For a bit of fun, and for a ScopeRise article in January, I am interested in any old bits of gear you have thats still usefull.

Possibly it would be hooked in with Scope but even if its not thats OK as well.

Post one pic and one or two sentences per piece of gear.

Example : You may have retrofitted a pre midi analog synth with MIDI and now running it from Scope. Or have some of those old notation editors/sequencers on an Atari ST. Or you may have gear which is now made redundant by Scope - that could be interesting as well.

Maybe you kept a Yamaha QX1 because MIDI on the PC sucks...or Akai MPC-4000 or something like this post .. http://forums.planetz.com/viewtopic.php?f=5&t=30174

I have one of these and at the moment the A16 and Xite1 stand on the top of it, will be a funny picture, over 40 years of music history stand together.
The B4B is plugged into the analog in of the Xite.

I use this (an italian valve mixer from 1959!) for warming up my synths mainly from Plugiator or Scope.
It's a beast for "revive" also all the native softsynths like i.e. Reaktor or FM7.
Every bass becomes very very very analog!
I think that's the best, lovely (and rare!) gear I own.

Yes, It seems a militar radio gear :D
After 53 years no noises from the pots! Only one valve replacement was required (with original new old stock from Philips).
