You can find some info on the Circular Clavier in French here, Googlish here.
You can see it at :44 in the video further below.
Be sure to see the comments in this post below. Word is this is not real.
Am I reading it right €1,000,000 ?! I regard myself as one of his biggest fans (don't we all!) but it'll never sell at that price.
ReplyDeleteDo they have a typing error there with the ZEROS ??? 1 MIO Euro - this a a very bad joke - imagine what kind of VINTAGE you can buy for 1 MIO Euro ???? I mean this is realy very wrong idea .....why not donate it to a Museum ?
ReplyDeleteThis is fake ! This piece of wood for almost USD 1.5 Million - can somebody explain what this thing really is doing besides some fancy effect shown on the Jarre video.
ReplyDeleteSorry to say that also the presenter in the video looks not very trustworty - so you want to buy this THING - he will send it with UPS after your payment via paypal ???? Better check with Mr Jarre first - this looks like a scum. And can we see some performance of this "thing". I meanwhile feel sometimes a little bit ashamed what kind of rubbish is offered as "vintage" just using some famous peoples name - but the product cannot stand or is even FAKE ! Cheers ..............
It's just a gimmicky midi controller too (like the laser harp).... not a real synth.... and I can not believe anyone would by that at one million Euro. Unless, of course, they just happen to have it as pocket change... just sitting in thier pocket burning a whole in it. LOL
ReplyDeleteabsolutely awesome!! I remember the Kraftwerk's original vocoder on ebay went for $12,500, but was a cool historic piece and...a valid instrument as look and features.
ReplyDeleteIf this is not a fake... what could be the Keith Emerson's Hammond quotation price? Ah..yes I forgot that It's reduced in pieces ;-)
What i really don't understand is that you don't even see 1 second of the "synth" in action at this storage place..?!?
ReplyDeleteFor 1 mil. euro i at least would like to see some live action before i would even burn this absurd amount of money.
€1mil? WHOSE RESPONSIBLE THIS?
ReplyDelete£1,000,000 he will play for me privately for that
