Chichiro and Doepfer Dark Energy Mk1

Chichiro inspects a Doepfer Dark Energy Mk1 synthesizer. Submitted by our friend Erik Ribeiro (@eriksuperlazy on Instagram).

The Doepfer Dark Energy was built around the Curtis CEM3394 “synth on a chip”. Curtis filter chips are well known and prolific in analog synthesizers, but this chip also includes a VCO and VCA – in short, a full synthesizer voice. It would definitely be fun to get hold of one of these, either packaged like the Dark Energy or on its own to experiment with.

Ringo and Waldorf Blofeld Soundscape

We also see a Line 6 delay pedal, Korg M50 and TR61 keyboard synthesizers, a Roland SP-404 SX sampler, and more.

Pinki with Analog Systems and more modular

Pinki shows off a cool Analog Systems modular, with not one but two Oberkorn 16-step sequencers. There are several other Eurorack modules from other manufacturers on the lower level, which we shall leave as an exercise to the reader.
