“This is my Future Retro XS, serial number FRXS121. I got this directly from Jered (the owner of Future Retro)…very nice guy. But pretty quickly realized it doesn’t really suit me as a guitarist/keyboardist. Excellent condition, barely used! Includes AC adapter, rack ears, and manual.” Link
“Perfect condition, clean cherry side panels and not a scratch to be found. Just checked out and all systems are go. This is a fat analog synth with lots of character. You can program raw to smooth diverse wave forms. Excellent for studio use, sampling or for live play. This unit was studio use only and kept in mint condition. Comes with original manual and power supply. Manual is in excellent condition as well. ” Link
“Best known as a Roland TB-303 Bassline “clone” but much more. Produces those classic acid sounds you may be looking for. All analogue circuitry, apart from additional on-board digital effects.
Very novel sequencing approach with a circular design — essentially the TB-303s sequencer more representing a loop. Sequence remix options give you a few different flavors of the same programmed sequence with just a flip of a switch.
1V/octave CV out & gate out for hooking up to your modular synth or other analogue gear. CV in modulates the filter. The Revolution’s filter has a self-oscillating resonator so you can get those dirty acid sounds and go even further with overdrive. Also has MIDI in/out/thru and DIN-out for use as a master or slave with TB-303s and TR-808s drum machines and such.
The internal battery was factory replaced for longer life at some point in its history.” Link
” Manchmal muss man weitergehen. Ich trenne mich von meinem Future Retro XS, da ich das Gefühl habe ihn soundmäßig ausgereizt zu haben (was eine Weile gedauert hat).
Der Zustand des Geräts ist demnach gebraucht, aber es hat keine signifikanten optischen Gebrauchspuren, zwei kleinere Kratzer an der vorderen Kante habe ich gefunden. Technisch funktioniert es wie am ersten Tag.
Das Gerät funktioniert mit Midi sowie CV. Man kann eigentlich jeden Parameter über CV modulieren, die Möglichkeiten zum Sounddesign sind sehr groß und der Klang ist ziemlich klar. Für genaue technische Details verweise ich auf www.future-retro.com …Google gibt außerdem eine ganze Reihe an nützlichen Reviews und Youtube Videos her.

“Masterpiece – Collectors item! Barely used! Impeccable condition!!! Like brand new! This is a TB303 on steroids pretty much.
Comes with hard plastic carrying case, original owners manual, original invoice, and signed explanatory letter from the manufacturer himself. You won’t find another in this condition! ” Link
“futureretro revolution, tb-303 ähnlicher klang, top sequenzer. mit holz an den seiten. es wurden nur die ersten 300 von 1200 stück in dieser variante gebaut (serial 0182). diese maschine wird von futureretro nicht mehr produziert.das gerät befindet sich in einem gebrauchten aber sehr guten zustand. im laufe der zeit wurde einmal die backup batterie und der resonance poti getauscht (durchgeführt von schneiders buero berlin). ” Link
” For auction is an excellent condition Future Retro XS semi-modular analog synthesizer. Included is the original product manual and power cable. The synthesizer is in perfect working order and sounds fantastic. Being that this is a semi-modular synth, you can interface it with other CV-compatible modular pieces — albiet the XS uses 1/4″ jacks, similar to the Korg MS-20.
The XS is an underrated classic, capable of very warm and soft tones in addition to being very aggressive if you want it to be. For whatever reason, the XS has a reputation for being “too aggressive”, which is usually because first-timers to the synth don’t realize that each oscillator can overdrive in the mixer section if you turn the knobs to 100%. Also, the filter is a 2-pole multimode, so there is definitely a rawness to the sound that is a bit surprising for people coming from software. I find it to be a weird mix between an SH-101 and an MS-20, depending on how you use the envelopes and resonance.
This is a great first synth for those looking to get into modular stuff, too. If you don’t like the filter, feed the oscillators into another modular and back into the XS. The CV options are great on this thing, and very fun to experiment with.” Link
“In limited edition groovy green, this is a great, compact sequencer which can also double as a MIDI-to-CV converter. Includes MIDI in/out/through, and CVs for pitch, gate and accent. Easy to program, plenty of pattern storage and song storage, and the real jewel is the remix function which gives you hundreds of variations on any pattern on the sequencer. Comes with a UK power supply (the kettle lead is easily swappable) in the original box, with the original manual. ” Link
“Legendary Future Retro Unit in superb condition.
Comes with power supply and copy(copy)of the manual.
One of the Best Step TB styles sequencers on the market today with an Analogue TB clone and CV Midi Converters to top it all off.
Has also one of the best writers block feature with a random mode generator of your current sequence that might just come up trumps at the push of a button.
Selling as I bought it for the sequencer and have bought a 3 way step sequencer so its redundant in my setup.
great sound and condition – if youre after one of these you wont be disappointed!” Link

“If you are reading this chances are you know what the Revolution is. However, this model is special as ONLY 9 Units Were Ever Made In The UV Orange Finish. This is number 6 of the 9 made, it is signed and numbered on the back.
While it is a “collector’s” piece it saw normal studio (smoke free) use. Since I am in the US and this model was from the UK I have multiple convertors for the plug that came with the unit, I will include these when shipping along with the manual.
From Future Retro Website http://www.future-retro.com/history.html
“In 2006, we did a very limited production run of what we called the SE units in both a silver and UV orange finish. In addition to the obvious color changes, these were the first Revolution units to have the black aluminum end pieces. They also featured unique combinations of colored key caps and included one modification that provided a logical accent gate output on the ring connector of the gate output jack. Each unit was also hand-signed and numbered. The UV orange SE units were all sold exclusively through Analogue Addiction in the UK. Only nine of these units were made.
These units were very bright in color and glowed just as bright under blacklight. These units shipped with UV red key caps that would glow orange under blacklight as well.” “ Link
