FULLY SERVICED by pro tecnician

Collector’s Item: this is serial N. 20!! (only 100 units were produced)

- with Breath Controller
- original Case

Fully Analog Monophonic Portable Monster, with CEM filters

this info on page 77 of Peter Forrest's trusty 'A-Z of ANALOGUE SYNTHS, PART 1' - Synthaphone: 37-note (F-F) monosynth with breath control. 1982-84. 'The little wind synth with the big sound!’

8 presets: Tuba, Horn, Trombone, Trumpet, Sax, Clarinet, Oboe, Flute (the lower-pitched ones definitely have more power, as is common with early preset synths). The Portamento controls are On/Off, Auto (i.e. legato-only or always), Rate. Volume knob, Pitch knob (tunable over about 1.5 octaves!), Touch Sensitivity (for the Touch Vibrato, a fine feature allowing you to rhythmically push down on any key for natural vibrato) and Breath Sensitivity. The last refers to the little breath controller (with small mouthpiece attached to one of two narrow rubber tubes about 18' long) which you can attach to one end of the keyboard."

"This is without a doubt the nicest Crumar Bit 99 I’ve ever owned or seen. It looks beautiful and shows signs of only very light use. It’s been well cared for in its life.

Everything works as it should — zero issues.

- power supply electrolytic capacitors replaced

- voice board electrolytic capacitors replaced

- firmware upgraded with Tauntek one: you can now easily control and program the synth with any midi controller

- keyboard dismantled and contacts and bus bar cleaned

- meticulously calibrated

- panel board and case fully dismantled, cleaned and polished

PLEASE NOTE: This is a 220-volt unit. You will need a step-up transformer to use this in the U.S. or Asia. This auction includes the power cable with the Euro/U.K. plug as shown in the photos, but no step-up transformer is provided."

"Beautiful and super rare Crumar Spirit, designed by Bob Moog in the early 80’s, only around 100 pieces produced. This unit works at 117V from factory, if you use it in Europe you should buy a voltage converter (around 50€ for a good one on Amazon) The working condition are very good, I never had a single problem with this synth from when I bought it, obviously you should consider that it’s a 40+ years old instrument and sometimes could need some knobs cleaning and standard maintenance. The aesthetic condition are very good for its age, as usual there are different signs of use here and there, please take a look at the pictures and don’t hesitate to ask for more, I’ve tried to point every cosmetic defect in my photos. After several bad experiences with customs, I will only ship to EU, UK and Switzerland. - NO SECOND CHANCE ON SUNDAY FOR THIS ITEM -"

Crumar Performer MK2 (SSM 2040 filter) / analog polyphonic synth

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
video upload by ohm_studi_ohm

"The Crumar Performer is a string and brass synth that has some features that grants it to be part of the hall of fame of paraphonic analog synths.
First it's a quite compact and lightweight contender in such a category.
Then it has a very nice and warm sounding resonant filter, based on the SSM 2040 and 2050 chipsets, just like in the Sequential Prophet 5. First version of the Performer used a Moog inspired transistor ladder filter, also resonant. It sounds good too but I definitely prefer that one.

The string sound have variable attack and release time and those can be quite long, great for pads and ambiance. But in my opinion what makes it special is the 3 band Eq which allows for quite a large panel of variety of tones, and it can get into almost vocal territories (check video at 05:49).
recorded through a Dynacord VRS23 for added reverb."

via this Reverb listing

"the Crumar Performer is one of the classic string synth. This one is the second version with the updated filter (SSM 2040 like on the Sequential Circuits Prophet 5).

Unit was serviced and is perfectly working. Power suply was recapped and everything was cleaned and calibrated. Cosmetic is quite good, despite some scuff and wear here and there.
It's quite compact and lightweight compared to others string synth (77x35x19cm 12kilos)"

"The Bit-01 is a 6-voice programmable polyphonic analog synthesizer with digital control developed by Crumar. It is essentially a rackmount version of the Bit-99 keyboard synthesizer. It has two analog oscillators per voice that are digitally stabilized and controlled. Also on-board are resonant filters, ADSR envelopes and two LFOs. Fairly easy hands-on editing and a layer/split function make this a very useable poly-synth! The MIDI implementation is basic but useable and there are 99 memory patches. The Bit-01 is well suited for studio use and in all forms of electronic music."

Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

via this listing

See the seller's other listing for more.

"This is the rarest first version of the amazing sounding Crumar Multiman.

The main difference beetween this first version and the second version Multiman S is the possibility to use SUSTAIN on Piano/Clavi sounds (which is not possibile on the second version... Strangely)

For that reason, being a keyboard player, i consider this first version more appealing to play then the Multiman S.

Sonically are identical.

It comes with its original Crumar Pedal

FULLY SERVICED by pro tecnician

100% Perfectly working conditions

Very good aestetics conditions for its age (tiny little marks and scretches around and on some keys)"

"View the attached video to hear this exact synth in use!

Quite uncommon analog string synth/piano here. It’s the Univox branded version of the original Crumar Multiman (pre-S model).

Great brass sound with adjustable ADSR/filter, piano, clav, violin, cello. All sounds can be individually volume adjusted and split on one or both sides of the keyboard, pretty rad!"
