Simone Sedda

An extremely rare piece of technology from the 1970s. It comes with all the original accessories which are stored inside and accessed via a metal clip-lock on the back. The main box/speaker is in working order. There is no reason to suspect why anything else wouldn't work as it all looks in excellent condition, but I no longer have a piano to test it all on.

Collection preferred although postage options are available.

A bit of background info:

This was a birthday or Christmas present from my grandparents to my dad back in the 70s. My dad was a keen musician who played piano, keyboard, guitar, violin and trumpet. All this despite only having 2 usable fingers on one hand! He also wrote several Christmas songs (a new one each year) that our school choir would perform alongside the classic carols. He would use this piece of kit in the early days of composing, before the digital era took hold.

The PIANOmate was made by Dubreq Studios, London in the 1970s. They are the same people who invented the stylophone. The PIANOmate is a four-octave, keyless electronic organ or analogue synthesizer. The idea was that any pianist could add the PIANOmate to a piano by attaching the two (bass and treble) octave bars above the keyboard. The two bars have plungers which sit over the piano keys. When a key is pressed by the player, the plunger is released, makes up a circuit and a note is played by the PIANOmate as well. The two (bass and treble) plunger bars are attached by multi-pin plugs to what looks like a small combo amplifier. This has controls for tone, voice, articulation of vibrato, speed of vibrato and master tuning. There's a pedal to allow control of the overall volume of the PIANOmate and an input and volume control for a microphone.
