Synopsis:
Formed in 1969, Electronic Music Studios (EMS) quickly became innovators for the recording, production and advancement of electronic music. The ideas and designs that bubbled forth out of the ingenuitive minds of Peter Zinovieff, Tristram Cary, David Cockerell and others, led to the creation of some of the most wildly original musical / sound design equipment ever conceived. The VCS3, Synthi A + AKS, Synthi 100, Synthi E, Synthi Logik and the Soundbeam are among these,
almost unworldly, devices.

It is often said EMS gear has attained cult status, reaching a fervor of near worship among its users. The Synthi Group is an example and collection of such users. United through the Synthi blog and forum (www.thesynthi.de) and located throughout the world, the group's members have come together for a planned series of compilation volume releases where the individuality and approach of each member towards their EMS instrument is showcased and broadcasted for all to experience. The listener will hear wildly different examples of styles and sounds that this original, and oft times, vintage equipment can create.

EMS were true pioneers from the very beginning, always looking beyond the culture and times they were surrounded and seemingly trapped in. Still around today, thanks to Robin Wood and Ludwig Rehberg, they are one of the few companies involved with electronic instrument production that have had a continued run since their inception. The Synthi Group have honed the original pioneering spirit and DIY ethic of EMS with their Volume series, a collection of sounds encompassing beautiful dreamscapes, synaesthetic visions, dark ambience, aural abstractions, sonic absurdities, pulsating analog, glitch, ring modulators, and envelope shapers generating trapezoidal geometry. Beginning with Volume 1, the Synthi Group compilations aim to ensure the story of EMS continues well into the future of electronic music production.

New EMS SYNTHI Style Portabella Synth Coming from Pin Electronics

Portabella sound preview - Sync for 4 pins

Published on Feb 27, 2017 Pin Electronics & Ramcur

"The Portabella by Pin Electronics available 3rd quarter 2017.

http.//www.wp.thesynthi.de"

Update: video is back. This originally went up at 6:55 PM today. Moving this up so you don't miss it.

Curious how this one will differ from their Hornets pictured below. Aside from the obvious color scheme, you can see the panel layout is different. I added a screenshot of the video above directly below for comparison. Note the "Random Voltage Generator" section above Oscillator 1 in the Portabella. You can click the image of the Hornets below for a larger version. It's set to open in a new tab so you can tab back and forth to compare. You can find previous posts on the Hornet via the Pin Electronics label below.
