I cleaned up your post a bit - made the link a "click here" and enabled BBCODES.

This is very rare. Nice for a collector.

It has indeed very cool looks, but the price is not at all realistic, would probably be for a Synthi AKS with the keyboard and sequencer.

I know the little thing from way back. The Synthi E was an 'educational' synth and thus very, very simple. The suggested price might be ok for a collector, as it has cute looks and is relatively rare, but for musical purposes it is imho wááy overpriced.

Hiya Rob! (and welcome back Mosc :) )

It's interesting that it once had a reserve price- but now thats gone- and it's being relisted. :roll:

£1500? Well that's a lot of money- but there were only 300 made?- according to the seller- so it is rare. Who knows? Maybe someone is prepared to fork out that kind of money for one?

Isn't the AHD generator in the NM 1 and G2 a trapezoid generator? I did like the modulation sound the EMS one made- I'm surprised however that hardly no one else did another version (I did however like Dave Peck's take)

Thanks Smile I sometimes like to have BBCODES on and sometimes not- it all depends what kind of mood I'm in or whether I remember or not.

But Mosc, haven't you got better things to do? Rolling Eyes Laughing !!

One thing I need to tell you about (Mosc) is using emotions (why are the called 'emoticons'???) and other functions in this 'post reply' window. It's highly irritating that these functions don't go where the cursor is- instead they always go at the end of whatever is being written. Often I have to cut'n'paste them in order to move them around. Do you know what I'm getting at/ mean?

Tom

Perhaps he (the seller) has seen the Sound Lab and realises that christmas is on the way- and the soundlab will do all the things the Synthi E will do- but only costs £75 ?!? :roll:

-right thats the last post on this topic!

I think it depends on the browser you use: Safari on a Mac behaves like you say, IE on a PC does not Idea

Carlo is right. This is one place where IE is better than the others. The people who write the forum software are aware of this problem and have been trying to get the Mozilla people to fix this.
