Crumar Synergy

Anyone know the relationship between Crumar and DK if any?

Update: I did a quick search here and found this post. The DK Synergy was based on the Crumar GDS. There is also reference to Crumar GDS on sequencer.de. It is interesting how different manufacturers overlapped. There were others. The Sequential Circuits Fugue for example was actually manufactured by Siel.

  1. The Synergy was branded as a Digital Keyboards or DK product, not Crumar. Notice the stylized 'dk' silkscreen on the front panel.

  2. Yeah that's technically right although there is an affiliation with Crumar. I did a quick search here and found this post. There is also reference to Crumar GDS on sequencer.de.

  3. Also, the Synergy II+ with a KayPro computer and the Synergy software gave you the full functionality of the GDS system for one-sixth the price.

  4. Basically a warm sounding DX7.
