EML ELECTROCOMP 101

via this auction

"very rare 1970's vintage analog synthesizer: The EML Electrocomp Model 101. This machine was a runner up in the early synthesizer market competing with the MiniMoog and the ARP 2600. All are great synths, but each has it's own merits.
The EML 101 is an amazing sounding Analog monster. It is semi-modular with hard wired internal routing, which can be re-routed through the patch bay at the top.
It has 4 oscillators, Oscillator 1 being an LFO and Oscillator 4 can be switched between an LFO or changed up into the audio range. Oscillators 2 and 3 are in the audio range and with the right setting can be played as a duo-phonic voice on the 44-note keyboard. In addition Oscillator 2 and 3 are can crossfade through different wave forms giving it a unique sound when tweaking the knobs.
If you ever wanted one of these, this is the best time. No import duties and way less for shipping.
A hand full of EML 101 synths have been showing up on EBAY U.S. But with import and shipping they are turn out to be very expensive.

In addition it has:
12dB/oct VCF
VCA/ Ring Modulator
2 ADS Envelopes
Sample and hold with its own clock
Mic preamp
Keyboard Control section (allowing multiple equally tempered scales between 12-60 key per octave)"
