Synthex s/n 1543 (built-in MIDI) |
Description |
A great example of one of the absolute classics: a late-model Synthex, checked and serviced ready for this auction. Being a low-volume production item, the Synthex went through a few revisions before Elka mistakenly gave up on it because of lack of commercial success. Originally without MIDI, this was first added as a rather awkward breakout box using a 15-pin computer interface. A later version had the MIDI sockets on a metal plate set in to the right of the computer interface, and the final version had the MIDI IN OUT and THRU fitted to the actual back panel of the synth, and did away with the 15-pin interface. This is the version in the auction, serial number 1543 - a very late example, and arguably the best version of all. It's in really nice cosmetic condition: as usual, the large wooden end cheeks aren't perfect, but the panel and keys are beautiful. Serviced in early 2025 ready for this auction. UK / Euro voltage - we'd prefer it if you provide your own IEC lead, as that is one less thing to cause damage in transit. We'll pack with extreme care if this is couriered: 36GBP. |
