"This classic behemoth has had many, many hours put into it to bring it back to its former glory. If you're looking for a Quadra, I think this one is well worth considering as it is now a fully working, reliable synth with a lot of care and attention put into it.
I will purchase a FLIGHT CASE for this synth prior to shipping, at my cost.
Work Carried out:
Complete power supply rebuild (including all new regulators and capacitors)
COMPLETE polarized capacitor replacement throughout the ENTIRE synth (all tants and electrolytics)
ARP Filter modules removed and re-capped (using audio grade caps in the filter audio path)
Brand new Keyboard control PCB fitted (battery damage had ruined the original board)
Brand new Memory backup battery fitted (average 20-25 year life span)
Extensive Logic chip replacement.
Keybed stripped, chassis painted and keys re-bushed (feels like new again)
All sliders and switches completely stripped, cleaned, re-lubricated (and replaced with NOS where needed)
Brand new set of slider knobs fitted
Full Calibration
This synth will also be supplied with a beautiful (and extremely rare) original bound service manual (see photos)
The not so great:
The touch sensitive bar that runs underneath the keybed is not as sensitive as it probably once was, if this bothers you there are a couple of vendors out there that sell replacements.
There are a few scuffs and blemishes (see photos)
A dent in the bottom of the enclosure at the back of the synth (see photo)"

"It has been fully serviced & upgraded including recapping the power supply and voice board, replacement of the 4558 dual op amps and installing the essential top 4 band (17-20) modification to improve speech recognition."
"This is a great sounding synth! It's digital but sounds very analog - wide and fat with a smooth filter. The FM and wavetable oscs add a lot of variety to the sound and there is a free USB editor to help navigate the editing (although the knobs provided work very well with a few taps you can get to just about any parameter). It was discontinued and for anyone looking for a well-built and unique digital synth in a small format, this is a great choice.
Please note that the MID keyboard pictured is not included with the sale but will be listed separately. It's a good match for the synth and looks unique!"
"Here we take a look at the simple setup process for syncing the VCV version of Pamela's PRO Workout to a DAW via our free Pam Sync Plugin or VCV's built in MIDI to CV module.
This process should work with any DAW but requires the pro version of VCV Rack for use as a plugin within your DAW.
*Note the sample rate must match between both VCV and the DAW for sync to work properly.
Pam Sync is a FREE simple ‘just works’ DAW plugin for syncing Pam to your DAWs clock via low latency audio signals. It uses 2 audio (i.e. stereo) channels to provide a ‘DIN sync’ type signal consisting of a clock and a run signal to be patched into the Pam’s ‘Clk’ and ‘Run’ inputs. Once connected Pam will stop and start with your DAW and match the tempo.
The plugin should work with any DAW that supports VST or Audio Units. See the README.txt in the download for more setup documentation.
Pam Sync is available now as a free download for both Windows and Mac. Get it here:

"Introducing a ripple of both past and present. The e25 Remix Edition is a limited run of silver-faced Digitakt, Digitone, and Syntakt machines; a time hack to disorientate, reorientate, and deliver you to bliss. Inspired by yesteryear, these boxes are hell-bent on pulling your sounds through the veil of possibility and into reality. In recognition of a quarter century of Elektron existence, and to celebrate everyone we’ve met along the way, we have included a number of special additions to accompany this extra-special edition."
Introducing a time hack to disorientate, reorientate, and deliver you to bliss. In recognition of a quarter century of existence, we have dreamt up the e25 Remix Edition: a limited run of silver-faced units, spread across Digitakt, Digitone, and Syntakt. Inspired by yesteryear, and hell-bent on pulling your sounds through the veil of possibility and into reality.
The e25 Remix Editions don't just come with special versions of already unique music-making machines. We have included a number of other special additions to accompany your extra-special edition.
The instruments themselves are hand-built in stainless steel, individually numbered and bearing laser-etched logos. The box too is unique in its design and build, containing e25 poster versions, and a multiple decade-covering/greatest hits sticker sheet. And the e-shaped cherry on top is a special Remix Edition cassette tape featuring an hour of original and eclectic music from the Elektron Team.
Released in 2017, Digitakt splashed down as a compact sampling drum machine capable of summoning monstrous beats or delicately layered sample-scapes, breaking your creative boundaries wide open. Since then, we have added a succession of new and exciting features to its repertoire, making it even more super-powered year after year.
Digitone followed on the heels of its sibling in 2018, continuing the Digi line with its innovative and accessible take on FM synthesis, and as a prime source of new sounds and timbres. With it, you can create rich and enchanting tones with ease, diving from jagged chaos to mellow sonic suppleness, seemingly emanating from a parallel universe. Regular creativity and performance-focused feature additions have continued Digitone's sonic trajectory.
Coming in 2022, Syntakt may be the youngest of the three but it’s jam-packed with possibilities and loaded with powerful sound-exploring tools. Analog and Digital synthesis. Drum and melody. They're here in full fusion. Syntakt’s various percussive and melodic machines make for an adventurous playground, and even though it’s only been out a little over a year, more machines have already arrived. And more will follow.
All instruments have been handcrafted in stainless steel here in Sverige. The faceplates have been brushed to give them their own unique finish, with no two units identical in appearance, while the logo and limited edition number on the front panel are laser-etched. Each box is adorned with silver foil highlights, created with vintage machinery in the very capable hands of local printers.
We also have a specially produced T-shirt to clothe yourselves in e25 Remix Edition goodness. It’s limited numbers for a limited edition. And available exclusively from our webshop."
