looks like one eml101 to avoid.  plus, notice the extensive keyword spamming in the description.  this isnt yours, is it?

It does look a little too worked over. I'd be looking for some kind of
reassurance from the seller like a 2 week option to return it or
something. Anyone know if this lucite housing is factory issue? I seem to
remember hearing about such a thing but I don't recall if it was with EML.
Would have really been cool if the front was also clear but probably would
make it a little weak for frequently plugging in patch cables.

The idea of placing a lot of keywords in the description just seems like
smart eb*y selling to me, nothing really wrong with it as I see it. You
might notice I purposely placed a lot of variations on the words in the
description for this group so it might turn up more often when people are
searching Yahoo. Do you think this is an unethical thing to do?

EML 100 available

2002-02-05 by media@mail1.nai.net

I have an EML 100 that I am not using. Notice that it is not a 101. It's
not in good shape. There is some cosmetic damage, a resistor on the filter
needs to be replaced, and the selector switch for the LFO should probably
be replaced as well.

At this point in time it's simply taking up space. I don't have any
interest in fixing it myself. I'd rather spend my electronics time working
on new modules. Even if I were to fix the EML 100, it wouldn't fit into
the ergonomics of my studio -- I simply do not have room for it.

So I'm willing to sell it as is. I have little idea how much it is worth.
Even though it is quite rare, I'm thinking it has little collectors value
due to its cosmetic condition. I could be wrong, but I would rather sell
it to someone who will make use of it.

If anyone is interested, please let me know.

THANX!!

Hey media,

I've only seen one very poor xeroxed image of a 100. Any chance you could
post some images of it to the emlsynth archives ? or send them to me off
list and I will post them? Just from a historical standpoint I'd really
like to have some pictures of it here.

You could just take snapshots and scan them or if you have a digiatal
camera, even better....

TIA!

Mike B.

Does it work at all? I could probably fix the filter.
How much were you thinking of selling it for?

The last time I checked, it did, but I would be selling it as is.

>How much were you thinking of selling it for?

Honestly, I'm unsure of its worth, but I hear they are quite rare. It
would have to be a buyer who actually wants it for what it is, not a
fixer-upper alternative to an EML 101, which are much more common. I live
in Connecticut where these were made, and I've seen a number of 101's. (A
friend of mine was just given a 200 by a local school :) However, I've
only seen one other 100 in my life, and if my memory serves me correctly,
it was grey. The faceplate on this one is blue.

Afaik, it was the world's first duophonic/bitimbral synth.

Unfortunately, I don't have any sort of camera. Occasionally, I pick up
one of those disposable cameras, but they are terrible for taking
close-ups. However, if there are no pictures available, perhaps I should
make a point to borrow a camera before I sell it. Either that, or I'd have
to sell it someone who was willing to take its picture :)

It's a pretty rare bird and Iwonder if any other members here have ever
seen one. I've done websearches with no result. If you think of it, maybe
you could put the eventual buyer in touch with either me or this list. I'd
really like to try and get some pictures of it for the file/photo archives.

Thanks
