Beautifully-produced second volume of Matthias Becker’s authoritative ‘Synthesizers of the Past’ book – in German, but with so many superb illustrations that it’s hardly necessary to read the text. New, unused, still sealed. The photos were taken of another copy of the book.
Too many highlights to mention all, but the book covers such absolute classic synths as the Trautonium, ARP 2500, EMS Synthi 100, E-mu Modular, Steiner-Parker Synthacon, RMI Harmonic Synthesizer, Birotron, PPG 1002, Moog Taurus and Liberation, Roland System 700, Synlab Modular, Roland SH-7, Crumar DS-2, Korg Sigma, ARP Quadra, Roland RS-505 and VP-330, Fairlight CMI, Realton Variophon, Oberheim OB-Xa, Xpander and OB-SX, Gleeman Pentaphonic, RSF Kobol, Emulator 1, Synergy, Roland SH-101, TB-303, TR-606, MC-202, Jupiter 6, Syntec Banana, SCI Prophet T8, OSCar……… an incredible roster which would (in the beautiful condition they are in the photos) probably now be worth over half a million US dollars.
All with superb photos by Dieter Stork. Hardback, beautifully printed on very high quality paper, bound to the highest standards. A coffee-table book which is also a superb source of information. The Rolls-Royce (OK, Mercedes) of synth literature. (I should know – I produced the Ford Fiestas of the genre.)
ISBN 3927954012, printed in 1995.
(In response to many requests, I’m sorry, I don’t have copies of Volume 1 of Synthesizer von Gestern. They are very difficult to find and always seem to be sold for over 100GBP if they ever appear. I just have my own copy, which I won’t sell even for 200GBP.)
