I offer here for sale very rare vintage Analog Modular synthesizer - EMS Synthi-E including rare EMS Keyboard. This incredible analog device from non-smoking studio. Synth in Very good working condition. We include AC power adapter 220 volts ( probably it is not original adapter and we can not guarantee that it is completely suitable for this device, but at least the synthesizer worked ok) If you have any further questions - ask me please, befor you buy.
The Synthi E is an educational form of the Synthi that had a complete teaching course built around it for use in colleges and schools. It was intended as a teaching aid into the principles of sound synthesis and electronic music. Small, housed in a brief-case and battery powered, the Synthi E was perfect for the student or teacher on the go! Simple as it may appear, it actually has some sophistiated features:
Input Amplifier with low (Microphone) and high (line) level inputs. Envelope Follower providing a voltage proportional to the amplitude of the input. Oscillator 1 with true exponential voltage control of frequency and three simultaneous output waveforms (sine, triangle and voltage controlled pulse). Oscillator 2 for slow control voltages such as glissando or vibrato. Filter/Oscillator 3 with v.c. low, high and band pass filter or pure sine wave. Modulator for envelope shaping or ring modulation. Noise Generator. Trapezoid Generator for multiple simultaneous trapezoid waveforms. These may be used for envelope shaping (trigger mode) or for low frequency waveforms (free run mode). Manual-Slide tape Controllers (2) for obtaining control voltages. One slide-tape is stepped and may be used as a keyboard and the other for variable control. One provides a trigger pulse. Both may be temporarily marked or written on. Inverter to invert control voltages or signals. Monitor Amplifier and Loudspeaker with two input mixer faders. A 3-octave keyboard for controlling the Synthi E is available. This unit is a mechanical keyboard which plugs into the Synthi E. It provides the correct pitch voltage and trigger signal for the Trapezoid Generator. A switch on the Synthi E selects internal or external keyboard operation. Many of these EMS synth's have been used by Brian Eno, Pink Floyd, Stereolab, Yes, Aphex Twin, Autechre, Jean-Michel Jarre, Astral Projection, Vince Clarke, The Who, Todd Rundgren, Recoil, Freddy Fresh, Ultravox and many more. --- Buyers from non-EU countries – Please Note: Import duties, taxes, and charges are not included in the item price or shipping cost.
