“I’ve been gallantly hanging on to this old beauty for years but needs must and it’s time to free up some space in my studio…
A rare chance to grab a Yamaha SY55 Late 80’s/Early 90’s synth.
All “obvious” features are working – ie, it plays and changes patches, outputs in stereo…
I’ve not used the Sequencer nor the MIDI for decades and never used a ROM card. I can’t see why they wouldn’t be working but it is a case of buy what you are seeing given it’s age.
The lowest black key (C#) works but needs looking at as the “spring” action isn’t working and the key itself is loose; I’ve tried to show this on the photo above but it isn’t showing very well.
Also, there is a chip out of one key as shown in the photo.
A chance to grab some genuine 80’s/90’s synth sounds for an absolute bargain – please put a bid in as I’d hate to have to throw it away!” Click here to search for synths on eBay

“Yamaha DX-100 in overall very nice condition. Some light scratches.
New internal RAM battery installed prior to listing.
Slight dents seen in under where rightmost keys are. These were caused
by wrong size screws previously placed in the bottom. The correct sized ones are now used. These screws seal the synth and keybed well.
FM synth very popular to play bass lines, synth leads and generate talkbox effects.
Has guitar strap buttons so you can play it like a keytar.
Battery door present. May be powered with AC adapter (included) or 6 ‘C’ batteries.”

“1x Sequential Circuits Pro One Vintage Synthesiser
In good working order, just had a service
Rebushed j-wire keyboard, plays nice and keys are level
Couple small chips on the front panel which are purely cosmetic
Missing both name badges, which it has been since I got it.
All time classic mono synth from sequential circuits. essentially a single voice prophet – and too wonderful for any words to do it justice! It also is the model with a Tibetan Buddha and chant* stencilled on the circuit board, for extra good vibrations!”

“Up for auction is my Sequential Pro One vintage analog synth w/MIDI in near mint condition. It has the more desirable j-wire keybed which has been painstakingly refurbished.
What has been done:
MIDI kit installed. Simply connect a MIDI cable from your controller or sequencer to the MIDI IN jack. Hold the red button down to enter MIDI mode. Send the kit a MIDI note and it will respond on that channel from that point forward. A red LED above the pitch/mod wheels indicates whether or not it is receiving MIDI. CV/GATE can also be used.
Keyboard bushings replaced, bushings greased, j-wires polished, every key removed/cleaned/polished, and keybed painstakingly adjusted to perfection (both height and width). Each j-wire adjusted so that they hit the buss wire at the same time for more accurate keyboard response. Keyboard now plays like butter. I have extensive experience refurbishing pratt-reed keybeds and took extra care to make this synth play like a dream. This easily took 4-5 hours of painstaking work to complete.
Prophet-5 knobs with metal caps installed. Paint on caps is absolutely perfect, with no scratches.
Every knob removed and cleaned with a toothbrush to get all the dirt out of the cracks.
Wood panels removed, sanded, waxed, and hand-rubbed to bring out the grain.
Pitch/Mod wheel plastic replaced with NOS wheels from Wine Country. The old ones crack over time and can slip on the pots.
All pots and switches cleaned.
Power cord replaced with a much nicer panel mounted 3 prong IEC power receptacle. Makes it much easier to remove from a stand (power cable included).
Inside and outside of synth completely cleaned.
Synth voices calibrated and checked over for tuning stability up and down the keyboard.
I own two Pro-One’s, and this one sounds the best of the two. It stays in tune up and down the keyboard. Pots have been cleaned but a few might be scratchy. I will retest before shipping. Not sure why this one has such a nice rounded, thick character to it but I prefer the sound over my other Pro One. Physical condition is very clean, near mint. The wood panels have some nicks and dents here and there, and small holes where knots are in the wood. Every knob cap is pristine. Every knob has been cleaned. A few scratches on the front panel. See photos for details. Only selling to fund another purchase. I am very picky about my gear, and have refurbished this to as close to perfect condition as possible.”

“Recently (about a month ago) refurbished by one of the best techs in SoCal (Montoya). It was also previously professionally maintained when I lived up north, about 4 years ago (Siegenthaler). Many 2600s are electronically flaky, and most of any of the keyboards are internally a wreck — but not this pairing. They are electronically in excellent shape, and also are in fairly good shape cosmetically.”

