Sorry - I sold all I had.

If there's enough interest, I can do another run of boards.

More than likely it is.  The mod was originally from Musitronics in Germany;  it was distributed in the states by Angel City -- people began calling it the angel city mod.  Angel City is gone;  musitronics is still around.

What does this mod consist of. I've never seen any type of
documetation on it. Is it an eeprom with new firmware for the DW800 or
is there something more to it?

Re: Wanted: Angel City Mod (all of the info that you could need!!)

2006-03-28 by robert andrew scott

This message is for anyone who is curious about the Angel City /
Musitronics "DW Turbo" expansion.

It adds some significant functionality to the synthesizer-
1. The ability to program layers / splits with two patches. The mix
between the two patches can be altered, as can their transposition,
relative detuning, and split point.

2. The upgrade also allows for sending and receiving data on two midi
channels (as per the split).

3. The upgrade also expands the synth's memory to 8 (!!) internal
banks.

4. A feature has been included to allow for a quick comparison
between an edited patch's sound and its original sound.

5. Lastly, the Turbo board also adds a new modulation waveform. A
white noise S/H (random) waveform which sounds especially neat when
controlling the filter cutoff. . Very, very cool.


Years ago I uploaded the owner's manual to this group's "files"
section. Here's a direct link to the scanned document in .ZIP format-

g8KPqHhPRpigcG8r6P_tUrzlunYpvS6HohXgSVKU_aF/dwturbo%20manual.zip


I've also uploaded a JPG image which shows the added DWTurbo
parameters-

OWsetuvGuOZAlZjMYd5HfG8hlvPAnugmK-EdTi5bZjS/AngelCitySticker.jpg


I bought the board from a German company called "Musitronics" perhaps
three or four years ago. . and it appears that the board is still
available. I payed $75 for it then.

Here is their product page-

http://www.musitronics.de/german/produkte/dw8000_ex.html


And here's an english translation-

2522www.musitronics.de/german/produkte/dw8000_ex.html%2522%26hl%3Den%
26lr%3D


My only uncertainty about this upgrade was with the additional patch
banks. You obviously don't have to use this feature, but if you do-
be sure to read the instructions on saving and accessing the banks. I
once lost two banks of sounds in my haste. .

The board, by the way, was very easy to install. Be sure to handle
the original board with care and keep it in an electrostatic bag, in
case you ever decide to revert to it, sell the synth, etc..


In response to some emails, I'd like to mention that I do plan on (re)
building my DW8000 information page. It should be up on katreil.com
sometime in the next month..

By the way, does anyone know what other synths use the same keys as
the Minikorg 700s (K2) ?

It's a board that plugs into the old EPROM socket;   it contains a new EPROM, new RAM, a backup battery for the RAM, and some circuitry to handle all of it.
As for what it does, see Robert Andrew Scott's post for details (or check out the user manual in the files section).

If I do another run, it will be $60 plus shipping.
This gives me a profit of about $5 (assuming my labor is valued at about 50 cents an hour).
Or, you could order from Musetronics....

Angel City Mod

2006-03-30 by Eirikur Hallgrimsson

Speaking of this... I have it in one of my DW-8000s. Everyone always
refers to it as providing layering capability, but I don't see that in
the manual, and when I have tried to make it happen, I didn't succeed.
Is this a case of people who haven't used it making up what should be
logical functionality, but actually isn't there?

Eirikur

Re: [DW8000] Angel City Mod

Read the manual again.  Parameter 36 has a layer mode;  if you define your A & B zones correctly, both sounds will play simultaneously over the whole keyboard.

I'd be interested, depending on the price...

Re: [DW8000] Re: Wanted: Angel City Mod

2006-04-11 by David Panseri

I'm interested, but I have a few questions:

a) Is there a way to check to see if your DW8000 has the mod without
opening it up?

b) Does it come as a kit or pre-assembled? If you're doing the
assembly I could save you some time by doing mine myself. I'm pretty
handy with a soldering iron.

Thanks,
Dave
