The 1003 Sonic Carrier
|
| Introduced in 1976, the 1003 was a microprocessor controlled duophonic synth with 50
memory locations and digital oscillators. Parameters were adjusted using
the now familiar PPG buttons as opposed to knobs Unfortunately PPG
sold very few of these radical instruments (alleged to be less than the
10 reported to have been made) , this was to be one of several occasions
when Wolfgang's ideas were just to far ahead for the average musician! |

Edgar's shirt!) shows the 1003 on the right with a 350 computer
sequencer atop a 360 wave computer. |
