Expand and preserve your beloved Synthi

"Synthi 2" interface for interconnecting two Synthis

synthi2I did this interface in a spare dark grey Spartanite case that a friend found in his grandmother's house.
It interconnects 2 Synthis thanks to the prestopatch slots.

I designed the front panel and had it manufactured by Schaeffer AG, quick and professional work.

Features :
  • room and PSU for up to 8 eurorack modules
  • 2 switchable inverters
  • 1 signal amplifier with variable gain
  • 3 attenuators connected in series like Moog 995
  • 2 passive multiples 
  • 2 buffered active multiples
  • 36x36 Ghielmetti matrix
  • 2 prestopatch slots

Here's a sound sample, 2 Synthi A's interconnected, no sequencer was used, only other device is a Korg SE-500 Stage Echo. Recorded live in one take, no postproduction.





I had to add  a prestopatch slot to my Synthi A MKI.

To preserve its original pin park, a new one was done with a piece of wood and an aluminium plate.
