LYRICON ll COMPUTONE 2 ANALOG SYNTHESIZER
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.

Pics of the inside below.
"This unit is essentially a two-oscillator analog synthesizer interfaced to a clarinet-like controller, as opposed to the usual keyboard. It also has outputs to connect to additional analog synths. The keys of the controller are "wired" to electrical contacts and it has breath control and reed pressure sensors.
The electronics of the synthesizer on this unit are 100% functional and have been serviced by an experienced synthesizer tech. Needed are repairs to the power supply section, and a good cleaning. NOTE: The controller needs cleaning and servicing as well and has problems with the breath control and reed pressure sensors. The keys all work fine. Service is still available for these problems from Bill Bernardi, the original designer and builder of the Lyricon - here is a link to information on contacting him."

"This is a Lyricon Driver, designed to control external synthesizers via CV signals. It is in good working order as far as I can tell having tested it with a modified Moog Synthesizer. All the keys work. The unit is very clean. The only blemish I have noticed is a small crack in the mouthpiece cover (pictured). This auction is for the items pictured: Lyricon controller, locking case/synth control unit, power cable, manual, sealed keys/misc parts."

"This is a one owner 1970's Computone Lyricon II synthesizer. This is the full synth as opposed to the hand controller. the early model with black knobs and nickel keys. Dual oscillators, and in extremely good condition. Tested with both amp and headphones and everything works properly. It has never had a major repair and all maintenance over the years was done by Jeff Blankensop in Brooklyn. I bought it directly from Computone by mail in 1976 or '77.

LYRICON II WIND SYNTH
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"The Lyricon was invented by Bill Bernardi and Roger Noble of Computone Inc. in Massachusetts in the early 1970's. Three models were built: the original Lyricon I (additive synthesis, one oscillator split into different overtones), the Lyricon Driver (to be connected to an external analog synthesizer through Control Voltages), and the Lyricon II (with two oscillators, filter and LFO). No MIDI functionality was added because MIDI didn't exist yet. Later MIDIfication modules were developed by JL Cooper & STEIM, but never worked very well. Of the Lyricon I, about 200 units were hand made, and about 250 units of the Driver and the Lyricon II were manufactured by Selmer.
The Lyricon reacts to wind pressure (the harder you blow, the louder the sound), lip pressure (for pitch bend and vibrato) and of course changes in pitch by fingering. Some people call it the synthesizer that is closest to the human body, because of these three control parameters, and because of the fact that it works with (continuous) control voltages, rather than MIDI."

Jorrit Dijkstra's Lyricon with Cwejman S2
"My Lyricon Driver and the Cwejman S2 analog synthesizer. The S2 is an pre-patched analog synthesizer with CV inputs (NO MIDI INVOLVED!!), modified by Wowa Cwejman to work with the Driver. The Lyricon Driver's Wind output goes to extra added EG and VCA inputs on the Cwejman S2, the Lip output to the S2's Filter Cutoff, and the Bend Up (pitch) output to the S2's Tune input. But other connections are possible too."
