Rare Vintage OMB3 made in Italy in the 1980's.

Cosmetically in good sound condition for its age.

I have only been able to power test it as I don't have the equipment or knowledge to test fully, it was used however by it's previous owner up until last year, he was a performing accordian player.

Comes as machine only, no power supply or anything else is included in this sale.

Takes a standard kettle type power cord.

Manual can be found online or purchased from eBay, also there are a few YouTube videos demonstrating this machine.

INFO: The Elka OMB 3 is an absolutely unique oddity of a disco machine. Part synthesizer, part drum machine, part sequencer, part electronic orchestrator and then there is the layering aspect that really brings out the amazing sounds. Midi input, 1/4" audio outputs and 1/4 stereo headphone out.

The FM synthesizer section offers 24 presets of synth sounds. No editing capabilities are available however the user can stack/layer two sounds with each other making for interesting and heavier sounding arrangements!

The Sequencer Section can hold up to 9 parts making it 9 part multitimbral. There is also an Auto Bass Accompaniment within the Sequencer Arranger with song functions available like tempo, variation, and rhythm.
