Turn your Mono into Poly and much much more.
The Poly-Box is a great piece of kit and far ahead of its time. It's a keyboard controller for turning your analog synthesiser, even though its monophonic, into wonderous polyphony by programmable chord memory presets. Designed for use via CV/Gate with other EML synths but can actually be used with any synthesiser at all…The fun really starts when you use this to turn your monophonic Modular Synth into a crazy polyphonic modular demon. This thing is rare, only around 150 of them were ever made, much less than half that number were the deluxe orange and wood ones like this.
Here is how EML described it: "Poly-Box is a pitch following variable chord generator controlled by your synthesizer and Poly-Box's own keyboard with built-in memory. Poly-Box takes a single pitch from your synthesizer and creates two banks of pitch sources. Each pitch bank contains 13 simultaneously available pitch sources at precise semitone intervals - covering an entire chromatic octave. The pitch banks may be in the same or different octaves, and can cover the range from one above to three octaves below the synthesizer oscillator."
Demo video coming soon.
It is a 110v unit and a step-down transformer is required for use in UK/EU/AU. Using a high quality transformer is recommended as cheap generic Chinese transformers may damage your machine.
Shipping quotes just a guide for courier service, regular post will be cheaper.
