Black Moog-style modular synth with orange DR sticker
Description
I lost my black Moog-style modular synth yesterday around 3pm outside the Orpheum Theatre on South Main Street, downtown Memphis. It’s a compact Eurorack-style case in matte black with a few light scratches on the corners, and there’s a bright orange sticker with my initials 'DR' on the back panel. A handful of patch cables—red and yellow—are still plugged in, and there’s a small dent on the top left corner from a gig mishap. This instrument means a lot to me—it was a gift from my mentor and helps fund my little music projects. If anyone found it, please email me at [email protected]; I’d be eternally grateful.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
