Rare GEM PK 4900 Synthesizer Demo
video upload by foleytronics fx repair
"In this video, we are displaying Kelly's working GEM PK 4900, a very nice-sounding and rare synth. In addition, feast your eyes and ears on Tom's Publison DHM 89 B2, Anonymous's EMT 250 and Ramble's Juno-6. We recorded the drums in my basement a couple years ago and bounced it to the Tascam portastudio, and we're running it all through the Opamp Labs console (for sale!).
The EMT in this video has been fully done up to the 9s with all new caps, a new 128k SRAM board to reduce heat and improve stability, and of course all digital logic problems solved."

"Jewel Bandolero captures the vintage analog sounds of the distinctive Gem Rodeo 49. This Italian synthesizer was introduced to the market by the Galanti Group in the early 1970s. It featured a 49-key keyboard and drum/rhythm machine, as well as a variety of knobs and faders to control layer volume, instrument type, accompaniment, and tempo. Our library includes synth sustains, staccatos, and “Magic Chords” dialed in from the organ, and 41 tempo-syncable drum machine loops. We recorded the instrument articulations in wide stereo and direct line in. After that, we crafted twenty evolving ambient pads from the source content to enhance versatility. Jewel Bandolero offers an exploration of a classic combo organ, complete with warm tonal colors ready to complement any genre of music.

We’ve packed the GUI with lots of great sound-shaping controls that give you the flexibility to warp the sound in many ways. You have control over Volume, Attack, Release, Transient Offset, Vibrato and Octave layering. The "Glide" control slider allows you to play legato and portamento leads. You’ll also find an adaptable LFO system, with selectable LFO shape, modulation target parameter, speed, intensity, tempo-syncing and fade-in time. You can also apply your choice of 13 lowpass, high-pass and FX filter, with assignable modulation control options, including velocity, modwheel, expression, after-touch, key position and step-sequencer table control. You can also use our customizable arpeggiator, with a built-in velocity sequencer table and control over arp direction, note timing, swing, randomization and duration.
