"Absolutely new. A true museum piece (currently stored in museum depot in The Netherlands). Has been
kept in flight case for many decades (but has been regularly serviced). Absolutely new (even keys look untouched/not played. Sounds very rich and incredibly warm. Extremely low noise levels. Yamaha only made 140 DX1 in 1983-1985 as ultimate showcase of FM synthesis. The DX1 (not this unused one) was used on various hit records in the 80's. Think; Brothers in Arms (Dire Straits), Human Nature (Michael Jackson), Pet Shop Boys, Kraftwerk, Toto et cetera.

According to experts it will be almost impossible to find another DX1 in this condition (maybe 3-5 in this condition in this world still exist). The history of this instrument was also checked and approved. This instrument is pricey, but is regarded as a solid investment (further price increase expected).

Current valuation according to acknowledged appraiser:

Insurance value: 250,000 Euros. Executional value : 175,000 Euros.

Listing price: 149,000 Euros.

Valuation report, documentation, further DX1 background information (Yamaha was also contacted),
expert interviews re. value/price development available on request.

This is a private sale, but proceeds will go to NGO. Location of instrument is Amsterdam, The
Netherlands.

For USA and other countries: shipping, customs and other taxes are not included (comes in flight case,
including cartridges)

Thought this was an interesting shot with the mic framed above the flower.

"The new microKORG S features a built-in 2+1 speaker system with power that far exceeds its size. Its body sports an elegant white motif, and features new presets that represent the sounds of a new generation. Beneath the microKORG S’s sophisticated exterior hides a sound engine both brutal in strength and universal in application."

"Functions well

Received this in trade and do not have the finished module, so I'm unsure how close this is to the final model, appears on the surface to have one less input of modulation and a simpler display.

Currently behind a 19" metal panel to allow for standard rackmounting but could be easily adapted to a custom case. Connects via an included header adapter to standard Eurorack power"

RSF Kobol Expander I and II

"The rack version of the RSF Kobol with a great sounding and very snappy SSM filter.
The Kobol Rack (Expander I) was essentially only the VCO/VCF/VCA/LFO sections of the Kobol in a rack module. The Expander 2 was an add-on to the Kobol that added some new processing modules such as ring modulation, sample-hold, andenvelope followers as well as extra VCA and LFO modules.

The Kobol looked and sounded great, andwas quickly snapped up by the big names in synthesizers of the time. But beinga small French company, RSF were never able to truly mass produce these.
About 800 Kobol Racks were made, 200 Expander 2's. This makes them quite rare!

They have been used by Vince Clarke,Vangelis, Jean-Michel Jarre, Depeche Mode, Peter Gabriel and Hans Zimmer.

The RSF Expander II rack mount modular synth was manufactured as a companionoption module for the Kobol Expander I synthesizer. The19" 3 U space unit features a Ring Modulator, Envelope, a VCA, an LFO,Mixer with 3 inputs and 1 output. Additionally it has a Sample & Holdmodule with internal or external clock, a Noise Generator, Voltage processorthat is delectable Linear or Logarithmic, Voltage Inverter, Gate Delay, anEnvelope Follower, Lag Generator, and finally 2 multiples."
