350 Computer - Sequencer |
| Description |
Rare and interesting early sequencer from PPG.
Has some quirks, but works fine and has some excellent features. Here's Lucid Sound's informal report after servicing it:-
'There were a few 'anomolies' with this, and
very little info available on the web, but I've got it to a good useable state.
It really is quite an innovative device. There are some great features here, like the ability to invert the notes in a sequence just by pressing a button, or 'immediate playback' where the sequence repeats what you've just
played as soon as you lift fingers off keyboard (takes some explaining but it's good, trust me). Two transpose modes, immediate (waits until the end
of the current note) or delayed (waits until the end of the loop) - brilliant.
There is a sync in/out, which is a high frequency audio clock, so you can sync to tape, or as I did, use a VCO to control the speed of the sequence (great with an EMS).
It's 1V/Octave out, positive trigger.
A few strange things though: The 'manual' (translated and brief) says pressing middle C starts a sequence or any other key to transpose - not on this one, bottom C is no transpose, all other keys transposing up.
There is a Gate output. This works from the keyboard but not from the recorded sequence even though the trigger output does - however even the guy
who wrote the simplified manual that's avaailable online says, and I quote:
'there is no word HOW and what these trigger modes are (sorry!)'
It'll also do real time recording, and there's a whole load of editing stuff (timing and pitch changes etc).
In really nice cosmetic condition too.
