  2. It looks like a customized Dr. Böhm drum machine combined with their mini-keyboard. (Americans know little-to-nothing about the strange things the German organ manufacturers made, which is sad. I guess Wersi, Dr. Böhm, S&K etc. did not market to the US.)

  4. i bought exactly the same stuff some years ago on €bay (bohm, indeed), and it arrived here completely destroyed (thanks ups)
    (i took some pics of the broken thing), now i manage to here it, i m a bit upset, thinking i was close to own the same stuff fully working (i know, it s crappy, but i like that kind of things too, hard to make the same sounds with good synths)

  5. I would be surprised if Kraftwerk didn't use one of these. That really sounded kraftwerkish.
