Synthfind

“Rare, 1978 vintage, classic analog mono synth famously used by Joy Division, New Order, Thomas Dolby et al. These don’t come up for sale often and I know I’ll regret selling it but need to slim down the studio.

Used very sparingly in my smoke-free / pet-free home studio only. Nothing sounds exactly like this synth, it has a very peculiar analog, powerful sound – but it can also be shaped to sound gentle.

This one was very well built and all the functions work perfectly on it.

Cosmetically in excellent shape too. (the plastic “skirt” of one knob (the tuning / pitch knob) has a little dent -see one of the photos – it’s virtually unnoticeable as the whole surface of the synth is same black color.)

(Note on the keyboard mechanics: these old types of synths’ keyboard use the old method where there is a bus bar with two contact strips, one for CV and one for Gate. All 37 cv & gate key contacts are working perfectly. However it is possible that during shipment, if the synth gets moved abruptly a CV or gate wire might end out of line and not touch the contact bar. IF this happens, all you need to do is simply open the case, and gently pull the wire back on to touch the bar. I WILL pack the synth extremely well, inside its flight case, and then into a thick carboard box with plenty of packing so it shouldn’t move. But I wanted to mention this in case you receive it and one of the keys doesn’t play or is stuck it is extremely easy to fix.)” Click here to visit listing on eBay
