"The System 100 is a great and classic analog synth! It's a beautiful semi-modular monophonic synth consisting of 5 module components:
Synthesizer 101 SERIAL No. 500950
Expander 102 SERIAL No. 490688
Sequencer 104 SERIAL No. 510691
2 Monitor Speakers 109 SERIAL No. 500870 & 500871
The Synthesizer 101 section is the heart of the system, from which you could add-on any of the other modules of your choice. Different combinations of these components can be used to create systems of varying potential.
the Synthesizer 101 section is a fully self-contained analog mono-synth. It features a 37-note keyboard (with no performance controls, velocity or aftertouch), and lots of sliders to tweak. Its design is similar to the SH-series analog synths. Controls for the VCO, LFO, VCF lowpass/highpass filters, VCA with ADSR, Noise, and Portamento/Glide effects are all within hands reach. There's also a handy A-440Hz tuning oscillator, like on the Minimoog.
The Expander 102 section is a keyboard-less version of the 101, designed to stand upright and behind the main Synthesizer 101. More than one Expander 102 can be added to make your system fatter and fatter! The Expander is identical to the Synthesizer except that it replaces Portamento/Glide effects with a Sample-and-Hold feature for the LFO, the Noise gen. is replaced by a Ring Modulator, and the A-440 tuning osc. is replaced by weak/strong sync inputs and a mix-in jack. The Expander is an excellent way to add more oscillators and synth effects (the s&h and ring-mod) to a System 100. The oscillators can be synced if you have both modules. The 101 & 102 are already internally patched and ready to produce sounds, but that can be bypassed by external patching.
The Mixer 103 is a cool add-on. Features 4 inputs and 4 sliders, and mixes these down to 2 outputs. There are two analog VU meters (a nice touch) as well as panning, mono effect sends/returns, and a built-in spring reverb! The Model 103 is designed to sit on the right side of the System and feeds the Monitor Speakers. The speakers provide a stereo monitoring source which is another great (optional) touch! The Mixer not only has outputs for these speakers, but also Line-Outs for use live or in the studio! On the left side of the System sits the Sequencer 104. This analog sequencer can be used to drive your System with a 12x2 step pattern sequencer. It features variable gate time, series or parallel modes, Start, Stop, Continue, and Step buttons."
I don't understand this guy,for this he ship internationaly,but for other things that are litlle not...why?
ReplyDeleteIs wavstudios just a synth reseller? Occasionally he says things like 'this is a spare Jomox Sunsyn' -- I don't really get it. Who has a 'spare Jomox Sunsyn'.
ReplyDeleteAnyone know if Wavstudios is just a synth reseller or is it a studio for real that may a) have shut down, b) a real studio that seems to be the mecca of synths.
I don't understand Wavstudios either. They probably are really a studio and not a reseller because of the inconsistancy in their prices. Once in a while he will have a decent price on something, but then there's those items are are just way off, like the D550 w/ PG1000 for $1000+! (he's since lowered it to $900) Also, he's selling studio gear and not just synths. For the most part his prices are insane.
ReplyDeleteit seems to me like if he knew his stuff and used it, he would provide more information about functionality than he does. but i dont know.
ReplyDeleteinstead of all this endless speculation, why dont you curious people just email the guy directly and find out?
Because someone who sets such ridiculous prices must not be someone worth of communicating with.
ReplyDeleteHe's always replied to any questions I've had about his auctions before.
ReplyDeleteI'm looking at that Jomox Sunsyn.
I'm only worried because I've heard reliability problems with the Jomox Sunsyn.
