CatSynth pic: TOM-1501 Rare Soviet USSR Vintage Analog Synthesizer

Via matrixsynth:

Judging from the cat and early 1970s decor, it’s from the same source as yesterday’s post.

“Tom-1501- 61-note (F-F) string / brass / piano multi-keyboard. This one reminds Crumar multi-keyboards. Nearly all controls on sliders on sloping back panel. Splittable. Vibrato depth, speed. Brass filter AR, resonance and cutoff. Preset sounds, mixable, include piano, clavinet, orchestra (violin, alto, contrabass), brass. Chorus. Piano has separate out. Made at the Tula factory. “

You can see more photos and information on this rare Soviet instrument on the original post at matrixsynth.

  1. Wonder if the keyboard still works (if this was from the 70’s or early 80’s).

  2. The 70’s were a colourful time!!!!
    Machines were bigger too 😉
    Cats have not changed much!!! 🙂

  3. I love how the cat is peeking out on that top photo. And such a pretty, inquisitive cat! I don’t know how you manage to find all these cat synth photos!
