Man, this just came up on Pandora and took me to another place. What a cool song: Papua St. Tropez by La Tienda.

Cool. Do you still play it?
I just sold 2 CEM 3360 chips that I'd had for years. I think Siel made the original Novation BassStation synths. They made stuff for Roland too - some 90s era samplers I believe.
I make strange unrepeatable sounds on the Siel from time to time (the down side of a basic analogue synth, I have the manual and it has charts at the back so you can record the settings...it's blank!) The modular one, I sold what I had years ago...I'll see if I can find an example of it, think I came across something a while ago.
listening to Kandace Springs - Soul Eyes while I do brainless wiring for some models about to be tested at the office.
fabulous!!!

Not sure, about 10 or so, I only barely got it functioning and just as a mono synth, I'd bitten off more than I could chew to be frank. I got into CB radio and annoyed others by using it to make silly extended roger bleeps.
Holst's "The Planets," transcribed for organ by Peter Sykes, performed by Hansjörg Albrecht on the Cavaillé-Coll-Mutin organ in St. Nikolai (Kiel), recorded in 5.1 multichannel on SACD, Oehms Classics cat. # OC683.
What a delightful idea, and so well executed here. Wondrous musical imagery, given a new window via the King of Instruments. Very nicely recorded, with good balance between organ and space. Solid low end and surround sound. Tempos seem to languish a bit at times to my ear, but not by much. I'm really enjoying this.

Scott, I still have the not-quite-finished modular synth I started as a kid back in the mid-late '70s. made from Aries modules. I made it to 6 or 7 modules + keyboard before the company ceased operations. :/ I need to clean it up and sell it - people are paying utterly silly money for that stuff these days.
Coincidentally, just last week I discovered a (very) small stash of CEM & SSM ICs while cleaning out a closet. 🙂

You might be sitting on a small goldmine there - especially the SSM chips.
