PLAYdifferently MODEL1 Mixer

Technically not a synth, but.... This all-analog beast of a DJ mixer- co-designed by Richie Hawtin- has per channel hipass and lowpass filters, SCULPT EQ, 2 auxiliary sends, and DRIVE on each channel, all of which sound great and let you carve out each mix. It is very hands on and "playable", with luxurious build quality. Typically used as a DJ mixer, it can be used with line level signals like synths and drum machines. This is the best portable all-analog mixer available at any price, and the only one in Denver for rent!

It is the ultimate "live hardware set" mixer. Check it out in my sets around Denver.

Roland Jupiter-6

This is my favorite Jupiter, and this is the third J-6 I've owned. This time, I think I'll keep it for the following reasons: It's got sharp resonance, multi-mode filters (including bandpass), and oscillators that allow various simultaneous shapes and can sync to each other. Its envelopes are fast and snappy and have the unique feature of key follow. It screams in the mix and sits just right. It automatically tunes in less than a second. You'll love it too, once you give it a shot.

I added the Tauntek EPROM for all sorts of modern MIDI goodness!

I SHOULD mod the filter for compensation, shouldn't I?

Korg ARP 2600 M

They finally did it: they shrunk one of the greatest synthesizers ever!

The Korg ARP 2600M is the latest incarnation of the all analog semi-modular synth, but at 60% the size of the original. The sound is stunning, and just like the vintage one I had. Only this time, it's conveniently desktop sized, and retains all of the analog features. You can patch the output to the preamp, and overdrive it at 10x, 100x or 1000x. It has both 4012 and 4072 filters, an analog ring modulator, built in speakers, and a real stereo spring reverb! Updated for modern use, it has MIDI, USB, and acts as a USB host, so you can plug in a USB keyboard or sequencer right to it for use without a computer. It works really well with Eurorack for hours of cross patching and limitless wonder. Yes, it does the R2-D2 sound.

Rentals are $100/day, $250/week, $500/month

Moog Minimoog Model D (Reissue)

Once you use this, you'll never make a bassline without it. This Model D is the genuine re-issue, a 1:1 re-do of the original from the 1970's (just like you!) Stable AF, rugged, with a dedicated LFO and with overload light! You'll love feeding back the external input into itself. The sound of a million records, so make it a million plus one!

Moog Matriarch

Moog Minimoog Model D (Reissue)

This is not a monosynth, but there's 4 oscillators. And two filters. Two analog delays.

This is not a monosynth, but it can be. But it can also play 4 notes at the same time.

Sequencer. Colors. Patch points. Stereo analog delay.

This is not a monosynth.

Paraphonic is your new favorite word, isn't it?

Moog Grandmother

Moog Minimoog Model D (Reissue)

Abstrakt Avalon Bassline

This is a monosynth, with 2 oscillators, a delicious/nasty filter, patch points, sequencer/arpeggiator, audio rate LFO, and a spring reverb that will make you cry/seem better than you actually are.

Dark edition, with custom wood sides.

Abstrakt Avalon Bassline

This is everything a TB-303 wishes it was: built like a tank, with tons of pattern memory, MIDI, DIN, and CV/Gate in and out. Its guts deliver the true sound of a 303 as most fanatics agree. You cannot buy these any more, but you can rent one! The RANDOM button will make ACID for free.

Most importantly, Daft Punk 'Da Funk' comes pre-programmed for you!

Norand Mono

Abstrakt Avalon Bassline

Korg ARP Odyssey FS

This 2-oscillator fun machine will inspire you to make patterns that you hadn't even thought were possible. You can change everything every single step of a sequence, and it will keep up. It's like a 101, 202, and a 303 were all smashed into a single box. It's a monster, and the ultimate live machine.

