Digitone DS1000


Update via wmoecke in the comments: "This synth was created and sold exclusively by DIGITONE, a company owned and operated by Mr. Christóvão Batista da Silva. It never had anything at all to do with Gianinni. Please correct."

Gianninni was a Brazilian brand that re-packaged Siel synths as you can see in these previous posts.

Original description via flickr By msxgalaga:

"DS1000 Giannini Programmable polyphonic synthesizer 80s ad from Bizz music magazine.

32 factory made presets, delay, chorus, white noise, env polarity, DCO, VCA, LFO, ADSRI e II, bender/pitch, atack/delay/sustain/release... you could create and save your own presets for 2 years in the databank. Create new voices/instruments and add various effects. Up-down digital command on display. polyphonic flute bank. Combine and mix flute, synth & string sounds simultaneously. Sounds like a lot of fun... uh? haven't seen this one being sold anywhere in while. Sorry guys for the crap image... low resolution. Maybe I'll try to get this ad properly scanned sometime in the future... Anne.etzel requested more Giannini ages ago this is why I uploaded this image.. did you notice how I hardly ever check my own flickr gallery?

Propaganda de uma revista Bizz dos anos 80.
o primeiro sintetizador polifonico de 8 vozes totalmente programável produzido no Brasil.
Esse texto é grande e eu escaneie numa resolução ruim. Depois escrevo o que diz no anuncio.

80talls brasiliansk synth, masse teknisk informasjon. Gidder ikke å oversette nå... kanskje senere"


Update: new scan via tumbler
