Incredibly rare 1970's analogue synthesizer - the Crumar Brassman as used on legendary synth album 'Time Wind" by KLAUS SCHULZE.

It has a very spooky/strange sound - very old and mellotron like and also strangely medieval - really recalls sounds on Walter/Wendy Carlos 'switched on Bach' albums. It also reminds me a lot when you play long chords of the synths on Eno's album 'Before and After Science'".

Rare Vintage analogue synthesizer Crumar Brassman KLAUS SCHULZE

"Incredibly rare 1970's analogue synthesizer - the Crumar Brassman as used on legendary synth album 'Time Wind" by KLAUS SCHULZE.

First of two ebay demonstrations for the sale of this synth.

This is an incredibly fat sounding synthesizer ---with an enormous bottom end. Reminds me a lot of the Moog opus --- but just bigger!

It has a very spooky/strange sound - very old and mellotron like and also strangely medieval - really recalls sounds on Walter/Wendy Carlos 'switched on Bach' albums.

First demo I have plated into logic and added a little onboard phaser and delay.

Second demo - straight into logic with no fx.

Put this through a SmallStone Electro Harmnix phaser and you have all the classic solina/logan string synth type sounds ---but you also have that crazy huge bottom end - maybe because the designers have tuned it to create those brass like bass sounds .

Unusually for string synthesizer type keyboards this has a VCF votage controlled filter - with control of low pass filter and high pass filter and envelope of that filter. Labelled as ....attack/decay/emphasis/contour ... you can go very fat or very squelchy.

2 oscillators - labelled 16' and 8' ---which you can mix to differnet levels - or use seperately.

Has a very nice vibrato also with delay.

There are also quite a few other butons labelled
sax
glide
rag
delay attack
trombone muted 1 & 2
trumpet muted 1 & 2
horn muted 1 & 2

---these activate different elements of the filter and envelope.

"It is the musical instrument where very funny sound sounds. Noise is generated with the oscillograph."

"A synthesizer allowing control of pitch, shape, frequency/amplitude modulation and low-pass filter by hand-drawing of waveforms.

The screen has three areas; waveform drawing area, control selection, utility functions.

In the waveform drawing area you can drag your finger to change or draw a new shape that affects the sounds playing.

Control selection has eight options that control the sound -
Red: Primary waveform.
Orange: Primary frequency (i.e. the main melody).
Yellow: Secondary waveform (used as amplitude or frequency modulation of the first waveform, or as a second oscillator).
Green: Secondary frequency.
Cyan: Envelope (i.e. the volume shape for the playing sound).
Blue: Envelope frequency.
Purple: Mixer control, between the playing sound and any running loop.
Magenta: Low-pass filter cutoff frequency.

Utility functions are eight options that control how the waveform is edited and looping -
Draw: When this option is selected the waveform changes instantly as you draw it.
Slide: When this option is selected the waveform will slide from its current value to what you draw.
Line: When this option is selected the waveform will change a horizontal line at the point selected. On the Primary waveform (Red) this option is not allowed.
Sine: When this is pressed the waveform will become more like a sine wave.
Overtone: When this is pressed a 2nd harmonic will be added.
Soften: When this is pressed any rough edges on the current waveform will be softened
Record: Pressing this will start a loop being recorded. If Record is pressed again after starting to record an echo of the time between presses will be created.
Play: If Record has been pressed then pressing Play after it will create a loop of what was playing between the presses. If a loop is already playing, pressing Play again will stop it."

"Yamaha CS-70M sounds.

I think the synth has a class of its own. Can sound very close to the big brother Yamaha CS-80, and few other features are a bonus.

Check it out.

A little bit of Chorus provided by Eventide Eclipse

Thank you for watching"
