E-MU Systems - Proformance 1
Herbs and Stones - 3 Stems
Walrus Audio - Qi Etherealizer

I’ve been drawn to vintage gear lately and searching for something to add to the lofi set up. Signal Sounds now have a Pre-owned section and I saw this E-MU piano rack mount synth. I’ve wanted a way of getting a hardware lofi piano vibe and this little E-MU box worked out perfectly.

From 1990, it’s in perfect condition with a mint condition manual. Very basic set up with minimal settings and 15 presets.

This was an experiment to see how to combine the lofi saturation of the 3 Stems with granular delay and reverb of the Etherealizer.

I’m controlling the E-MU with a basic Keystep 32."
