via swissdoc: "something I came across at synthesizerforum.deKlangmaschinen website
Very nice electronic music stuff from Austria and/or used by
Austrian acts and/or shown in Austrian museums.
For instance:
the "Hönig-Synthesizer" (pictured)
Neo-Bechstein Grand
Subharchord II
Max Brand Synthesizer
Some sound examples included. Worth to click through all items." Definitely worth checking out.
Excerpt on the Hönig-Synthesizer pictured from the site:
"125 x 87 x 166 cm, ca. 70 kg
Metal, sound frequency unit (eight voltage controlled oscillators, twelve amplifiers with envelope generators, eight filters, three ring modulators and impulse and noise generators), control voltage unit (four digital 12-bit low-frequency oscillators, sample & hold, envelope tracker, control voltage mixer), control computer (SYM) with 6502 CPU, eight 12-bit digital-analogue converters, twelve trigger impulse outputs, software), matrix plug board (4 x 16 x 16), sound and control voltage patch bay
The control voltages and trigger impulses generated by the SYM microcomputer can be attributed to the envelope generators, LFOs, sample & holds, filters and oscillators on the matrix plug board and the patch bay. The EMC Compiler composition software developed for this machine by the composer Helmuth Dencker allows the use of a variety of algorithms (tendency, loop, random, transposition) – a hybrid system for complex compositions (without tape splicing and with purely analogue synthesis)." more
