"THIS IS AN ITALIAN EKO SYNTH - CIRCA 1979. IT IS A VERY RARE PRE-SET SYNTH.
It is in full working order there is a little crackle to one or two of the pots, not all that noticeable and easily sorted with some contact cleaner.
Some tremendous sounds are to be had from this machine, huge fat basses, big whomping sounds, nice leads. The presets sound nothing like the I streets they are supposed to represent, who wants it to sound like a pan pipe anyway!
The P15 is monophonic and totally analog. Although it says "Digital System" on the front panel, this only refers to the underlying circuitry inside using some (at the time) modern integrated circuit chip technologies in place of traditional transistor based technology for a more stable result. The signal path is still entirely analog from start to finish, and the result is very warm sounding."

EKO Ekosynth P15 Italian Analogue Synthesizer
via this auction - video at the auction and previously posted here.
"This is a great synth and has been used by many respectable electronic musicians. It can recreate Moog and 'Look Around You' tunes very nicely. It has adjustable 24dB resonant filter, VCA and LFO sections. You can use them to achieve a very interesting and unique sonic pallete. Another great thing about this synth is it is built into it's own carry case (lid included) So it is portable and not (too) heavy should you wish to gig with it."

Eko Synth P15 vintage Italian analogue synthesizer demo
Eko Synth P15 vintage Italian analogue synthesizer demo (no talking), HD
YouTube Uploaded by RobsSynths on Jan 10, 2012
"Complete and in depth video demonstration to what this synthesizer can do.
First I show you the presets,
LFO section (1:15),
VCF (4:14
VCA (6:29).
I then take you through some sounds it makes (7:19) and then with an added delay effect (12:28).
Built 1979
Uses basic electrical components. No Chips. Proper analogue.
It has two basic envelopes - one for VCF and one for VCA.
One LFO which can modulate VCO, VCF and VCA. It can go very fast.
Filter is really nice and fat and can self oscillate.
Has a choice of wave shapes using the presets but then you can change the rest of the sound yourself.
Intro music made just from this synth.

Vintage analogue synthesizer Eko Ekosynth P15 "Digital System"
YouTube via booksforsaleATebid | August 07, 2009 |
"I think this synthesizer was manufactured in 1979.
Although described by the manufacturer as a "digital system", it is an analogue synthesizer. The 'digital' refers to the type of circuitry employed i.e. silicon chips rather than transistors - so I am told.
The audio is to give you an idea of what the synthesizer is capable of, even though it seems to have a number of faults - you can read more about this on ebid.net, ( http://uk.ebid.net/stores/booksforsale ) go there and enter the following search terms: Eko P15
You will of course realise that I am no musician, that is not the purpose of the audio, I just want you to hear what the synth can do. There are no effects, it is totally dry, apart from a little compression.
It reminds me of the early Roland synthesizers in look and sound.
This synthesizer is rare. It will be an excellent project for anyone who likes to get these 'old dears' back to how they were in the land of Kraftwerk, Gary Numan and Ultravox."

"This is an original 1979 suitcase synth made by Eko, better known for organs and guitars. Due to the companys organ background its got a great keyboard feel. It sounds brilliant with really present and deep oscillators that are massively tweakable from all the knobs and sliders, ranging from subbed out to lfo madness., a completely different sound to say Roland synths. Obviously pretty rare, this one is in good condition having just been serviced. This is an excellent and unusual bit of gear.
It says "digital system" on the front panel, but that refers to the fact that most of the circuitry consists of Integrated Circuits rather than indivudual components.There are 15 preset sounds (Hence, P15). You can play them as they stand, or switch the Voltage Controlled Filter (VCF), and Voltage Controlled Amplifier (VCA) into "manual" mode, and tweak the sound anyway you want. There is also a full LFO section, capable of affecting the Oscillator, and the Filter. (Wah Wah and Tremolo). The VCO functions can be delayed as well. (as per Roland Juno)!"
