Rare Vintage PAiA Gnome with Original Box


via this auction

"It was originally made to imitate the sound of the wind, but it was possible to make other sounds as well. It has a small vinyl controller strip originally used to control the "strength" of the wind or other effects. Because of its small size and battery power, this small synth has become something of a classic. Very simple VCO and Noise source to VCF with just ribbon control and a couple function generators to do envelops with a trigger. Supposedly, only about 300 of these syths were made. This one has its original shipping box..."
