EKO Ecosynth P15

Trip. Never saw one of these before. Up for auction on the *bay.



Description from auction:
"EKO EKOSYNTH P15
3 1/2 Octave Analog Monophonic Synthesiser made by EKO in Italy, in the late 70s or early 80s

Description:

This is a SERIOUSLY RARE monosynth.
It says "digital system" on the front panel, but that refers to the fact that most of the circuitry consists of Integrated Circuits rather than indivudual components.
There are 15 preset sounds (Hence, P15). You can play them as they stand, or switch the Voltage Controlled Filter (VCF), and Voltage Controlled Amplifier (VCA) into "manual" mode, and tweak the sound anyway you want. There is also a full LFO section, capable of affecting the Oscillator, and the Filter. (Wah Wah and Tremolo). The VCO functions can be delayed as well. (as per Roland Juno)!
It is strictly monophonic, ie you can play one note at a time.

Construction:
This machine is built into a heavy-duty flightcase, constructed from wood, and sheet steel. The case also has a vinyl coating. It's heavy!"
