Powertran Transcendent 2000

images via this auction
"This is an ETI (Electronics Today International) magazine project I built back in the very early 80's.
I used this synth for several years at home and remember it had been fully working before putting into long term storage (20 years) in my loft. I have recently replaced the mains transformer but that did not get it up and running. I now believe the fault to be a component on the power supply circuit board. This could be a lucrative project for anyone with knowledge of testing and repair of electronic circuit boards.

The Synthersizer is complete and externally in a clean condition, I have included the original filter sweep foot pedel. There are a couple of pages missing from the ETI project instruction manual but I have found and printed the pages from a file (which I can forward on in pdf format allowing you to zoom in for greater detail) on the internet which I believe completes the information. The original Powertran 79/80 catalogue has some writing on but is complete and is also included."
