The 1983 Digipoly

"Digipoly was an 8 voice polyphonic keyboard synthesiser designed in 1983. It used entirely digitial synthesis and it was a contemporary of the 'groundbreaking' Yamaha DX7, which also claimed entirely digital synthesis. Digipoly had an intelligent automatic arpegiator mode that would still be considered good today.

Actually, the Digipoly was not entirely digital, because master tune, vibrato and tremolo were implemented by respective analog modulation of the master digital clock and the DAC reference voltage." You can find more info on the Digipoly here. It was designed by Dr. D J Greaves. You can find more of his projects here.

Update: I originally had the wrong image on top. It is now updated. I accidentally had the CBG posted here. Thanks goes to Mars for calling out in the comments.
