CONDOR SAXOPHONE SYNTHESIZER by HAMMOND

via this auction.
"For sale here is an ULTRA rare synthesizer (the VERY FIRST) for any wind instrument. It was made in the very early seventies buy Hammond (the organ folks). The synth unit is stored in it's own locking carrying case...the key is included. The power cord also stores in it's own locking compartment...the same key locks this too. When performing, the synth unit is locked to the top of the extended carying handle. The synth unit has slider controls for intensity and rate of vibrato, control of treble and bass, tone and volume, sensitivity, mono or stereo signal. It also has organ type switches for Repeat, attack, tremolo/vibrato,sub octave, dyna mute, fuzz, bass sax, tuba, bass clarinet, basson, English Horn, cello, natural amplify, horn, oboe and soprano sax. The front of the unit has a stop bar to cut signal and two micro inputs from the horn's contact mic . It does not include a contact mic. The only missing part is one of the pulls at the side of the unit that release the handle so it can be raised to withdraw the synth unit."
