Maplin 5600s

Videos below.

"Maplin 5600s stereo synthesizer. It's a very rare vintage matrix synthesizer, rich in parameters ... much more than an EMS VCS3. This isn't a typical example, either. Unlike most, the construction and wiring quality is absolutely professional, so it comes in perfect working condition, serviced and tested recently. The original service manual is included.... very unique cover! The Matrix has 30 x 30 contact points (900 in total) for complex I/O and control voltages. It has a built in spring reverb and an amazing cv controlled phaser. Many features: 4x VCO's, 1x LFO, noise and Sample & hold, 3x audio Mixers, 2x CV controlled mixers, 2x Transient envelopes (that you can use as sequencer with hold delays & portamento, amazing!) 1x Trapezoid envelope, 2x 24db filters, 2x VCA, 2x Ring modulators, Spring Reverberation, amazing Phaser, 2x Audio in modules, Pan controls, Joystick and more. The keyboard is 5 octaves and there are 2x cv controls and gate (2x trig inputs, switchable from the audio in modules) retrigger, echo send / return, foot pedal & switch connections. Working voltage: 220 / 240 volts There are 3 fresh youtube demos about this Maplin 5600s: filters on phasing patch and other 2 of transient techno sequences, you can check the videos from this channel" below
