Teisco S-100P

via this auction

This one is for parts. Pic of the inside below.

"All great sounding preset analogue synths from the 70s, all with aftertouch control of a few parameters, randomly attached voicenames, and fantastic sounds.

This one has the additional quirk of an analogue Flanger & built-in Spring Reverb!

Had a few of these over the years, they sound lovely, probably a bit more aggressive than the Rolands, with a very vocal ARP-y filter.

Good condition, but no output. Just a hum, which doesn't respond to the keys or any of the controls except the Flanger switch. turn that on and you will hear a brief burst of sound. Bought this as is now, was told it was working until one day it didn't. Would suggest checking the power supply first, but seems likely a chips out somewhere along the line."

Teisco Synthesizer 110-F

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


via this auction

You can find demos of the Teisco 110F in previous posts here.

"Ok. You ready for a weird one? This is definitely a quirky little bird of a keyboard.

A lot of things here will be familiar, though: two analog oscillators with very wide frequency ranges that can go from 64ft to 4ft -- and also each be used as LFOs -- with the classic compliment of analog triangle, saw, and square/pulse waves. Two snappy envelopes. A very flexible dedicated LFO with waveshaping. Sample and hold. White and pink noise. Ring mod... I assume you're following along, so far so good.

But then... VCO 1 can FM VCO 2? And then VCO 2 can ring mod VCO 1 at the same time? And then this filter is... a ladder filter? Like a Moog -- but compensated, so it doesn't lose low end when the resonance is turned high and screaming. And then... there is... a filter bank with its own dedicated mixer section. Yes, it works and it is a very bizarre addition that I have pretty much never seen on another monosynth.

Anyway, like I said this is just a very quirky and interesting little thing. I've had a great time squeezing weird late 70s sci-fi vibes out of it, but perhaps it's time for it's next home."

"A demo of the Teisco Synthesizer 60f. No extra FX used. Some pots are a bit crackly and the Youtube sound compression is a bit hard at times. Sorry for this."

Note the video is from 2013.

"This unit is in museum quality shape and plays like it’s new. All slider, switches, knobs are scratch free and the keyboard tracks amazing, better yet with CV-GATE conversion. This is a 100v"

Teisco S-100P Vintage Analog Synthesizer with spring reverb and after touch

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


via this auction

You can find demos of one previously posted here.

"The teisco s-100p is a monophonic synthesizer not unlike the Roland sh1000 and the Yamaha sy-1. Although you have a little bit less control over the sound than with its competitors the s-100p makes up for it with its unique flanger and built-in spring reverb. Its a blast to play with and has a ton of character. It has 32 presets, a brilliance fader (lowpass), pitchbend, portamento/glissando, modspeed and Arps famous aftertouch sensors. With the aftertouch you can control a variety of effects such as, growl, vibrato, pitchbend and the brilliance."

Teisco S110F Mono/Duophonic Analog Synthesizer SN 2140

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

"Nearly Mint in condition, pics show the finish has very little wear with only a couple light dots & scratches (barely visible) to paint, and better than new cosmetically with brand new American Walnut wood sides to replace the crappy particle board.

No corrosion or rust, and the synth was recently pro serviced (service records available upon request).

The pictures speak for themselves this is a great looking synth, with lots of LED feedback. It benefits from having lots of onboard features like EQ filter bank.

It has very snappy envelopes for a mono/duophonic synth, and its built extremely well, with a steel chassis, and ow walnut sides, especially when compared to something like it's progenitor the ARP Odyssey."

Introductions: The Teisco 110F Duophonic Synthesizer + Demo Track~


video upload by Vintage Synthesizer Solutions

"In this video, we barely scratched the surface of what this instrument can do and the depth of its operating modes/feature set. We'd like to do a deeper dive into this synth to demonstrate patch creation and other functionality on a deeper level in the future, if there is interest. Fun fact: Kawai applied both their own name and the Teisco brand name when manufacturing the SX210 and SX-240, depending on the market in which it was to be sold."

"Duophonic synth similar to an Arp Odyssey for its modulation capabilities. Add a naugthy 24db ladder filter and a fixed resonance filter bank and you got a very powerful synth with its own character...

The synth has been serviced last April and works swiftly. The portamento slider has been replaced by a red one, there is some scratches on the wood panels."

"Last of the great Japanese monophonic preset synths, this features all the groovy late 1970s add-ons in the vein of the ARP Pro-Soloist and Roland SH-1000/2000. Built-in spring reverb, aftertouch-controlled growl/bend/vibrato/wow/filter, flanger, repeater, portamento AND glissando. I bought this and used it on an album for a project that no longer exists, so looking to send it off to a new home. I have always used the instrument with a 120V-to-100V step-down converter to meet the Japanese electrical standard, and so recommend that you do the same.

The synth was fully serviced in 2018 and the only thing that the tech said they would eventually replace was the aftertouch strip - there are aftermarket solutions available which would rejuvenate its sensitivity to the way it was when it left the factory. It works well, you just have to press down on the keys firmly, so I didn't opt for that. There's a USB-powered LED strip visible in the pictures which added some fun lights - it comes right off for those looking to keep things vintage ;) It does not come with the original 'music stand' metal attachment nor the plastic cover I believe it came with originally."
