In this video I look into the history of MFB, a Berlin based manufacturer of musical instruments, and repairing a vintage jewel, the MFB-601 digital sequencer from 1983. Please subscribe and like and get notified about upcoming videos on my channel!

The MFB-601 is sequencing my Kosmo modular synthesizer. Two VCOs are going through a Steiner diode ladder VCF and a spring reverb tank. The MFB-601 is also triggering the MFB-501 drum machine to stay in sync.
