"This is a very rare and unusual synth. Only a few hundred EML200's were made. This EML200 synthesizer is a vintage synth fanatics dream come true. Its capable of sounding like nothing else we have ever heard. It's the perfect cross between a musical patchable synth like a Moog or ARP 2600 and RAW test equipment - great for someone who needs really science fiction sound effects, drones or crazy tones - oscillator sweeps, pings, bleeps, huge reverberating swells, clangy metallic sounds, harsh noises, you name it! The tone of this EML200 is very different from that of any other manufacturer. It can be raw, nasty and harsh but also pure and floaty. Nothing we know of sounds spacier than this things spring reverb! Great for the experimental musician or sound designer / noisician. It's a great stand alone unit but also makes a terrific companion to the EML-101 and other Electrocomp products (which we can supply you with as well), or, cross patch it with your other modular gear for variety! It's also a really unique processing tool. There's a mic preamp for you to patch external sounds through the electro comp, high pass and low pass filters, TWO ring modulators, 3 oscillators, and more:

"Not in the best cosmetic condition but it works fine.The wooden laminate has been painted black but can be replaced. Some of the knob covers are missing and a couple of the pots are a bit scratchy so need a clean or replacing. Please make sure you understand this before bidding. Other than that a truly decent analogue mono synth. Excellent at lead sounds and a nice action to the keyboard."

You can actually use the slider on these to draw oscillator waveforms and of course play them.

For those unfamiliar with Vector synthesis, think of being able to pan between the individual oscillators. Typically Vector synths have four oscillators with various waveforms you can pic from. You then use a joystick to morph between them. In reality you are adjusting the various mix levels of each with all levels max when the joystick is in the center. The Prophet VS from Sequential Circuits was the first Vector synth. When DSI ended the technology went to Yamaha and Korg. Yamaha came out with the SY22 and TG33 Vector synths and Korg came out with the Wavestation. The Wavestation added Wave Sequencing to the picture which allowed you to sequence through the various waveforms of an oscillator similar to Wavetable synthesis, but instead of having discrete Wavetables to sequence through you sequenced through all waveforms available. It's similar but the implementation of each is different enough to have you approach them differently.
