[To be clear, I am not the seller]
"a rare synthesizer produced in 6 or maximum 7 pieces in the world. This is the PPG 1003 soniccarrier, famous beceause used from Klaus SHulze with his PPG 300 system , and from Tangerine Dream. The 1003 is a analog 2 VCO controlled in a digital way by PUSHBUTTONS for to have + or - values . But the Sound is totally analog like the PPG 300 system. This synthesizer was also possible to remove from its case and put in a PPG300 system like was in Shulze's system. The synth is a monophonic 2 VCO with a memory section for to store programs. Was the first one that was able to store (we was in 1976). The cosmetics conditions of my 1003 are very good, but of course is used because this one was s/n 002 and was the one used in the SHOW in 1976 and 77. But the frontal panel is perfect.The synths works perfect but the memory section not always store, but this was the normal working way of the 1003 since the beginning. The 1003 is big, weight 20 ks, and is not eaasy to ship. The 1003 was a prototype and yuo know that all PPG producta ARE wanderfull and crazy at the same time. The unit ha salso the CV ,GATE and FILTER for to give you the way of to drive the 1003 with every device like interface or modular system."
