Fairlight VOICETRACKER Rev5 owned by Stewart Copeland.Well, here is something very rare and in that case is very special. This Voicetracker is a part of Mr. Copeland's set up. It's special version that I didn't see previously. It's Rev5 version with very different menus on it. I got it functioning properly for voice recognition, it tracks the voice amazing, recognizes a tone and a pitch wonderfully, providing MIDI and CV outputs. I couldn't get to work internal square wave oscillator. It looks to be an early prototype or something very customized. So it could work differently or not implemented at all. Fairlight was known for that. I see no signs of any attempts for the repair it except factory rework, which is another thing Fairlight is known for :))))) This is a real piece of history!Here is a test video of THIS Voicetracker:https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=v6Dhwz-bYGs It's in great cosmetic condition, few minor scratches but very clean. Comes with BW tube monitor which is like new. You can use it with any other monitor or TV with composite video input. 
You'll receive:1. Fairlight Voicetracker2. CRT monitor3. Video cable4. Power cords
Important:I see some people nowadays cheating eBay customer protection program. They're buying music gear, playing with it and using it and shortly returning it for any reason. I have no trust to eBay any longer in regards how they appreciate sellers. The only option to avoid such in future for me is selling all my items as "broken/for parts" no matter of their condition. I repeat again, I'm selling it AS-IS as broken / parts unit without any responsibility. If you do not agree with these terms, please don't buy. 
Shipping:Item will be shipped by Air Mail on the Same or Next Business day of receiving full payment.
This is international shipping from US. Exact delivery time varies from your location and could be up to 3-5 weeks.
NOTE: Don't be surprised, USPS has increased the shipping cost since Jan 01 2016, so the minimal package costs $13.50 for the first class international.
