Introduction

 

 

 

Congratulations  on buying  the  Telemark synthesiser.  Telemark  is part  of  the  Analogue  Solutions 
range  of  analogue  music  equipment.  Telemark  is  a  precision  electronic  musical  instrument.  It 
combines  all  the  often  needed  music  electronic  circuitry  to  make  a  music  synthesiser  in  one 
compact module.

 

 

No compromise has been made with the construction of Telemark. Cheaper options in parts have 
not been used

 

 

 

Full rugged steel case - no plastic mouldings

 

 

Good quality smooth potentiometers, fully sealed against dust

 

 

Good quality knobs with spun aluminium caps

 

 

High grade double sided circuit board

 

 

All power and signal input/outputs have EM filters to remove external noise and improve immunity

 

 

High Quality DAC - 16bit! (others use 12 or even 8 bit) 

 

 

Very stable MIDI to CV conversion

 

 

Very stable analogue oscillators

 

 

Expensive blue

 

 

Hand built by humans

 

 

Lasting  quality  and  appeal  with  a  life  far  longer  than  any  software  plug-in  or  DSP synth

 

 

 

 

 

Brief Overview 

 

Telemark is a self-contained TRUE analogue synthesiser. The voice circuitry is entirely analogue, 
using all discrete and op-amp components. There is no voice DSP happening! 

 

Telemark  has  a  similar  sound  and  specification  to  the  classic  Oberheim  SEM,  but  with  many 
improvements such as MIDI, Noise, more modulation. Note however, Telemark is not intended to be 
and is not a clone of the SEM. If you want a true SEM sound, buy a SEM!

 

 

 

Applications

 

 

MONO SYNTHESISER

 

Telemark is for use any time you need analogue sound effects, fat basses, screaming  leads,  beeps, 
tones,  zaps,  and  all  the  other  crazy  sounds  associated  with  analogue synthesis. Use in place of 
your boring digital synths and DSP soft synths.

 

 

 

 

 

EFFECTS PROCESSOR

 

Telemark has an audio input socket, so you can feed external sounds into the on-board analogue 
filters for analogue processing.
