syn-fi:

Bit99 from Crumar.  A rare italian synth with analog filters and digitally controlled oscillators.  Not sure how many of these are out there but there variations in the form of the BitOne, Bit01 and a rack version.   There are no knobs and you have to control the various functions by calling up an address (input a no.) and then modifying the value.  Thankfully there is a legend, screen-printed prominently on the panel of the synth.   There is a sample of how it sounds on my soundcloud account: http://snd.sc/10q00Kz

Spring weather brings a touch of chaos to the conservatory, and a chance for some fun. (at Suny Purchase College Conservatory Of Dance)
