Korg PE-1000 Polyphonic Ensemble + FK-4 Traveler Controller Pedal + glide switch (serviced)

Just serviced vintage Korg Polyphonic Ensemble model PE-1000 available for sale, complete with the rare FK-4 Traveller Controller Pedal and glide switch. It's a fantastic sounding synthesizer and not the little brother of the PE-2000. It's sounding way better. This model was Korg's first polyphonic synthesizer and it has some cool features:

• Octave coupler: adds another octave to the sound, the knob is a mixer. Will give a detuning of two oscillators depending on the 'pitch expand' knob in the next section.
• Glide: actually it's a pitch bending knob. The middle position is pitch bend off.
• Pitch expand: changes the tuning linearity, so that the pitch on the higher keyboard end goes a bit higher and the pitch on the lower keyboard part goes down. Together with the octave coupler this function creates the ensemble sound.
• Traveller filter: with low / high pass filter resonance, soft function (adjusting the sound color), expand (adjusting the envelope modulation to the filter).
• FK-4 pedal: gives the player the opportunity to change the filter setting while playing. This is a very useful option.

Cosmetically there are some signs of use, but the overall condition is excellent. Especially the Rolex has some signs of use, the octave coupler knob isn't original, and there is minor wear and tear on the keys and knobs. Please check all the photos before you purchase this synth.

It's an original 220v version and the serial number is: 760243