WATCH ME PROVE IT

Korg ARP Odyssey FS

Abstrakt Avalon Bassline

Korg ARP Odyssey FS

This is the white faced reissue version of one of the most powerful mono synths ever made. Korg updated it with all 3 filter variations of the originals, USB/MIDI, and drive circuitry. The sound is just how you remember, with all of the modern features. If you aren't man enough to play it by hand, get the SQ-1 with it

Cwejman S1 mkII

Polivoks Pro Reissue

This is the best made patchable semi-modular analog synth ever produced. Handmade by a meticulous synth fanatic (RIP), it cured my gear-lust for an ARP 2600. It is small, stays in tune, and allows routing from the knobs and patch points. Use it standalone or with your Euro. Say it with me: shway-man!

Polivoks Pro Reissue

Trust me: an original Polivoks, while pretty to look at, doesn't want you to touch it, let alone play music with it. This re-issue is stable while still being filthy and nasty and is a 1:1 remake with the original creator Vladimir Kuzmin's blessing. It's the real thing. Plus, it's Soviet!

Check out my demo!

Casio CZ-101

Polivoks Pro Reissue

Casio CZ-101

The Casio CZ-101 is the little tiny digital synth with Phase Modulation, which is a much friendlier FM engine in much cuter package. If you ever wanted to Strap One On and play Danger Zone, why deny yourself the pleasure? Now is the time!

Sequential Prophet-10

This synth was Dave Smiths (RIP) original polysynth, so he made an all analog reissue. You can try both the classic SSM and Curtis filter types of the vintage units (Rev 1, 2, and 3), and then add velocity, aftertouch, and MIDI/USB via a gorgeous Fatar keybed. The P10 now allows stacking of sounds, and 10 voice polyphony.

Prophet-10 sound demo

Moog One 16 voice

Sequential Prophet-10

With 16 voices of polyphony and 3 oscillators with waveshaping, 2 filters, and Eventide effects, this is now the best analog polysynth ever made. If you can't make something good with this, you might as well admit that you suck.

Now with version 1.5 to allow user tuning, CV/gate I/O, and much much more.

Sequential Prophet VS

Sequential Prophet-10

Sequential Prophet VS

The Prophet VS is unlike any other synth. Crisp 12 bit waveforms running through CEM filters yields sounds that analog waveforms cannot. Couple that with the best patch randomizer (ENTER+2) and you'll get lost for days.

Comes with Stereoping knob controller so you can actually edit your face off.

Yamaha DX7ii FD

Oberheim Two Voice Pro

Sequential Prophet VS

One synth I've never liked is the DX7. I hated the sound, hated the membrane switches, and hated the early brownish color. I've probably bought and sold ten of these over the years, but never a DX7 ii FD. It has better capability-- like dual mode for huge stereo-- and greatly improved FM engine. It also has more banks, a bigger screen, and is 10lbs lighter. Of course, having real tactile switches helps make you want to try to program it, but that's impossible. So I added a Cartridge and an HxC drive in place of the floppy so that I could have access to all 20,000 DX7 patches at a push-able button away.

Oberheim Two Voice Pro

Tom Oberheim said this was his favorite synth. You might say that too, because it's two SEM's strapped together with a 16-step sequencer, a velocity sensitive keyboard, and patch points for your modular system. Everything that comes out of it is rich and inspiring and sounds enormous. One of only about 250 in existence, and I've owned 4 of those!

Roland System-8

Oberheim Two Voice Pro

Want a Juno-106, Jupiter-8, Jupiter-4, JX-3P, Juno-60, and SH-101? Want FM plus noise oscillators that you can run through any classic Roland filter? This is it! Roland didn't just make a ROMpler, this is mathematical component modelling of analog circuitry called ACB. With wood/metal sides and white LED's, even experts say the models like the Jupiter-8 are indistinguishable from the originals.

Don't believe me just watch!

Jupiter-8 vs System-8

Rhodes Electronic Piano

AKA Model 3363 this is a synthesized Rhodes with 4 total sounds including Piano, Vibes, Elec Piano, and Harpsichord-- two of which are actually usable. The Piano and Rhodes sounds are great for live work, and the real wood keys feel great and allow real expressive playing. Heavy, stylish, and worth it.

