I'm SELL:  a synthesizer (elektronika em-25)

  • REALY COOL CONDITIONS!  DON'T WARRY!
The EM-25 is a polyphonic synth specialising in strings, organ and brass. Like other such instruments, it was of the 'divide-down' variety to give a totally polyphonic generator through a single filter, amp and envelope.
The strings section had mixable contrabass, cello and violins with variable attack and decay and the obligatory chorus unit for the rich ensemble effect.
The organ offered variable footages at 16', 8', 4' and 2' with variable attack and decay whilst the brass section offered trombone and trumpet. Of course, none of these sounds were 'realistic' but there were plenty of controls and facilities to coax some sonic mileage out of this trio of sounds.
There was an LFO that could be used to sweep the apparently fiercely resonant, self-oscillating filter and all the sections could be mixed and balanced - even split across the keyboard range - and so, in that respect, the EM-25 was not unlike the Moog Opus, Korg Trident and other such keyboards. To the left was a performance section with a pitchbend lever that appears to have been lifted directly from Roland's 'bender' design!
................
So that you can have the idea of what this synth was built to do, I have had a go at translating the writing on the panel from the Russian:
Panel (above keyboard):
Cеть - On/off switch Стрингс - Strings Aтака - Attack Спад - Decay Орган - Organ Селектор - Select switch Стрингс - Strings (the sliders underneath control the string section register, contrabass, cello and violins) Орган - Organ (again, sliders control the register) Духовые - Brass Вибрато - Vibrato Духовые - Brass Скор задерж - Fast sustain(or delay) Модулятор - Modulator Огибающая - envelope Фильтер - Filter Мод Срез Акц - (These are abreviations for filter parameters) Modulation Cut-off Accent  
Writing left of the keyboard:
Транспозер  - Transpose Vремя – Time Инт – Abbreviated for ‘Interval’ Громкость  - Volume Okтава – Оctave Транспозер  - Transpose
The synthesizer  operates on 220 Volts. The United States need a transformer for 110-Volt ( not included)

 Shipping in USA and Canada -$200 (usps post service) and $150 shipping in Europe (by fly)

 Working condition is excellent, fully working and fully checked. Cosmetic condition is not mint, but clean for such old vintage gear. There are really some scratches on metal panel, but generally it looks clean. WHITE, CLEAN KEYS!!! Please look ACTUAL pictures below.

All pots and switches were serviced and cleaned before this auction and are without noise on moving. New capacitors replaced for ALL section!

VERY WARM FAT STRINGS, SMOOTH PADS AND ORCHESTRAL, SYNTHETIC BRASS AND LEADS.
