"This is a collectors grade example of one of the most iconic synthesizers ever made. Absolutely mint condition and as good as it'll get for such a historic little piece with a huge sound. This was Tom's first go at making a come back and not even owning the rights to his own name yet. This was a very small production and he made sure it was done right. No digital nonsense to get in the way or to go wrong. This will last a few lifetimes like the original SEM's did. This was kept in its original box and essentially unplayed for most of its life so far. The knobs feel great and all the jacks are mint condition. Perfect complement to any modular set up or any poly synth with CV outs that need a strong mono analog complement (most of them dont do mono as well as this can). One of the best mono synths period and factory fresh. Pairs really nice with a Arturia key step or cv sequencer as well."

ETI International 4600 Vintage Semi-Modular Synthesizer
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this listing
"This is a large semi-modular synthesizer, designed in Australia and released as a kit by Electronics Today International magazine in 1973. The large aluminium panel pivots forward for maintenance. Its 22x22 matrix switchboard, joystick, complex modulation and feature set is reminsicent of a larger EMS VCS3, a comparison enhanced by the use of genuine Cliff "little Dalek" knobs.
The main modules in the 4600 design were repackaged for the (smaller) ETI 3600 and the lightly larger Maplin 5600 kit synthesizers. Its notable features are volts-per-herz VCOS (rather than volts-per-Octave linear VCOs), complex Transient Generators that are like simple three stage sequencers, and a different-sounding VCF.
This is a rare, powerful and unique synthesizer that needs some TLC from a competent builder to unlock its potential.
STORY
In the early 80s before it had been completely built, it suffered damage (the plaster ceiling collapsed on it, because of a shoddy repair job after the previous tenants, a punk gang, had a "demolition party" that destroyed all internal walls). The keyboard was destroyed and there seemed little reason to replace it (the first 4600 keyboard circuitry was problematic and had been replaced by a design from the Fairlight team.) There was some scratches to the case and a lot of dust, though the pots did not seem scratchy.

4ms Meta Module - SonicLAB Review
video upload by sonicstate
"Many have tried to create this kind of platform taking software Eurorack or DSP synthesis from the desktop such as VCV Rack and running that code in a Eurorack hardware module. 4ms are up for the challenge - essentially you get a DSP module able to run some VCV rack modules (160 and counting) - the list is growing - but be sure to check the latest one.
Meta has 2x gate inputs, 6 audio/CV inputs, 8 audio/cv outputs and 12 assignable knobs to freely control the modules you built in it. With USB-C and SD Card storage, you can edit the setups adding modules and control until you run out of DSP, which will happen eventually - thats just the way it it.
You can create patches on the unit itself, with a well thought out UI for adding modules, routing and knob and connection assignments - though inevitably it can get a little clicky, its impressively well done.
Paulee Bow aka @magicalsynthadventure3216 takes a look for SonicLAB and finds it can do quite a lot... Available now priced at $649/£569 street"
