Sunday Synth Jam: MacBeth Studio Systems’ Ken MacBeth designs and builds the instruments that he’d like to play – which he demonstrates in this synth jam.
Along with a few of his official creation, he plays a frankensynth, based around an old ‘scrap SH101’.
Technical details below.

Here’s an experiment that I did. I replaced one octave of touch keys that I’m working on on an old scrap SH101…..it works perfectly!….my next shot is to give the scrapper SH101 a full three octaves as opposed to the two and a half octave keybed. If this all works- the touch keyboard I’m going to do as a stand-alone will have this built is seq! The sequencer is driving the up and coming Micromac-D synthesizer and I also played here the prototype of the experimental NEXUS 1 analogue touch synthesizer!
Very Trippy 😀
The Nexus is so creamy!
Hands down the best synth maker right now and a man who will be receiving a lot of my money. He needs to hurry up and release the micromac D.
He sure makes cool gear but my vote for best synth maker today goes to Olivier at Mutable Instruments.
man this dudes gear is supreme
i think he should release some albums at some point too
