Synthesizers and Samplers

MS-1-RD

Analog Synthesizer with 32 Full-Size Keys,

3340 VCO with 4 Simultaneous Waveforms,

VCF, NovaMod FM Sources, 32-Step Sequencer,

Arpeggiator and Live Performance Kit

Ondioline

In

the

late

1930s,

French

musician

Georges

Jenny

invented

what

he

called

the

Ondioline,

a

monophonic

electronic

keyboard capable of generating a wide range

of sounds. The keyboard even allowed the

player to produce natural-sounding vibrato by

depressing a key and using side-to-side finger

movements. You can hear the Ondioline on

Del Shannon’s “Runaway”.

A Brief History of

Analog Synthesis

The modern synthesizer’s evolution

began in 1919, when a Russian physicist

named Lev Termen (also known as

Léon Theremin) invented one of the

first electronic musical instruments –

the Theremin. It was a simple oscillator

that

was

played

by

moving

the

performer’s hand in the vicinity of the

instrument’s antenna. An outstanding

example of the Theremin’s use can be

heard on the Beach Boys iconic smash

hit “Good Vibrations”.
