EML ElectroComp Vintage Synthesizer Brochures
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"This a crazy rare treasure trove of vintage 1970's original material from the Electronic Music Laboratories Inc, (EML), makers of the Electrocomp Synthesizer line. The company was based in Vernon, Connecticut and made a line of quasi-modular synths that competed with Moog, Arp and Oberheim. More rare than these other well known names, these synthesizers had unique features for the price and a distinct sound to them.
Included in this package are:
(1) EML Family of Synthesizer Brochure, half folded into a four page brochure. The last quarter page is a response card that was returned, presumably to receive the other brochures that are included. This brochure includes pictures and features of the EML 101, EML 200, EML 400 Series and the Syn-Key
(1) "The Best Portable Synthesizer In The World" Electrocomp 101, half folded into a four page brochure with detailed illustrations and technical features. Note the price of $1495 back then! The keyboard player in my high school and college band has this synth and I spent many hours hearing it do bass lines and leads, cool stuff!! It was duophonic, patchable and hot stuff at the time!
(1) This Synthesizer Started a Revolution! ElectroComp 200, half folded into a four page brochure with detailed illustrations and technical features (note there are two of these in the picture, but only one is included in this auction). This is an interesting unit that seems to be designed to teach synthesize to students at school and appears to be an "expander" unit to the 101 with a price of $950
(1) Todays Sound, The Right Price!, Electrocomp 500 $895 half folded into a four page brochure with detailed illustrations and technical features. This one does not have patch points and appears to hard connect key features from the 101.
They are in excellent condition and perhaps some of rarest vintage synth literature from the period. EML was relatively short lived despite the quality of their products and it is hard enough to find any of their synthesizers let alone a set of documents like this!!"

"Here a little idea I had last night. You will here only 2 sequences. The first one is an 8 step sequence from the Synthesizers.com Q960 doing a deep synth-bass sound. Row 1 provides the voltage for the pitch, row 2 the voltage to modulate the VCF and row 3 the voltage to modulate the VCA. The second 4-step sequence from the Doepfer MAQ16/3 drives a bongo-like sound from the self build Modular. Strings are performed on the Roland XP-80 and the solo's on the Waldorf Q Keyboard and the Clavia Nord Lead 1.
The video is filmed by my girlfriend Anne using my iPhone 4.
You can download/see/hear the video and music from my website soon."

"Experimenting with the 291e dynamic filtering effects. Morphing and jumping between snapshots. Modulating freq, bandwidth and amplitude.
Sound source: only 258v + 259e + 291e.
Other modules involved: 258v, 259e, 256e, 250e, 281e, 292e, 210e, p/r, pulse balloon, slew, adsr, 266e, 206e.
No other effects than 291e."

"音はホワイトノイズを使い、雨のバシャバシャ感、低いゴロゴロ感を出すためピンクノイズをフィルターモジュレーションとして使っています。
破裂音はHPFがあればもっとそれらしくなるのですが、MS-10にはLPFしかないのでミキサのEQをかけてごまかしています。"
Googlish: "I am using the pink noise modulation as a filter for sound "use the white noise, give a sense of splashing of rain, a sense of low rumbling.
Plosive is becoming more it seems if there is a HPF, not deception over the EQ of the mixer to the MS-10 because there is only LPF."
Rain & thunder.
