Sequential Circuits Pro-One Chenrizig, Tibetan Buddha of Compassion

via Mark Milanovich

"Was working on my Sequential Circuits Pro-One synth last night and wanted to share a picture of the main board. It's amazing at how many easter eggs they put on it. Here is a screened image of the Chenrizig, Tibetan Buddha of Compassion. On the top is the Tibetan chant etched in solder, "Om Mani Padme Hum". Also, the CPU on every Pro-One was programmed to go through this chant in binary form every time you start the synthesizer. Why, oh why can't they make things like this anymore?"

  1. Whoa! I haven't seen this for many years. You left out the picture of the Magic Mushrooms etched in solder unfortunately...
