This instrument is designed to produce great audio drones and soundscapes. Excellent for live performances or use in the studio as a sound source for samples. The signature on the back is the original user of the meter. Please ask any questions you may have on this device.

Please see pictures on the physical conditon of thisdevice. The is wear, scratches, and chips in the wood case. I left this intact to preserve its charicter. The only original electrical component is the meter, and this appears to have the tip of the needle broken. The needle moves in correspondence to the output signal.

Be sure to see the pic of it folded up.

"Circa late 1960's, this is a rare MUSITRONIC 6 Keyboard Organ once marketed to schools as a teaching tool for potential musical prodigies. There are 6 identical 4 1/2 octave organ keyboards, each one with its own volume button, 5 tone position switch, and a low/high balance switch. They are all attached to the main organ which controls which organ is to be played. Two control panels have color-coded on/off switches that match the knobs on each keyboard. Measuring 75" long, 31" wide, and 29" high, this organ has 4 smooth rolling wheels. When not in use, the organ can be easily folded up and neatly stored away.

This 6 Keyboard Organ is in good working condition. All of the keyboards work although there is some static due to dust; it is in need of a good potentiometer spray. Great for classroom or stage group use !! Awesome at a party !! This is an incredible unique piece of music history that would make a wonderful Christmas gift for the serious collector !! Please enlarge all photos for maximum viewing. Pick up only: Manhattan area or Kearny, NJ."

micromac-d with touch arpeggio and seq with NEXUS


Published on Dec 9, 2012 by macbethsynthesizers

"Here's an experiment that I did. I replaced one octave of touch keys that I'm working on on an old scrap SH101.....it works perfectly!....my next shot is to give the scrapper SH101 a full three octaves as opposed to the two and a half octave keybed. If this all works- the touch keyboard I'm going to do as a stand-alone will have this built is seq! The sequencer is driving the up and coming Micromac-D synthesizer and I also played here the prototype of the experimental NEXUS 1 analogue touch synthesizer!"

Paul Hartnoll Meets...!

Published on Dec 9, 2012

"Last Sunday, Paul Hartnoll from the great electronic band Orbital paid a visit for tea and a sandwich, and also to talk synths a play around with some new projects that I'm working on. Here we see him tweaking with the MacBeth NEXUS 1 prototype. All sounds are recorded to the camera mic, as opposed to the desk- so don't expect high quality. It was a fun day and I was a guest in the evening for a fantastic gig that featured the MacBeth M5N played by a master!"
