Glwts 🙂👍

Cheers! It is a great synth and a super entry point into the endless money pit of synthesizers!! haha!

Moog Grandmother Semi-Modular Analog Synthesizer for sale. This is a great semi-modular analogue mono synth, steeped in classic Moog flavour. One of the last few products designed and made by Moog before they sold out and gave up on the employee owned business model... I've had this for a while, but just hasn't seen any use for the past year or so, so listing for sale as the funds would be useful elsewhere. it has a couple of very minor cosmetic marks from use (mainly on the bottom) but is in perfect working order - no issues whatsoever. Capable of big fat synth bass, scorching leads and other complete insanity as well. I do not have the original box, so collection is prefered. If someone wants this shipped and is willing to pay for the postage, please just ask and I will look into costs and boxes etc.. Looking for £650ono for this. Comes with a custom vinyl dust cover (£35 new), a good few short, medium and long patch cables (with little cable holder thing pictured - fireplace not inlcuded...) and I also have the printed manual.

Also pictured is a K&M mixer stand which I have used for the Grandmother for a while. These are £125+ new and the £650 listing DOES NOT include the stand. If you would like this stand as well, I'm happy to throw it in for an additional £80. I do have other uses in mind for the stand, however, so no obligation to buy this.

If you have any questions, let me know. Open to offers, but no trades please. I'm based in Smethwick/Birmingham for collection. Thanks for looking!

From the Moog site: Grandmother is a semi-modular analog synthesizer with a built-in arpeggiator, sequencer and spring reverb tank. Start playing immediately with “no patching required”, and then explore an infinite sonic playground with Grandmother’s reconfigurable front panel. Grandmother’s circuits, spring reverb, and spirit are inspired by the classic Moog Modular Synthesizers, making this instrument a powerful addition to a Mother-32, DFAM or any Eurorack modular system.

This is now with Bass Direct and will be listed for sale on their site etc. soon

Still open to offers on this, but if it's still here at the end of April I'm going to take it down to Bass Direct. If anyone was interested, but uncertain about buying via BC, send me a message and I'll happily let you know when it's with Bass Direct 👍

Cheers guys. Yes, the Xotic basses are really lovely. Only reason I'm selling really is due to not really using the 5-string much anymore and not quite gelling with it etc.. I seem to be the sort of person that either keeps something forever, or sells it on within 18 months! Haha!

Stephen - your 4-string Xotic is really nice as well. GLWTS on that!

Open to offers!

Happy Easter!

Thank you! It is a lovely bass - just not quite the one for me unfortunately.

What is the weight, please.

It's just over 4.5kg. Not the lightest, but very well balanced when playing.

I keep coming back to this... If I can sell a bass I currently have listed, I will have to give it a try!

Xotic XJ-1T 5-string for sale. It's a beautiful instrument, but having owned it for just over a year or so, I don't think it's quite the one for me... In perfect condition other than a very small scratch in the finish on the rear of the body, a little ding on the treble side of the headstock and some wear on the wooden bridge pickup cover from general use (all pictured below). All the specs can be seen in the photo below of the spec sheet from Xotic - only things that aren't listed are that it's 34" scale and the position dots on the fingerboard are luminlay glow-in-the-dark. The beautiful champagne gold sparkle finish doesn't quite come across in the photos either - it's rather lovely! I have the original gig bag and all the case bits, apart from the 2 allen keys that came with it. As usual, they have vanished into a tin never to be seen again, but are standard size. Currently strung for E-C tuning with DR Pure Blues. Looking for £1500 ono and based in Birmingham/Smethwick if anyone wants to come and give it a blast. I would consider shipping at the buyers expensive if insured etc., but would prefer collection or meeting up somewhere etc.. I do not have a hard case for shipping this, so collection definitely prefererable. Possibly interested in trades for a nice fretless 4/5 string or 24 fret 4-strings - try me (no 35" scale please)! If I've missed anything, do ask and I'll get back to you asap. Thanks for looking!

Keith McMillen SoftStep 2 for sale. In perfect condition - never used outside of the studio. Comes with long USB cable, but no original box. Comprehensive USB foot controller that it capable of a lot, lightweight and almost indestructible. Looking for £250 ono, can post in the UK for £7.50 and based in Birmingham/Smethwick for collection. Thanks for looking.

I bought an amp from Si and everything was very straightforward and pleasant. Many thanks!

Faderfox Micromodul EC4 Encoder USB MIDI Controller for sale. No box, but has original USB cable, 3.5mm to DIN midi adaptor and manual. Really versatile little MIDI controller designed to add hands-on control to software and hardware. 16 push-button rotary encoders plus function buttons and OLED display. Very light use at home and in perfect condition. Can ship in the UK for £5, otherwise collection near Smethwick/Birmingham. Any questions, just let me know. Cheers!

From Faderfox:

This all-rounder has 16 gridless push-encoders, 7 function buttons and a large OLED-display. Encoders are switchable to 16 groups that allow controlling a total of 256 control parameters per setup. The display shows the current values of all controls or editable encoder / group / setup names. Various kinds of MIDI commands are possible, like program change, pitch bend, aftertouch, NRPN, and control change in relative and absolute mode with different acceleration amounts. All these properties are easily and efficiently programmable on the device, allowing personalized customisation for each separate control.

The encoders can work as high resolution 14bit controllers too (NRPN, control change or pitch bend). This makes them suitable for sensitive parameters like resonating filter cutoffs, etc.

Use the internal 16 setups to save your individual settings. Backup and restore of all settings by SysEx dumps are possible too.

The factory settings are perfect to control music and video software products out of the box. Thus, any additional device programming isn't necessary for many applications.

The little box is also a great extension for your Ableton Live setup. There you can control all the continuous parameters like track volumes, rack macros, send amounts, and track pannings. A special control surface script for Ableton Live, including all necessary mappings, is enclosed in the package.

Working with this amazing power box will prove to you that it is a trustworthy, reliable, and invaluable asset to your productions.
