Synth of the week : Soviet "Pif" Synth

I found Soviet Synth pretty sexy but this one is very funny : It's a "Pif le chien" Synth!
Pif is a french famous comics character, and......belongs to the PCF (Parti Communiste Français)!!!
So this is the first communist merchandising synth ever built :)

Eowave Persephone

Eowave Persephone is a ribbon-controlled synthesizer capable of Theremin-like sounds. You press the velocity sensitive button on the left to make it play and your finger on the ribbon determines the pitch with pressure controlled amplitude. There is a Sine/triangle 100% analogue oscillator in there. It will output CV and gate.
