“Two great full ADSR envelopes with the absolutely sweetest sounding integrated VCA. In full disclosure, I owned this module for about one week before I accidentally plugged it in incorrectly which partially impacted one of the envelopes and one of the knobs. The module was professionally repaired, recalibrated and tested and is now back like new. Physically, it’s mint! Initially I wasn’t sure how long it would take to get it repaired so I bought a second one (and had a custom modification added) so I no longer need the original. The repaired module functions just as it did when I first got it, so this is a chance to get one of these for a fraction of the price! MSRP for this module is $699.” Link

“MACBETH M5N – THE LEGEND
Biete legendären Macbeth M5N in einwandfreiem Zustand.
Vielleicht die letzte Chance einen dieser einzigartigen Modularsynthesizer zu ergattern.(nur ca. 100 Stück wurden gebaut!)
Der Sound ist, was ich ” volle analoge Klanggewalt ” nenne!
Nicht zu vergleichen mit Doepfer und anderen modernen Modularsystemen.Sogar ein ARP 2600 kommt klanglich und funktional nicht an den M5N ran!
Bei dem Modell handelt es sich um den zweiten, je gebauten M5N, den ersten hat Mr.Macbeth persönlich behalten,
dieser M5N war also der erste verkaufte M5N (SN:x0002)
Der letzte Macbeth M5N ist im Juli letzten Jahres für 5890 euro weggegangen!
Wollte Ihn eigentlich gegen einen Jupiter 8 oder andere Analoge tauschen, nun ist er hier gelandet…
Versand ist möglich, dank der Grösse empfehle ich jedoch Abholung.Eine Besichtigung ist auch möglich!
Der Artikel wurde neu eingestellt, da er nur über Ebay Deutschland lief, und mehrere ausländische Bieter angefragt haben, ob Sie mitbieten dürfen!” Link

“Good cosmetic condition. Unit works and sounds great. Two of the knobs in the mixer section, the master volume and oscillator 3 volume/mod, are a little scratchy.” Link

“Superb Macbeth M5N Semi Modular Synth.
Hand built by Ken Macbeth – one of the last two ever made!!
White front panel, with orange LEDs
Technical and performance details too great to go into here, but loads of information available online.
In absolutely perfect condition, only used in a smoke-free studio.

“This is a very rare synth designed and hand built by Macbeth Studio Systems. I’m sure you know already but just in case it’s a rack-mountable all analogue design, 3 oscillator synth with an extremely fat 24db Moog style ladder filter and integrated midi control including filter, velocity and aftertouch. Basically it’s a modern Minimoog with quite a few extra features..
This thing sounds seriously amazing. The oscillators (based on those of the Minimoog) have real balls and a wonderful warm vintage character, the envelopes are extremely snappy and the filter is warm, wide and liquid with serious bite. Anything you put through the external audio in sounds amazing.
It’s modelled after the Mini and much of the sound path and layout is the same. In addition precision vernier dials ensure you can tune the three oscillators very accurately. There are also quite a few more modulation destinations than the original and a built in Kenton Pro Solo provides excellent midi control. The result is basically a sound designer’s dream. This Synth also produces the fattest, deepest bass I’ve ever heard.
One of only around 150 made this Synth is seriously rare. It was personally taken up to the latest production specs (their were two versions/runs) but the designer Ken Macbeth in 2004. It’s in perfect working and near mint condition. The oscillators stay in tune perfectly and there’s no need to calibrate it after every session. This is basically the best way of getting fat, vintage sounds without all the maintenance hassles. ” Link

“Up for sale is my Macbeth M5, quite a monstrous analog semi-modular synthesizer! I’ve decided to sell this because I want to change up my synthesizer set-up.

“Long out of production Macbeth M3X in excellent cosmetic and perfect functional condition. Serial #1065. Includes power cable.
The phillips screws on the front panel have been replaced with matte hex screw heads, which are more durable and look far more attractive.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.
“Macbeth Dual Oscilator 3RU Eurorack module
If you have done any research on modular synths you will know that this one of the top dual osc moduals.
I was going to build a modular synth but now cant afford it, so it hasn’t been tested .
This thing has alot going for it, the way this whole package is put together just sold it to me.
Having the osc sync setup how it is, built in ring mod (which sounds lovely), BIG 10 turn pots, noise gen, cross mod, 6 waveforms, great PWM sound and octave selection just made me feel all moogy inside.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.

“Massive analog synth from MacBeth – limited production, now discontinued. We are the original owner and only have used it carefully in our smoke-free studio. The only reason why we are selling it is because we moved and now no longer have the space for it. In EXC condition with a few light scratches on the top and back, too imperceptible even to photograph. Slider caps replaced on LFO2 rate and VCO1 LFO1. Rubber feet on bottom removed because they caused instability. ” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.
“This is for the MACBETH “BACKEND” FILTER (Eurorack)
This is rare on ebay, as in I’ve never seen one on here.
Aside from being a filter this module also has a mixer, filter envelope, amp envelope, manual gate, LOTS of cv options, a main output as well as 4 separate outputs for each ‘slope’ of filter, tracking and more. Is it expensive? Sure… but it replaces or adds a lot to your system.
A special note about the filter. It’s SMOOOOOTH as all hell. This is not your mama’s filter. The only reason I’m selling it is because I’m getting out of Eurorack.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.
“This is for the AMAZING Macbeth X-Series Dual Oscillator.
This is for a EURORACK MODULAR SYNTHESIZER.
You can get lots of information from the analoguehaven webiste.
New it costs $1400.
It really is an wonder piece and is quite rare on ebay, as in I’ve never seen one one here before. (Same goes for the Backend filter that I’m also selling).
The only reason I’m selling it is that I’m getting out of Eurorack. I’m the first owner. There is one flaw. The rectangle output on osc1 won’t output. It’s only 1 of 12 outputs and I’ve never missed it. I’ve been in contact with Ken Macbeth and he is sure is just a lose solder joint and is easily touched up by a tech. I rarely have use for rectangle waves coming from both oscillators, though so I’ve never missed it. ” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.

“I’m reluctantly selling my Macbeth Studio Systems M3X analogue monosynth.
Had this for 6 years now & it’s a classic synth from designer Ken McBeth, based on the Minimoog architecture & sound but can do so much more.
Aftertouch & velocity sensitive with internal MIDI from Kenton but can also be controlled by CV/S-Trig and has Filer CV input also.
External input also for sending other audio to the filter for processing…
3 full range analog oscillators & each can be routed to one of four destinations, allowing for plenty of crazy FM wierdness as well as filter modulation…
Using the MIDI & the Filter CVin combined you can make the Amplifier envelope respond to velocity via onboard Aux controller for the Kenton, whilst using the Filter CV to allow response of the filter to aftertouch, velocity or another MIDI CC…
These synths are rare with possibly only 150 or so ever made… That’s hand made too. Mine is serial number 00XX. (for the winning bidder only)
Only selling as I have another Macbeth synth so will not be without “the sound” in any case & need funds now for another project.
Synth has been racked in a non-smoking studio & is in excellent condition. The MIDI in socket is a little loose though so will tighten that up for the sale.
Complete with a draft copy of the manual which gives full details on the Kenton unit built-in, as that does need configuring for your set-up, tho as you can see in the pictures the parameters are given on the bottom of the faceplate itself for an easy reminder.” Auction ended.