“Hi friends and gear junkies. We have an Oberheim Mateix 6R. Great 80’s rack synthesizer. Hard to beat the sound of an obi. Add a little reverb on top of these sounds and you’ve got 80’s perfection! Unit functions perfectly. Volume fader failed on the front and was removed. It hasn’t effected anything use wise for me. I’ve used it in my studio setting and never had any volume issues. These are starting to become hard to find.” Click here to search for synths on eBay

” For your consideration is a beautiful Steiner Parker Synthacon. The Synthacon has been recently serviced, and also has brand new keyboard bushings. If you’re looking at this then you probably know that the Synthacon has an extremely flexible modulation architecture and amazing sound due to it’s three oscillators and unique filter which does not cut out the low end on high resonance settings. You probably also know that these rarely come up for sale. ” Click here to search for synths on eBay

“I have a significant amount of time [both mine and others] and money invested in making this work.
I am at my limits of abilities to work on it. I can get a display to run but no sound because of the Proz-mismatch.
The PPG has the latest Virtual Music 8.3 ROMs. I am including a second set of ROMs as well.
I would refer to this below from Alexander from Virtual Music https://www.virtual-music.at/en/ppg-zone/#1
When this was shipped, the cards were not removed and wrapped so the damages are listed below.
• 2-3 broken mylar caps [the leads are hairline thin and very fragile]
• 1 broken 27.460mhz Crystal
• LCD cable pins are bent / broken and some will need replacement.
from Peter Forrest / Vemia
Details from the original listing[s]:We don’t know much about this. What we do know is it doesn’t work. It would appear that someone took a PPG Wave 2.3, removed the PCB’s, display, knobs and power supply and re-mounted them in a rack-style case. The front panel has a very professional looking blue and white transfer so whoever did this was quite serious about it. It also comes with the Wave’s original Mod Wheel assembly which can be connected to the internal motherboard. We tested it and this is what we found: It appears to boot up and display what looks like sensible information on the LCD (see photo). It accepts commands from the front panel, such as program or Midi channel changes, or for example pressing the Analog button brings up the current front panel knob-settings in the display and these can be altered in real time. It also appears to have valid data in memory judging by the parameters when the program number is changed. It can also be switched to emulate PPG Wave 2.2 mode. So far, so good. Now the bad news: plugging in a Midi keyboard produces no output, so either the Midi circuitry or the sound-generating section has a problem. Without having another Wave to test it with against, that’s as much as we know. Ideally this would suit a PPG enthusiast who has a working Wave 2.3 and can diagnose this one using an external Wave keyboard and card substitution. **SO SOLD AS IS!!** IEC mains connector with switchable 110/240V supply. ” Click here to search for synths on eBay

” This thing rips. Love it to pieces. It sounds beefy and has that classic buttery Moog filter to taste.
Would not be selling however I need to. I hope it finds a good home as it’s treated me well and I love this thing.

“It breaks my heart also to list this keyboard here on eBay along with the Jupiter 8 and the OB-Xa but I’m in the process of building my new studio and I have got to raise some funds. This Memorymoog Plus is in exceptional condition and all 6 Voices work flawlessly and tunes well. It has been serviced by the genius Kent Spong at KSR Synth Restorations (RL Music) and even he concluded that it even tunes better than LAMM Memorymoog – quite the statement. The whole thing had a full restoration and he went through everything top to bottom and I have to say it really is a Memorymoog that is a joy to play. As I said I wish I could keep it but money is very tight at the moment…
It is in superb condition: all faders, switches, buttons feel very good – not sure I have seen one this good!
– It has been stress-tested and all voices are rock solid and stable and perfectly calibrated (See photos of all 6 Voices working)
– Professionally restored and serviced
– No scratchy pots or wobbly sliders it really is in perfect condition and you are free to run the Test Mode to check for anything
– NO Tuning issues. All 18 Oscillators / 6Voices work and respond as they should
– 110V with included 300W High Quality Step Down Transformer”

“I believe this may be a prototype of the Moog Prodigy. I’m guessing age from no where later than 1979. Only 1 owner (who is deceased) until I acquired it. Telling details of being a factory prototype are the Prodigy logo with the Moog flag inside the Prodigy’s letter “O”, same as the Moog logo. On the back of the unit, in the upper left corner, there is a space for the unit’s model number (336), but wasn’t printed on the vinyl covering. The serial number is DD-07, which is nothing like I’ve ever seen on a Prodigy. Opening the keyboard up, I found a sticker stating “Property of D+D Eng.” “Ident 07″. Tested and plays & sounds great. No dirty pots. Great bass sound. Great cabinet wood. The only flaw is the wrinkled vinyl covering. This is one unique unit.”

“Here is my Roland Juno-106. It’s in mint condition, mainly because when I bought it in 94, it’s been in its case and kept in a closet. Rarely ever played. Which is a shame, I know. I’ll be posting more, and better pictures soon. This is only available for local pickup, sorry. However, I would consider driving somewhere to deliver it.
Update: I’ve had it turned on for about two hours now, it works perfectly except that it doesn’t have any of it’s original presets (the blue buttons) due to a dead memory battery. That will need replacing.”

“For sale is a Vintage Roland Vocoder. The model number is SVC-350.
This vocoder is in good/ decent overall pre-owned cosmetic condition especially considering it’s age. Signs of wear include surface scratches, scuffs and dirt/ dust residue from normal use and storage. Nothing too major. There is a mark on the top of it from what looks like an old sticker that was on this unit. A few rubber pieces missing from the frequency sliders.
Would benefit some from a good cleaning.
Powers up immediately.”
