"Vintage 70's BROTHER AUTO EMILLION organ keyboard/synthesizer, made in Japan. features a wide range of sound options with both presets (Harpsichord, Marimba and Vibes); as well as user-controlled sounds via the separate mixers for Flute 8', Flute 4', Oboe and Violin. Additional controls are Vibrato and Sustain, along with various accompaniment options. Also included is a Rhythm Section/Drum Machine with a number of preset patterns which can be altered in Tempo and Output Volume in relation to the keyboard played sounds.

There is an onboard speaker, plus different input/output options on the back.

This unit is in excellent working order and very clean physical condition as pictured. It is a quality-built vintage portable organ - not a toy. The top and bottom casing panels are all metal, with plastic sides. The sounds are surprisingly good and the options are versatile for a range of uses - including stage. Dimensions of the organ itself are approx 76 x 30 x 10cm, and it weighs around 9kg"

You can find a video of one previously posted here.

Update via Joe McGinty in the comments: "Looks like a re-branded Baldwin Discoverer [posts here] (which is also very cool). Functions are exactly the same. Interesting."

Update2: you can also see one in this video with Tame Impala.

SN 2802044

"The DS-50 has 49 keys, 7 basic sounds, an accompaniment section enabling backing tracks to be used, and a great drum machine with 8 different rhythm styles.

Main three solo sounds are
Harpsichord
Marimba
Vibes

There are also four sliders labelled Flute 8' (8 Octave?), Flute 4', Oboe and Violin, and these can be used to adjust the tone and waveforms of the 3 main sounds, or be used to make replications of the appropriate sound e.g. Oboe.

There is also a Vibrato slider to adjust the sounds, a great little effect.

On the accompaniment section there is a Strum/Arpeggio feature which allows strum effects or bass Arpeggios to be played by the machine itself, using the Auto Play or 1-Finger buttons. This allows for great basslines to be played on the bottom 12 notes while leaving the rest of the keyboard for the Solo sound. There is also a 1-Finger chord button, and Record/Playback buttons.

On the Rhythm section there are 8 rhythm styles:
Country/March
Waltz
Swing
Ballad Rock
Disco/Rock
Bossa Nova
Rhumba
Samba

The Rhythm section has Tempo and volume adjust sliders, and has Start/Stop and touch control (pause) buttons."
