EMS SYNTHI HI-FLI PROTOTYPE 1 of 10 *Serviced* David Gilmour Guitar Synth

via this auction
"A very rare prototype Synthi Hi-Fli, dating from 1972, in excellent condition following a full overhaul by EMS earlier this year.
One of only ten pre-production units made in 1972. David Gilmour reputedly still owns two of them…
Ultra-rare prototype EMS Synthi Hi-Fli – this is a knob-twiddler’s dream of an effect and the ultimate in hens’ teeth: your guitar will never sound the same again.
Different sound and spec to a standard Hi-Fli – this is the second such unit we’ve had and it broke my heart to sell the last one (I’ve been a committed HiFli nut since I bought my first one many years ago and have always had at least one in the studio ever since).
The prototypes don’t have the growl function, which was introduced about 18 months later. Production Hi-Flis all have the Buzz switch, but only the first ten prototypes had the Fuzz switch, which adds some interesting colouration to the up and down-octave sounds.
Ten production prototype Hi-Flis were made in 1972 but a redesign quickly followed the launch at the Frankfurt Fair to try to reduce the factory cost (the prototype design is not especially ergonomic for a guitar player to use – you have to lean back somewhat to access the pedals underneath the main unit). This original design features a removable aluminium pole which plugs into the underside of the main console and the top of the base unit, acting both as a stand and a conduit for power and signal connections (pole not included with this unit). The heavy-duty nylon-dipped base houses the power supply and sturdy twin pedals.
Dave Gilmour of Pink Floyd is reputed to still have two of these original units, which, according to Phil Taylor were first used for the Dark Side of The Moon tour that started in May 1973 at Earls Court. Opinion is divided as to whether a Hi-Fli featured on the DSOTM recordings: I can only say that it certainly sounds like it did.
Number one in Analogman Tom’s list of rare guitar effects from his excellent book.
Used by David Gilmour – see this Gilmourish blog for further details – he bought a prototype in 1972 and from what he recalls it was “very, very expensive”; Gilmourish also suggest it was used during the recording of Dark Side Of The Moon

Friday Fun - Nifty Case Modular Synth Jam
Published on Nov 1, 2019 sonicstate
"This time, we got hold of one of the new Cre8audio Nifty Case Bundle. Its an 85HP Eurorack case with up to 2.5A of power, a built-in 2 channel USB/MIDI interface, audio output. You also get a couple of modules - Chipz, a digital chiptune style sound source with two multi-wave oscillators - 1 has a filter, 2 has a width control, and a dual output LFO. Cellz - an interesting sequencing module with a 16 pad offset grid - it has two sequencers, and two directions of travel.
I filled the rest of the space up with the Fullsome Clouds, Pittsburgh Oscillator (not used here), Pittsburgh Mixer/Attenuator and the Doepfer A-111-5 Mini Synth voice. Hooked up via MIDI to the Arturia Keystep.
The Nifty Case Bundle is available now ($259) from Cre8audio.com"

After successfully completing the campaign on indiegogo.
I seriously improved Muscarin and started production.
There were difficulties and mistakes, but fortunately all obligations have been met.

All summer I building and sent devices to backers, and there were no news or updates.
But now I have time, and I started working on new demos
it's important

Estimated time for sending synthesizers is January 2020.
The cost of the desktop version is 380$ + shipping.

To start working we need 4 devices confirmed by payment.
Important! I already have boards and a third of parts, this should coolly reduce the manufacturing time."

Korg Poly-61 | A Raw and Beautiful Synth | 64 NEW PATCHES BY ESPEN KRAFT
Published on Nov 1, 2019 Espen Kraft
"The Korg Poly-61, released in 1982 as the follow-up to the PolySix. Many consider the Poly-61 inferior to the PolySix, because it sounds so basic, but that is also its strenght. Sounds from this just blend in so well with other sounds and especially for Italo Disco and early, more raw type of synthpop.
I love this synth just for its raw and unpolished sound.
I've created 64 new patches that can be loaded into this synth to get that raw feeling going. These sounds can be bought and downloaded here:
