I expected a trapdoor to open when he first used it. :D

Whenever i see a Davolisint, i think of a Polish progressive rock / fusion / jazz group called SBB, especially in their early years (until about 1976-1977). Their instrumental work (up until 1980) is extraordinary and futuristic (only 3 musicians most of the time) and you can clearly hear what that primitive Davolisint could do in hands of the virtuoso (Jozef Skrzek). In their early years, they didn't have the resources/means to buy more advanced synths so they used the Davolisint and Minimoog to their full potential. The Davolisint can be clearly heard on their first three albums and on "Nagrania dla WFDiF". I really recommend the latter one as it is much more outstanding and explorative than most of their official albums. The Davolisint also seriously got me into DIY synth making as i got to hear what 2 simple, low pitched, slightly detuned square waves could do. I'd buy the Davolisint for a reasonable price, drunk or sober. Loving Italian drum machines and synths. That dream box 15 drum machine is also GREAT, i'd really like to have it in my collection :D Sounds like it had a phaser processing all the hihats and snares

That "Extend" lever is awesome! It gives off a bit of a steampunk vibe. Fun demo of this rare (at least in North America) synth.

I love that you just embraced it and dialed it up to 11. It's limited, not bad. It just does different things. :)

when i went from grand piano into electronica around 1979 and years before i built my first proper synth (one of the first doepfers), i wanted to rent a "real" synth and was presented with either moog model D or Davoli's finest here. not knowing what to do i took the Davoli. Sick experience. should have deterred me from ever using synths again, but ... well, never stopped making music with synths from then on. pulse modulation, pure vibration, my ass... great song!

Brilliant - I remember buying one of these things when it first came out! I hooked it up to my WEM Copicat, and an Electric Mistress pedal, and got some fun sounds out of it. Amazed there are still some of these still around and working...

I had one of these as a teenager in around 1978 . Really great to see the little monster again. It makes me realise that I didn't have the vision to get anything out of it whereas now I can see it's potential....

I love the sound of this synth, in fact I wish there was more a market for off the wall horror sounds in the synth market, okay so I know why the easy market is going to be making synths for the club sounds of the day, but I do wish that some synth manufacturers would realise how many of us are complete weirdo's and would buy synths that help us explore that. It's an area of the synth community that has been there since day one of the synthesizer as well. I was thinking as well that since you did a tipsy purchase that you should do a tipsy jam on it too haha.

Love it! What an unusual machine. I can see it has it's own charm. If I had one I would keep it, but this is one synth I'm happy to admire from afar and not aquire myself. Love the 'extend' lever with it's delayed return. It's actually really nice to see some unique and unusual control methods. A low pass filter and envelop would really improve it a lot.

Wow~ The "worst synthesizer" sounds pretty damned amazing! 🤣

Even though it made my cat look up, that actually doesn't sound at all that bad but it may be the way you played it so well. Seems ideal for off the wall 1970s-style improvisation.

You brought a smile to my face. Thank you Hainbach. Also the video filter is beautiful

this seems the right machine to go with the cheesy "Giallo" thriller genre.

I could imagine this sounding good buried under layers of analogue degradation like low pass filters, spring reverb and tape echo - that shrapnel storm sound. One synth I'd love to hear you work with is Crumar's Performer with the most beautiful, mournful synth strings I've heard. Sounds like a cyborg crying!

I want to hear it put through that crazy Princeton Research filter!!! Such a weirdly percussive instrument.

WHAAAAAAT 660 euro????? I either still have one in storage or it's been binned. Bought for £25 in 1985. Looks cool, sounds like cr*p. I only had two tape decks to do overdubs and only an occasionally borrowed delay pedal in terms of effects. It sounds better than I remember tbh but thats probably in my brain filed under 'things I hate' 😜. Sad to think that after the apocalypse there will just be the toughest of mutant cockroaches and Davolisint's left. Bands will be formed and aliens will look on in wonder, wondering why the entire planet wasn't destroyed.

When I hit the "like" button, the counter advanced to 665. Missed it by just *_1!_* The instrument has a sound that brings to mind, for me, music from a late 60s/early 70s Saturday morning children's cartoon about a group of low-powered superheroes who all live in a spaceship. Cheesy, but also unique and hard-to-replace. And better-than-expected. Congratulations on being happy with your drunk Reverb purchase.

Any chance of you recording a whole album of this stuff?.. It was wonderful! Cluster/Kluster

This sounds like it could be a really capable sound effect generator, on top of its “rave-synth” potential. I think it would really fit for something like an 8-bit racing game.

I know this one only because of an old freeware VST, Davosynth by the polish developer Elektrostudio (possibly defunct by now, the last time I've checked their site, it was still there, but no updates for a few years already). This really throws me back to my early days of music production when I was downloading and testing any freeware I could find. Davosynth was, together with the other Elektrostudio plugins, one of those which stayed on my hard drive.

Memories - the 'keyboard' player (using term loosely) in my first ever band had one of these 'synths' - I remember that sound - we mainly did covers (Son of My Father was one if I remember correctly with the DavoliSint taking centre stage 🤣

the sound from this thing is really unique. around 5:00 I thought that someone played with the classic NES and Mario just had fallen into the flames :D and about a minute later you mention the chiptune stuff. this is where I see this synth. a chiptune monster!
