"Excellent immaculate condition, has been sitting up in the loft untouched for 30 years. Only used a couple of times from new. Recently had the power updated and a few parts inside changed, to ensure it’s working beautifully. Found a detailed manual for it online: [PDF]"
"The Transcendent Polysynth was a 4 voice, polyphonic synthesizer. Based on CEM ICs the design by Tim Orr was published in ETI from December 1980 to March 1982. It was available as a kit or fully assembled from Powertran"

Nice. Had a 4 voice version few years ago. When fully working it sounds very similar to the OBXa
ReplyDeletegreat synth but suffers from unreliable tantalum capacitors rated 16v - i have updated most of these to 35v so it should be better now. Also now making midi interface so that should be interesting.
