Tom Oberheim has reissued the classic SEM monophonic analog synthesizer expander module, and it’s now available via AudioMIDI.
Description:
Originally released in 1974, the SEM is one of the classic discrete analog synths, with a huge, three-dimensional “fat” tone. Oberheim’s reissue cuts no corners – the circuitry is almost identical to original units. The only component changes were made due to unavailable parts, but the great tone has not been affected. No digital voice circuits, or thin-sounding analog “voice chips” here- only genuine hi-fi fat analog goodness.
This version includes a panel with 33 direct-access patch points on 1/8″ jacks, transforming the SEM into a powerful “mini-modular” synthesizer. Not only does this allow tremendous voicing flexibility when used standalone, it allows easy interfacing with modular synthesizers or additonal SEM modules for limitless potential.
Pricing:
- Tom Oberheim Synthesizer Expander Module with Patch Panel – $789.00
- Tom Oberheim Synthesizer Expander Module with MIDI to CV Panel – $899.00
- Tom Oberheim Synthesizer Expander Module (SEM) Panel Only Version – $599.00
