Note: the watermarks do kind of kill these shots for wallpaper, but aside from that they are good and the seller sent them in, so they are going up. If you are interested in looking at these up close, they work.

BTW keep an eye out for the next post going up.

"extremly rare Original EMS Synthi A in nice conditions + the EMS DKII oscillator keyboard & cable + Midi to synthi interface. All Matrix patch pins are present and all in like new conditions. I have tried it and It is perfect working conditions like the keyboard and the interface. This synthi A is not a reproduction but original from EMS and the panel is cream color."

"Here is a very big modular custom multitap delay system composed by 8 powerful vintage Powertran delay. I bought this system in the past from a large analog recording studio in perfect working order but without knobs....It is a minor shape problem can you can solve with every knobs standard type.. I tried it and each module is a cool SAMPLER delay!! All the 8 units are working but I don't know how the other parameters works outside the delays. Working voltage 220 or 240 volts. It is very large and weight about 35 / 40 kilograms so the shipping & packing costs to Europe are of 60 euro about, To Italy about 35 euro" Inside a Powertran.
