АЛИСА (Alisa) - 1377 - Vintage Soviet Analog Synthesizer (2)

FIRST OFF ALL I DON'T KNOW HOW TO PLAY IT, OK? WHAT I DO IS PLAYING WITH KNOBS SO BACK OFF...NEGATIVE COMMENTS WILL BE DELETED INSTANTLY.


This electronic musical synthesizer intends for signal's design of audible range of band with a possibility to play solo musical compositions. It can be used to create audio effects if connected to the outward acoustic device.

The synthesizer can be used as a non-standart electric signal's source for scientific and educational needs.

The synthesizer consists of the following main blocks: control unit, tone generator, vibrato generator, filter, contour and output.

TONE OSCILLATOR - waveform, frequency modulation, modulation amount, impulse width modulation, harmonics, portamento, tuning, octave +1/+2. VIBRATO OSCILLATOR - waveform ("N"), frequency, 1Hz/10Hz, ON (modulation). FILTER - adjustment (cutoff), resonance, vibrato, contour on (contourosc) - attack, release, sustain, decay OUTPUT - level, on.

This synth is an awesome tool.. I personally use two of them and could not think of doing anything without them.

@Brooklamprey i bought this synth broken, major tuning problems and when i ve open it, i saw at least 7 major modification on the board....unfortunately, alisa RIP.

Инструмент электромузыкальный клавишный синтезатор-мелодический "Алиса-1377" предназначен для синтеза электрических сигналов звукового диапазона частот с возможностью исполнения на нем сольных партий музыкальных произведений и создания звуковых эффектов при подключении его к внешнему усилительно-акустическому устройству.

Синтезатор может быть использован в качестве музыкального инструмента, а также в качестве источника нестандартных электрических сигналов для научных и учебных целей.

This sounds cooler to me than a Moog!

I love this synthesizer's filter. So dirty!

[clarius1973]

The sound seems too "rough" and low-quality, but the LFO is great.

@Funkonami1, Modifications seem common to these. Of the four I have looked at only one was stock to the schematics. Funny thing is that I do think some where modified by the factory in later production to help solve the Osc stability problems. One thing is certain, they are a rather high Maintenance synth and having a good idea of electronics and repair goes with owning one that will work. All the extra work is worth it though.
