Electrocomp EML 500


via this auction

"This is a rare Electrocomp EML500 analogue mono synth. It was launched as Electrocomp's answer to the Moog Prodigy but was never made in anything like the same quantities. It has two VCOs (with a weird sync capability), noise source, an interesting LFO, sample & hold, pitch scaling (for exotic microtonal scales), ring modulator, multimode filter with HP, BP, LP modes (very rare at the time), envelope generator, CV/Gate in and out (although not 1v/Oct) and a mic input. Capable of some very odd sounds and the 3.5 octave keyboard makes it a lot of fun to solo on. I bought it to replace my EML100 but it's not really in the same league as that or the EML101, still a cool synth though."
