See these well-known photos of Ashra in Mid-70s below.
What's this thing, which looks like an old Computer monitor with red lights (right behind Manuel on the first photo)?

Very rare machine as not many were made. It used punchcards to program different rythyms)

JM Jarre used one of these & Stephen Parsick (Dronescape - on this forum) also has/had one. I'm sure he can tell you about it.

Heres a video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BSNtRDsTuGw

I know what you mean, I was going to buy a Korg PS3100 for the similar reasons, mainly for it's old telephone exchange console looks, but now these are in the $4000 mark...
