Vintage analogue synthesizer Eko Ekosynth P15 "Digital System" video

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 ie 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, ( uk.ebid.net ) 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.
