Pointless Noodling on the ELKA x705 SPACE ORGAN


YouTube via mee3d

"A fantastic sounding, entirely analogue dual manual organ from the late 70's. Featuring a very good (for the time) Hammond clone, 2 Elka Rhapsody 610 string machines, an Elka Soloist 505 monophonic synthesizer, a punch brass preset synth, a retro style beatbox and nice sounding spring reverb. A huge beast of a synth which requires 2 people to lift but great fun to play!"

  1. Cool. I've got one of these (the local guitar center knows I like kooky old keyboards) for $100! It has the pedals and a 100lb power supply 240v to 120v converter thingy. The sounds are out of this world, which maybe is why they called it the "Star Wars" organ. The manual/schematic is in Italian.Th anks for the poinless noodling. It's not pointless to me... It's a great primer. I'll post something when I have something worthy. Thanks!
