“The Synare 3 is an iconic synthesizer drum pad made by Star Instruments for 77-82. It’s been famously used by Joy Division, Devo, The Cars and just about every reggae sound system on earth as an FX unit. It was two oscillators, a noise generator and a resonant low pass filter, that makes a whole range of iconic tones: bleeps, bloops and deep bass tones. Run through a long delay this thing rules the airwaves!
I’ve personally owned this about 15 years now, originally purchased as part of a sound system I was building: Jored Preamp, NJD Sirens, cabinets and such but I’ve moved onward in life and it’s time for this to go to someone who wants the real thing. It’s in perfect working order, the pads in great used condition with only minor wear, and all the knobs work correctly. The labeling for the knobs has a couple of segments of minor de-lamination (as seen in photos) which could easily be reset with a dab of glue.” Click here to visit listing on eBay
