๐Ÿ™‹๐Ÿปโ€โ™‚๏ธ Welcome to SynthFreak!

Hey and thank you for visiting my shop and for your interest in this synthesizer! Every instrument in my shop comes from my private collection and is treated with the highest level of care. My mission is simple: you receive a vintage instrument that performs flawlessly, not a "fixer-upper."

Before any item is listed, it undergoes a rigorous, multi-stage inspection by our technician. I know my prices reflect a premium compared to "as-is" listings, but this is a deliberate choice. When you buy from me, you are investing in a fully verified, professionally serviced, and risk-free collectorโ€™s item that is ready for the studio the moment you plug it in. You avoid the hidden repair bills and frustration that often accompany cheaper, unverified gear.

๐Ÿ’Ž Why You Invest in Quality

My pricing directly reflects the extensive time, technical expertise, and premium materials required to deliver an investment-grade instrument. Here is exactly what is included in your purchase:

  • ๐Ÿ›ก๏ธ Double Technical Verification: Every instrument undergoes a comprehensive checkup before being listed. To guarantee perfection, the entire unit is tested again right before it is packed. Any component replacement, calibration, or display upgrade is handled by specialists so you receive a turn-key, flawless instrument.
  • ๐Ÿ“ฆ Premium Custom Packaging: Vintage electronics are fragile and irreplaceable. To ensure 100% safety during international transit, we do not use standard shipping methods. We spend hours custom-building heavy-duty, multi-layered packaging or bespoke wooden crates. This professional-grade preparation guarantees that your investment arrives in the exact condition described.
  • ๐Ÿš€ Worldwide Fastest FREE Shipping: I believe in delivering excellence to your doorstep without extra costs. Every purchase includes expedited, fully insured worldwide shipping at no additional charge, ensuring your instrument arrives as quickly and safely as possible.
  • โšก Power & Global Connectivity: My instruments are configured for EU 230V. If requested, I can perform a free internal voltage conversion where technically possible. If not, I recommend a high-quality external step-up transformer (approx. $50). This is the preferred, risk-free solution for 90% of my international customers, allowing you to power multiple EU-spec devices simultaneously without compromise.
  • ๐Ÿ“‘ Customs & Import Optimization: International shipping often brings unexpected financial burdens. Our dedicated logistics team reviews each shipment individually to prepare customs declarations strategically. This compliant, professional approach helps minimize or entirely avoid unnecessary import fees and taxes for you.
  • โœ… Transparency & Peace of Mind: I document the entire process and prioritize full professional transparency. You avoid the hidden risks, dirty interiors, and immediate repair costs that often come with cheaper 'as-is' listings from private sellers.

Enjoy reading the description.

๐ŸŽนInformation about the item for sale

I am selling a legend among the Synthesizers. The Farfisa Syntorechstra 4, is in a very good condition and can be used immediately. Full checked and full working.. it is really a very well-preserved device! Potentiometer and contacts have been cleaned. It has been extensively tested and everything works perfectly! Please note that I am only selling the device without accessories. No bags, cases, stands, Manuals, Speakers or anything else. Only the musical instrument including power cable is supplied.

โš™๏ธSpecs

The Syntorchestra 4 is equipped with a 49-key keyboard and covers a total of four octaves. It has preset sounds, which can be selected with push buttons on the front below the keyboard and are divided into two sections. Red LEDs in the push buttons indicate whether a function is activated. These sections can be individually muted (Cancel pushbuttons). There are six polyphonic voices (piano, honky tonk piano, harpsichord, strings, and generic brass/brass reed/woodwind) and eight monophonic voices (trombone, trumpet, saxophone, clarinet, oboe, piccolo, fiddle, and electric bass) selectable become. A monophonic and a polyphonic voice can be combined. As usual with string keyboards of the 1970s, these are just simple sound imitations that are intended to represent the sound spectrum of the real model. The monophonic section can be steplessly detuned in relation to the polyphonic section using a knob on the front of the instrument. Next to it is also the master pitch. The M.A.R. function disables the polyphonic section for the highest note played to prevent unwanted tones when playing the mono section as a lead. The top panel Mono Priority toggle switch controls whether, when a chord is played in the polyphonic section, the corresponding mono section sound is played on the lowest or highest note of the chord.

The instrument has, among other things, a continuously adjustable portamento for the sound design. The cutoff (called brilliance here) of the low-pass filter for the polyphonic and monophonic sections can be controlled individually. The resonance (emphasis) of the filter can also be adjusted for the monophonic section. The envelope generator is limited to the two stages attack and decay and is only available for the monophonic section by default. However, the sustain can also be set individually for the strings preset of the poly section. In addition, a simple pitch bender is installed to the left of the keyboard. The LFO is used for the vibrato effect of the mono section and can also be used to modulate the low-pass filters. Only one fixed vibrato effect is available for the polyphonic section. The speed is continuously adjustable. With the Poly In Mono function, the audio signal of the polyphonic section can be integrated into the signal chain of the mono section, allowing the use of the modulation effects and the envelope generator. However, the separation into two output sockets can then no longer be used.
