I never heard of a Synthometer before now. If you know more about it, feel free to comment.
via the listing:
"ignore all those cheaper Transcendents ( that probably aren't fully working like this one and don't have famous user owner history like this one ) and buy one from Martin Hannett's personal collection of Transcendent's this one includes Hannetts unique Synthometer a unit that apparently connected this Transcendent to an AMS delay- the fully working Transcendent synth includes the correct vintage case for this synth of Hannett's and the case fits the Hannett Synthometer at the side of the Transcendent - Hannett Transcendent synth no 9 and case No 9- Transcendent is fantastic condition and the analogue sounds are out of this world. Hannett put Transcendent synths into loads of records he produced including Joy Division- there are Transcendent sounds on Unknown Pleasures and other Joy Division recordings from that era . Hannett produced and sometimes played synth effects on Joy Division early New Order, Durutti Column, John Cooper Clarke, Nico, Buzzcocks, Magazine, Pauline Murray, U2, Stone Roses, Happy Mondays, he was really responsible for bringing synths and echoes into punk and post punkReady to plug in and create those Joy Division/ Manchester /Hannett sounds- this synth was designed by Tim Orr who also worked for EMS.
This has not just been stuck in an attic for years and full of dodgy controls or part working- this is fully serviced and refurbished and ready to go
will come with letter of provenance and Hannett's notes"
