images via this auction" A rare subtractive analog synth, manufactured in 1982 by the Kirov radio plant in the former Soviet Union is here now! Fully functional! There is an original soviet factory structure - i.e. method of synthesis, knob resistors, parts, connections, voltage etc. It runs on 220V AC (US customers will need an adaptor). NO MIDI, CV-GATE OR SYNC ARE INSTALLED.
HERE DESCRIPTIONS FROM BOOK "VINTAGE SYNTH'S A-Z" BY PETER FORREST:
Ritm-2: 32-note (F-C) 1-VCO monophonic synth.
- Neat little synth with a mix of knobs and sliders. Sprung pitch-bend
wheel; modulation slider. Portamento / glissando; LFO - saw, triangle or
random; VCO: three waveforms; noise; VCF with resonance, switchable key
follow. Two ADSRs.
- This seems to have a feel of early Korg about it - nice. Made in the
Kirov factory."

ReplyDeletei baught it.. and it was packed poorly and arrived dammaged.. now I'm trying to figure out how to fix it and where to track down the componants.
ReplyDeleteWhat happened was the transformer broke off the bottom board and smashed around inside breaking out a few capacitors and resistors..
Figuring out how to rewire the transformer is a nightmare.. I managed to track down a shematic, but its in russian..
Anyone who can help please email me @ fjcatania@gmail.com
