EMS Pitch to Voltage Converter

"Nice unit with oiled afromosia case. Great history.
This was an EMSA unit. Electronic Music Studios of America, Amherst MA.
Dr. Everett Hafner's early EM studios.
Works well and is useful. Outputs 1V/OCT, interfaces well with Moog.
Pitch tracking is not up to tracking a guitar, but I found if you sequence something and play along with it (I use electric kalimba) you can get all sorts of dynamic effects from the envelope followers and filter tracking from the CV. Adds a cool layer of control. Missing one knob insert.
Leaving the offer button on, but not inclined to take less than I am asking."

"SAY SO": DOJA CAT Mini Cover On Legendary Korg Prophecy Synthesizer (1995 Model)

Microflat

"This video will demo the legendary 3-octave Korg Prophecy solo synthesizer (20 years old) by use of four default patches in a mini cover of Doja Cat's major 2020 hit 'Say So'. An extremely catchy summer song.

I used patch "A58 Logg Bass" for the bass, 'A46 Fe-Voice' for the subtle and oddly great dual-tone melody, "Prophetic Steps!" for the pad phrase, and "Circular Reason12" for the outro structure pattern. Tempo is 110 BPM.

Video clips were recorded in 4K (25 fps) on a Sony Cyber-shot DCS RX100 MK IV and edited in Adobe Rush.

Audio was recorded in 192 KHz 24 bit on a Universal Audio Arrow thunderbolt 3 interface and into Propellerhead Reason 9. All audio output effects are default Korg Prophecy patch FX."

This appears to be the one listed for sale here. Pics previously posted here.

"This video is demonstrating our PPG Wave 2.3.

We made a great effor to service this legendary machine.
What was done:
New LCD installed with LED backlight. This will make the display more readable and it will remove the hiss-noise from the audio that was generated by the old screen backlight.
Total re-cap. Changed all electrolytes. Some were original ROE caps there were long gone.
Complete cleaning of every part.
Keyboard re-build. Washing the keys and leveling them even.
Cleaned all the switches and potentiometers.

I am not a keyboard player but it will show how exciting even the presets are in this machine."
