Maestro Sound System

Click here for shots via this auction. Sample link below.

"Try routing a drum track through it! Weird! Used by folks like Tomita - (The Planets), and other progressive musicians. It is used on the sax on Traffic's 1971 Low Spark for High Heeled boys as well. LISTEN to this awesome excerpt! Classic!. Also appears on the Melvin Jackson LP Funky Skull. Melvin is pictured on the cover with the Maestro sitting on his amp."

J.U.M.S. RMI Harmonic Synthesizer

"The RMI Harmonic Synthesizer is really rare on this planet. There are only 4 known RMI's in Europe!

So I decided build one myself, both IRL and digitally. One would excpect that, since the RMI has digital oscillators, it would be easy to create one digitally... WRONG! The real RMI oscillators can go beyond our audible range. Just because we can't hear such high frequencies doesn't mean we don't need it. Instead a really high sample rate is needed to get near. And all that because the unaudible sounds interfere with the audible sound :) Also the dynamic filter on the real RMI is really special. Unfortunately that is not easily emulated..."
