"Starting in 2003 I began to restore the Sal-Mar construction. The machine is a massive analog synthesizer with a unique digital logic control system. There are 4 sub-audio oscillators, 8 audio oscillators, and 2 percussion generators."

"First, in 2007 Matrixsynth covered Greg Danner’s restoration of the notorious Sal-Mar Construction, an obscenely complex synthesizer from 1969 controlled by digital logic sequencers. Also in 1969, Joel Chadabe had Moog build a modular synth along roughly similar lines, no keyboard, lots of sequencers. The innards of the CEMS are documented here."

See the Sal-Mar label below for more.
