“This is really cool Vintage Yamaha SY77 Synthesizer Music Workstation Keyboard. It was well used but everything works great. There are normal light finish wear scuffs. The only real issue is one of the white keys sticks up a little more than the rest because when the key is pressed and springs back up, the position stop must be off or not functioning correctly, but it and all other keys work great. Includes the soft foam lined case as shown. “

“Yamaha SY77 61-Key Synthesizer – Vintage 1980s Sounds

Note: Available for collection only due to weight. It is very heavy. Item located in Leeds but can deliver within a 50 miles radius of Leeds for petrol cost.

Okay, the bad first:
– The D# on the first octave is stuck. It can be lifted by hand so it is not playing the note, but it will fall back down if let go. It will need a replacement key (can find for cheap on eBay).
– It crackles on playback more often than not. It occasionally plays nice, but don’t expect this to last for long. I suspect this may be the battery that needs replacing (common issue with these units). But I may be completely wrong. I don’t want to mislead, and it could just as much be a chip issue.
– I don’t know if the floppy drive works as I have no means of testing it.
– The rotating selection dial is wobbly and loose, but does still work.
– The text on the SHIFT, F6, F7, F8, EXIT buttons are faded due to use.
– The casing is quite heavily scuffed on all sides so please inspect the photos. It hadn’t been particularly well looked after by the previous owner.
– All its nooks and crannies need a good clean. I’ve given it a wipe down, but could still do with a bit of TLC.
– And not quite a ‘bad’, but it retains its original LCD screen which is fully working and functioning, but you may prefer to upgrade it to a newer brighter one.”

“I bought this synth at a yard sale a year or so ago. I didn’t realize it at the time of purchase, but at some point it was used in a smokey environment. I noticed the smell once I got it home. I don’t notice the smell any more, and everything still works with it, so I can’t say for sure if being in that environment effected it or not.

As you can see from the photos, there is one nob missing on the release slider. You can still adjust it though.

I’ve enjoyed playing with this thing, but I just don’t use it enough to justify keeping it. I do love the awesome 80s sounds it puts out and will miss it.”

“Yamaha DX7 Mk1 Digital Programmable Algorithm Synthesiser. The item is in near mint condition, it has a couple of tiny blemishes to the paint on the underside and two light scuffs on the top right below the screw which I’ve shown in the pictures.

Fully operational, it comes with a genuine breath controller, 2 extra ROM cartridges with extra voices and a hard travel case (see pictures). This belonged to a relative who was very meticulous in looking after his equipment and was used sparingly throughout its life. It has also had a new CR2032 battery professionally fitted as well as a new battery case making it easier to change the battery in the future.

The ROM cartridges are:

2 x original DX ROMS

CLAB XRAM 128 voice cartridge

DX 512 Monst-Rom cartridge”

“The Moog Micromoog is a one-oscillator (plus sub-oscillator) classic Moog monosynth from the ’70s.

It is capable of the classic “beefy” Moog basses and typical Moog synth “whistles”, but also of a lot more.

It features a very cool routable S&H circuit that one can even use to simulate an arpeggiator or a sequencer, and many other modulation & routing options that make this little synth very versatile.

If you’re looking for “crazy” synth sounds you will also find them in abundance here.

It was a budget unit, so the overall construction might not be as “strong” as the Minimoog, but it’s still fairly strong, and it is very portable.

It features a ribbon controller instead of the more customary pitch wheel, while it does retain the usual Moog modulation wheel, which you can use to control several parameters.

The filter is unmistakably MOOG, and you can also process external sounds through the Micromoog –
very useful feature.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

“DX7II-FD in as close to perfect cosmetic & working condition as I’ve seen on Ebay or elsewhere.

Never gigged.
No case damage, scratches, worn paint, broken keys, defective switches, etc. (well, there are a few scratches on the bottom). Any white specs in the photos are dust.
Numeric displays have all segments working; no LCD defects or scratches.
The only item not working correctly is the floppy drive. It reacts to commands, appears to work, but action ends in a Read/Write error. I will include a number of 720kb used floppy disks in case you figure out how to get it working.
Includes original cartridge with factory patches (tested loading factory patches, works), and additional patch banks and the original owners manual (worn but very usable condition)”

Owned this for several years, kept in my smoke-free studio. Will be shipped with LOTS of bubblewrap in a HUGE box so it arrives with no damage to you!

It’s a fully-functional Juno-60, and if you don’t know what this is, how nice it sounds, or what it does, please educate yourself instead of sending me questions. 🙂 No offense, I’m just cheesed that I have to sell it to pay some bills, so I don’t really want to answer a bunch of questions, I’d like it to go to a home where another musician will love it as much as I did.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

“Rather rare Yamaha SY-22 in very good condition.

— Nice working condition, works fine, clean

— Please look at the photos carefully, they arepart of the description

— Please notice the scratch above the vector control joystick on the left side

— This synth is capable of some really complextextures, due to its unique synthesis engine partly derived from the legendarySequential Circuits Prophet VS.

— Using a four point joystick that acts as ononboard mixer for four simultaneous wave samples, FM or evolving sounds, youcan create your own layers and record motion data along with your patch changes

— Great for TV or film soundtrack work and ambientelectronics, the Yamaha SY22 has been used by both Moby and Skinny Puppy.

— It has a full-size 61-key keyboard with velocityand aftertouch, is eight parts multi-timbral, and incorporates a small effectssection with 16 digital delays and reverbs.
— Could be used as a MIDI controller

— Used only occasionally, smoke free home, alwaysstored under a cover” Click here to search for synths on eBay

“It is with a heavy heart that i thin out my studio by starting with an Alesis Andromeda A6 polyphonic analogue synthesizer that is in excellent condition. This synth was purchased new in 2009 from Noisebug out of Pomona CA. I have been the only owner and it has spent all of it’s time in a studio in an upper rack where it was mostly played through a master keyboard. I never had any issues with this synthesizer. It has been my berlin school in a box.

The synth has suffered a few minor cosmetic blemishes over the years as is identified in the close up pictures provided. It is due for a new battery at the end of 2019. The pots were recently cleaned. I am a non smoker.

There is a steep learning curve with this synth to figure out it’s sweet spots so this synth would be best served with someone who has an excellent sense of programming. i admit, this synth humbled me at first. I deeply hope that this synthesizer finds a good home as it has served me extremely well.

Included are the A6 synthesizer, the power cable, a binder of tips and tricks from the internet to get you started and the original box.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

“Classic analog synth with amazing fat leads, lush pads and filter sweeps from early-mid 1980s, with MIDI, comes with hard case. Synth has some scratches and dings on body and wooden end pieces (see pics) which you would expect from a 30+ year old keyboard.

The high A key was cracked but repaired and fully functional, just shows some discoloration where it was glued (see pic).

I installed a brand new membrane keypad and LED display (an item that original component frequently fails on this model) about 15 years ago. Now operational, better than original.

Sequencer appears to work, has a program in there from a previous owner, but I’ve never really fiddled with it to verify its functionality.

I played this keyboard for years in a gigging/recording band and loved it. The nature of this beast is quirky–there are occasional hiccups and glitches that happen when you dial and switch–all good stuff–but sounds and knobs are all fully operational. Remember, this thing has a fully analog audio signal path, but the voltage controllers are digital. Best of both worlds!”
