1980's Roland Linear Arithmetic E-10 - SYNTHESIZER - synth keyboard piano

$110.00

For Sale: Pretty rare synth from around 1988. Made in Italy.

Works well and sounds excellent- all the keys are good as are all the buttons, switches, LEDS, sounds, functions, demo songs, etc.

One nice thing about this keyboard is that it has it's own amplifier and stereo speakers - there are jacks on the back so you can plug in other keyboards and instruments to it to use the speakers. It sounds excellent with no distortion or hum, can get pretty loud.

The tones are generated by Linear Arithmetic process and there are some pretty unique sounds. There are lots of instruments, reverbs, drums, rhythms, patterns, to play around with. MIDI in/out/through jacks on the back.

Some minor wear, not bad. The slider knobs for the volume and tempo are missing but they still work fine without them. When I first got this a few months ago all the keys worked but one or two sounded at full volume even if you pressed them lightly so I sprayed some contact cleaner on them and they worked normally. So far issue hasn't returned but ideally you will clean (or have cleaned professionally) the contacts internally under the keyboard membrane- it's a common issue with older synths and not difficult to do if you are handy and can follow online instructions/videos.

Note: power cord is included, had to slightly modify a standard cord so it would work- doesn't fit as tightly as original but works fine and is safe.
