PPG Modular System 300


via this auction

details in Googlish:
"Modular system. Historically, to document the development of the former German Synthi-scene, this is a very important and unique exhibit. It is probably time for the Berlin School synth in the 70s by RĂ¼diger Lorenz been built, one of the pioneers in the development and dissemination of synthesizers in Germany.
Mostly, it is equipped with PPG modules, but also some Syntec DiY modules or some modules from the master himself. The modules are distributed on two cases, each with its own 220V power. Both Cases with butterfly closures to a transport unit to be connected. Presumably, this system was for live use. The system is controlled by a Duo phonic PPG 322nd Keyboard Type
Since I am too little familiar with the details here an original info the previous owner:
'The set consists of 300 analog PPG sound modules, installed in a case and another case with SYNTEC PPG-modules and modules and a special trigger generator. Built is an octave filter bank with the bottom-right own LFOs per band filter. The modules are internally Cases in the "additional" wired. Various control lines (lines Trig, VC-lines) are additional switches, disconnectors jacks wired internally.'"

  2. Be 'carefull' this system was sold on ebay already some 8 years ago (i have bigger pics),just to warn u that most if not all of the 'diy' modules are simply formant modules behind a custom frontplate ,so you buy more diy and formant instead of PPG.
