"This unit is part of the Rick Powell Collection. Rick was a musician, a major producer and a contemporary and close friend of Bob Moog, among others, and often received original units from manufacturers to test in the studios...
This is a vintage Maestro Sound System for woodwinds (It allows a choice between clarinet and sax at the input). It's a "sort of" synthesizer that will take the input from your woodwind pickup and allow you to select from a bank of sounds that it emulates as you play. Seems really simple to operate, which is good because we don't have the manual for this. So let's say you pop in your clarinet and select Baritone Sax... it comes through the speaker an octave lower with a nice growl. Same with Tuba, etc. It's in fine condition - really good condition. You can ALSO do combos of sounds as you play. Very interesting piece of gear. These are the sounds:
Contra, Fuzz Tone, Cello, Tuba, Bass Sax, Bass Clarinet, Bassoon, English Horn, Oboe, Muted Horn, Natural Amp"
