via this auction"sought-after 1970s analogue string synthesizer. The Logan has a 49 note C-C keyboard with a split point in the middle & is built into a wooden, tolex covered, flight case. There are sliders to control the volume of the different instrument types - violin, viola & cello - which are all fully polyphonic (unlike for example the ARP Solina & Omni, or the Roland string synths, which are paraphonic). The sounds can be mixed together or used separately & are basically 4' 8' & 16' stops. There is also a monophonic bass sound which can be mixed in with its own slider & can have a percussive attack added via another slider.
The string sound is lush & full; not as bright as an ARP, but with a lovely warm tone. The built in 'ensemble' or chorus makes a wonderfully complex sound & has its own large dedicated circuit board. In addition to the basic string sound there are a few pre-set sounds, including orchestra, organ & accordian.
