@NeneExists synced the video with the Bad Apple MIDI remix we made ^^ Damn the Yamaha MU100 has a good drum set.

Sometimes you say "I need 30 seconds of Bad Apple for a bit on Stream" and then an entire production happens 
Ready to get down to business.
Morning :o) .. a nice piece for the lovers of synths and cats :D. Chilled ambient from Stefan <3
Dose of the 90s vibes!
'Bird Apple' is a remix I made together with @NeneExists This songs based off Touhou Bad Apple (feat nomico) and was remixed in midi primarily for the 1997 Yamaha MU100 and also featuring the 2012 Roland Integra 7. I did the work on the midi and recording, Nene did the mixing and mastering. I got a little playful with it, so have fun! ^v^

So what's on the other side? To go with a 2600, you know you want some sequencing goodness from the Arp 2500!
Note the external 16 pin power connector on the left side, in case I add an expander.
SynthFest France April 11 to 13, 2025
Join us for an electrifying weekend at SynthFest France, the ultimate event for synthesizer enthusiasts, musicians, and electronic music lovers! Taking place in the heart of France, this festival is a celebration of sound, technology, and creativity.
During the last 4 years, I rabbit-holed the Prophet VS. Driven by the question:
Why is it sort of the '303 of Dub Techno'?
This post documents what I learned so far. And includes minor chord samples of all presets of the actual hardware. Along with a bit of mythbusting.

Does any #electronics nerd have an idea what could be wrong with this funny old display? #fedihelp
The upper line has some segments that are always on everywhere, like a letter K without the first vertical line.
The second line is missing the lower right half vertical element everywhere.
It should read “ENSONIQ ESQ 1…” and “AND SEQUENCER…”
This is the display board of an #Ensoniq #ESQ1 #synthesizer, the first edition (metal case).
Voltages are all in spec. I tried cold spray on the ICs without an effect and I resoldered some stuff that looked dubious. But still.
Second image shows the chips apparently controlling the display.
So, the #Ensoniq #ESQ1 adventure continues. Turns out that the battery is still okay even, going to replace it anyways. The keys have/had bad contacts, which can be fixed by applying lots of contact cleaning spray containing funny chemicals.
The synthesizer stuff works like a charm apparently, I'd have expected issues there. Also the capacitors look alright.
But now I found out that the display isn't weird, it's broken. Some people in forums say I need to replace the display controller chip, which is out of production…
This might turn out to be a tough one.
This just in - the Apple iSynth! I really need this! #synths #synthesizer #apple

I just received a ClumsyMIDI Pi Hat I've setup with a Raspberry Pi 3 and the MT32-Pi software, to use with my Atari 520ST. Giving Ultima IV a listen.
$49 from Tindie. Good so far!

One of the final modules for my #StackSynth project: the #noise generator. It outputs white, blue, and pink noise and uses a #3904 and a #TL074 with a lot of resistors and a couple of capacitors.
It is based on Moritz Klein's video: https://youtu.be/0yB_h_wFkh4
I prototyped it on solderless #breadboard and then designed the #PCB in @kicad and let @aislerhq manufacture them again. It turned out quite nice and sounds great.

when i saw this roland PMA-5 gm/gs compatible PDA-sized synth come up for sale locally, i almost dropped what i was doing to go pick it up
sadly, some research proved that it is not SC-55 compatible as I had hoped (would have made an amazing portable Ultima VIII: Pagan player), but is instead an SC-50 with SC-88 GS patches. I guess games sound funny on it. sadly passed.
First gear domino has fallen... my humble Zoom 1204 FX has sold! Naturally I did this (see attached pic):
Look, it's not like I wasn't gonna put the money back into the studio eventually... and they got me with one of their semi-random sales where they're like, "Hey, you own a couple Arturia products... wanna get V collection for $150."
