via the seller: "This item used to belong to my wife’s cousin (RIP), who bought it a few years ago from a Japanese collector during one of his business trip to this country. The collector claimed that he purchased the synth directly from one of the engineers from the band during their tour in this country 17 years ago (1998)."

They are featuring the rare SYNTHI P model, just announced on the left side and stand. Underneath the board listing EMS musical artists is a SYNTHI HI-FLI effects unit is barely seen. Another unusual/prototype model is next to the Hi-Fli."
"TWIGGY is our new 2HP Dual Ring Mod. This Eurorack module uses AD633s to provide two clean and mathematically accurate 4-quadrant multipliers. These multipliers are DC coupled so they can process CV as well as audio. Since they are 4-quadrant multipliers they can be used as VCAs as well as CV-able attenuverters. Their anorexic size means they take up very little room in your rack.
This 2HP module has a maximum 20mA current draw (10mA +12V / 10mA -12V). Module depth is 49mm.
Special power cables to attach adjacent modules will be available. This will ensure you don't fill all your power connectors with 2HP cables.
"AXIS is our new 4HP guitar input module for the Eurorack modular synthesizer format which has a maximum 20mA current draw and a depth of 49mm. Featuring a 1/4" TS input, +/-15dB 3 band EQ, Volume knob, a 3.5mm modular level output, and an overload LED on the front panel. Set with a jumper on the main board, there are 2 gain settings for passive guitars and 1 setting for active guitars.
While the Axis clips nicely, we shot for transparency in hope that most people would want to process their guitar as they see fit with little distortion involved. We're happy to release what we think is a great solution for bringing guitars into the modular world.
AXIS is now available for purchase! Ask your local modular dealer to carry them if they're not in stock, or visit any of our current dealers: http://circuitabbey.com/WhereToBuy.html
Note this one was announced back in Jul of 2014. If you are a maker, be sure to reach out to me if your videos are not featured on the site. It likely means I was not aware of them.
