Rare! Classic E-MU 9090 Orbit V2 The Dance Planet Synth Sound Module Synthesizer

E-MU Orbit 9090 V2

Listing Includes:

1x E-MU ORBIT Rack Unit

1x Power Cable

 This listing is for an E-MU Orbit 9090 V2. I've had her all her life and it's a great sounding machine! Perfect for electronic music and plenty of classic sounds as well as gems you can mix into your music. It's hard to say just how great these E-MU gear pieces are because even years later they still hold their own in the studio. You really have to play them and see how much fun they are and easy to jump into. Very warm and very high quality sounds from these units. I recall going into Guitar Center years ago and sitting down in their Keyboard room and just playing with the E-MU synths in the store for hours. Since they were sold out at the time I had to wait to get my hands on one and this was it.

The Orbit comes exactly as shown and includes the power cable. Smoke free studio and of course she's been racked and taken care of since the day I brought her home.

Very cool synth for someone looking to make some amazing music!

This has the usual 1/4 inch Inputs and Outs and the Midi's of course. There's also a foot switch input.

The Orbit is one of EM-U's earlier rack modules where they all came with a metal face plate before the later modules that feature plastic face plates.

Info from Vintagesynth:

"The Orbit was first in E-mu's new line of dance modules. This is strictly engineered for the techno artist. It has 8 MB of samples of all the great vintage analog sounds plus many familiar and typical sounds used in house, hip hop, trance, and techno.

It includes an essential digital VCF-like filter that is (on many presets) usually controlled from the modulation wheel on your keyboard controller! It's great for filling tracks with lush sweeping pads, or trancing along a 303 bassline pattern and filtering away. It is a beautiful golden single-space rack unit with a big easy to read LCD. Its sounds are, well they're digital so they are a little harsh and 'tinny' but add a little 'verb and some delay and it sounds damn good! It is already being used by lots of techno artists around the world including Todd Terry, Roni Size, ATB, and Orbital."
