurance.

Getting Jiggy With Synthfool #8: Air Cooled Dummy Load

An oldie but a goodie:




This is used to run an amp at full power while monitoring it on a scope.
Produces 4 ohms or 8 ohms using 4 8ohm 100 watt resistors that have a fan attached to them.
Teflon wire was used to make this durable, and it's stood the test of time quite well!

More eBay...

Put a bunch of stuff up on eBay today.
Some of the usual things and some unusual things. :)

Getting Jiggy with Synthfool #7: OTA/AMP Tester

Made from one of our buffer board clones, this little tester works with the Amerel power supply to test LM3080's and single opams.






It features a special socket for easier insertion and removal of opamps, and it is a very quick and simple way of testing opamps.
