[sdiy] FBT synther-2000

[Guy Drieghe D.]

My first synth -- back in the 18th century -- was a Synther 2000.
Back then, novice et all, I wasn't even aware it was such a 
peculiar synth... all I remember was that it had this weird "repeat" 
switch, which could make ehm, rhythm... To me, at that time, it 
was the coolest contraption on earth... 
Little did I know. (it sounded awful - *that* I remember)

Fast forward a few decades, trying to find any more info
about it... resulting in: zilch. It's like the thing never existed.

Not much of any help, heh ? Sorry.
