"28th October 2010

Preparations to re-establish production of the original Synthi A and VCS3 Mk2 have been proceeding through the summer and we are now expecting the first completed units to be ready in January 2011. Currently we are building a large stock of assembled and tested circuit boards. This has taken quite a bit longer than expected, but you can rest assured that we are dedicated to ensuring a successful outcome, as well as the re-introduction of other EMS products to follow in due course. A new website will also be unveiled in 2010.

Once we start shipping the Synthis it should be possible to give you an approximate delivery date, and we will certainly contact you to advise you as the time draws near.

Best wishes - Robin Wood"

It's true. Robin was telling me all about it. This is one of the (many) reasons I wanted the EMS cloners to ring Robin! Very Happy

Sure it will be. Behringer bought him out.
Complete with USB and digital outs for USD 199,-.
There is an optional analog downgrade for it for an additional USD 49.50

Some good news in from Derek Revell's site....

Quote:
After prolonged and careful legal consultation, I am at last able to offer for sale,The Phutney and Cynthi Z analogue synthesisers in the spirit of EMS traditions, but I will be actually producing units, and updating my website on a regular basis. I will be offering a digital sequencer in the style of a KS, but with 61 mechanical keys, and of course a dual voltage 61 keyboard without the sequencer. Please form an orderly queue. The company will be call S.M.E. as in Sage Music Electronics, and will be based in Biggleswade. Beds, U.K.


Hurrah! Nice one Derek! Very Happy Cool Very Happy