Rhodes 73 mk1

Rhodes Electronic Piano

TECHNICALLY NOT A SYNTH! But of all the Rhodes I've owned and played, this is the one that I love the best. This vintage has the pedestal bump keys so they are light and crisp feeling, and an absolute dream to play. It's minty clean and fresh, has been upgraded with the Retro Flyer preamp installed ((STEREO)), and is only 120lbs! Comes with the legs, crossbars, and sustain pedal. The Tolex is clean, and I got stands for the top so you can lay a synth on it, or one of the many adoring ladies once they hear you play this.

Roland SH-101

Dave Smith Pro-2

(with Tubbutec mod) I know, I know. There are a million plugins out there that mimic this, and the Behringer MS-1 is better built. But only the SH-101 holds the place as my first analog synth, as in 1990, when your parents were young. And be inspired by the worlds best step sequencer, clocking along to Sample & Hold.

Dave Smith Pro-2

What would happen if you took a 4 digital oscillator synth that can do paraphonic, routed through Prophet-6 and Oberheim SEM analog filters with 4 delays, analog distortion, and multiple step sequencers with multiple channels? I don't know, rent this and find out!

MFB Dominion I

Dave Smith Pro-2

Oberheim Xpander

Shockingly good German analog synth with 3 oscillators (paraphonic), 11 filters, Fatar keybed, sequencer and arpeggiator, because I heard you sold your turntables and bought an arpeggiator to make a Yaz record.

Oberheim Xpander

Only rent this synth if you want to be Vince Clarke, Trent Reznor, Nitzer Ebb, Flood, and every band you ever listened to growing up. 6 voice poly, 5 LFO's, 5 envelope generators, 12 filters, and 100% menu diving. You know you wanna try modulating everything with everything!

672 HP Eurorack

Oberheim Xpander

672 HP Eurorack

Only rent this if you have a Tinder date coming up and you want to impress. Not with music, but with a Eurorack that puts your dates' exes to shame. You can even get some patch cables to look like you know WTF is happening.

Isla S2400

Oberheim Xpander

672 HP Eurorack

This new drum machine is a remake of the E-mu SP1200, but done with all the modern equivalents and features. It has aliasing, internal analog resampling and digital filters, and will remind you of growing up and how hard sampling and making beats used to be.

Rozzbox One V2

Perhaps the most rare and yet sought after synth ever. This is a 5 voice polyphonic synth with digital waveforms into a digital filter and/or a transistor filter AND a tube filter. It sounds like nothing else.

It is the ultimate synthesizer snob piece. Find out why!

Nord Modular

Rozzbox One V2

Little red keyboard that you patch with Windows and then assign to the physical knobs. Every time you patch something together, you'll make something worth keeping. You can make sounds your modular will not, because your modular isn't red.

Also available: Nord G2 engine

Nord Grand

Rozzbox One V2

Access Virus TI2 Polar

The Nord Grand has the best action I've ever felt--- made by Kawai-- coupled with 5 of the best sampled pianos I've ever heard. It feels like the hammers are really hitting the strings. On top of that, you also get multiple Rhodes, Wurlitzers, electric pianos, and sourced Mellotron and Chamberlin samples. You can even load your own samples, like bossa nova loops, orchestra hits, or dog whistles.

Access Virus TI2 Polar

This is the most complete Virtual Analog synthesizer ever made. It does standard "analog subtractive" but also does wavetable, FM, and supports a complete effects section per channel. About 120 voices of polyphony. You could be happy with just this synth alone... And RANDOMIZER... Its so good, it sounds like all the plugins that emulate it!

Neumann U67

Access Virus TI2 Polar

Neumann U67

This tube microphone is widely regarded as Neumann's masterpiece, great at everything. At the top of the mountain of great mics for vocals, this is the crown jewel. I even tracked down a NOS Telefunken EF86 tube for it. It may be the only one you ever see. Rent it and find out what all the fuss is about.
