"ALISA-1377 - RARE SOVIET-ERA MONOPHONE ANALOG VINTAGE SYNTH BUILT IN 1983 BY LUBERETSKY PLANT IN THE SOVIET UNION!
HERE DESCRIPTIONS FROM THE BOOK "VINTAGE SYNTH'S A-Z" BY PETER FORREST: Alisa 1377 - 44-note (F-C) 1-VCO monosynth. Designed as a standard monosynth, but also a source of "non-standardelectrical signals for scientific and educational needs". VCO has controls for waveform, FM, mod amount, PWM, harmonics, portamento, tuning, and octave switching. Simple vibrato LFO; VCF; ADSR. Switching is generally done with push-buttons.
IT IS BUILT LIKE A ROCK OF THICK STEEL AND SIDEPANELS ARE REAL WOOD. THE SOUND OF THIS LITTLE BEAST IS BRAIN DAMAGING!!! CRYSTAL CRISP WITH INCREDIBLE LOWS. YOU CAN FIND SOME EXAMPLES HERE.
No midi, no CV/Gate are installed. US customers will need a step-up power converter (this machine operates at 220V/50-60Hz). THE SET INCLUDES: ALISA-1377 SYNTHESIZER, POWER CORD, 5-DIN TO 1/4 JACK ADAPTER. "

ReplyDeleteIs it just me, or does having a synth covered with cyrillic labesl seem like the most bad ass thing ever?
