Simone Sedda

The Casio VL - 1. 1980s 

Released in June 1979, The Casio VL - 1 is the first commercial digital synthesizer.

Sting, Stevie Wonder, Beastie Boys, Apollo 440, Devo, the Talking Heads, the Cars, Dee-Lite, Vince Clarke, The Human League, Trio, White Town, Bill Nelson, all used the cheesy sounds of the VL-Tone.

The VL-1 was the first instrument of Casio's VL-Tone product line, and is sometimes referred to as the VL-Tone. It combined a calculator, a monophonic synthesizer, and sequencer.

The Casio VL-1 or VL-Tone as it's also called has 29 little calculator-type button keys, five preset and one user memory patches, built-in rhythm machine (waltz, swing, rock, samba, etc.) and a 100-note sequencer. There is an LFO with vibrato and tremolo effects and an ADSR envelope.

It’s in very good condition. Please take a look at the many pictures provided to get a good sense of the item.

Comes in its original bag. Runs on 4 batteries.

Shipping carrier: TNT Express
Est. delivery time: 3-4 days

Because the item includes fragile materials and old mechanisms that are still working, it needs an extra custom package increasing shipping cost.
