ETI 4600 International - Maplin Edition
This is a 1973/74 Analog Synthesiser. A full description is here taken from another website (I can remove this if anyone takes exception):
"The for runner to the mighty 5600s,has the same 4 osc's,but has 2 multi mode (lp,bp,hp)filters,these are 12db and lack reso.but do have a unique character,the filter circuit can be modified to the specs of the powerful 24db resonant filters found in the 5600s without too much trouble,Ive got one of each in my unit,the 4600 has a slightly smaller 22x22 patch matrix ala Ems pin board so modulation and patching options are mind boggling, it also has 5 mixers,2 ring modulation amps,lfo,switchable noise 2transient and envelope gens.,it has2 external inputs so out side sounds can be procesed,as well as its old spring rev,and a multiband EQ.it lacks the 5600s nice phaser though, All in all a truely massive synth,if well made easily gives the arp 2600,ems or smaller moog mods a kick up the ossc,especially with one of the 2 filter mod to 24 db res type.
Comments About the Sounds:
with 4 osc,can sink any arp moog."
I've used this from time to time and the elements that don't seem to respond are as follows:
The joystick
Envelope Control Panel - Hold Level and delay switches slide (loose inside pots?)
Transient 1 - Hold level delay slides
Transient 2 - Hold delay slides.
Reverb slides
Phones dial slides.
Where I've said slides/slides I mean there's no real purchase when turning the dial.
All else seems fine so I'd say 85% working.
The power on the back has been professionally rewired to UK standard with the appropriate plug. Powers up fine. It has been stored in a good clean environment, smoke free.
Postage: This synth weighs 23.5 kg. I would highly recommend this as a pickup item, if the winner wants the item sent by courier or the delivery method of their choice then I would have to suggest they organise this themselves for pick up to avoid any pricing problems. If you can collect this yourselves I would suggest this to be the best option.
Any other questions or extra pictures requested please ask. I would also suggest looking on google for further information on this item as there's a lot to know!
Thanks, and happy bidding
