Crumar Bit One

owner: Jay Williston, Boston, MA

serial #: BS00343

"The Bit One is a 6-voice polyphonic programmable touch-sensitive sythesizer, designed with microprocessor (computer) technology.

"In effect, the Bit One is the result of two computers working simultaneously, one is dedicated to the generation and manipulation of sound, ...[and] the second handle[s] the keyboard and the dynamic informations.

"The general characteristics of the BIT ONE are:

  • 2 DCO, 6 VCF, 6VCA, 2 Envelope Generators and 2 LFO for each voice
  • 63 user programmable presets
  • Key velocity sensitive keyboard
  • Double and Split Modes in order to have two different sounds simultaneously (the BIT ONE is bitimbric)
  • Instant Editing for all parameter's values [not true: the parameters have to be entered in via keypad]
  • Panel Lay-out designed to have simple and fast editing in live performance
  • Complete MIDI interface with other synthesizer, sequencer, rhythm unit and computer. [this is very incorrect, the Bit One has a poor attempt at MIDI]
  • Tape interface in order to record and load from tape all sound memory data
  • Pitch bend and Modulation Wheels."

[from Bit One Owner's Manual ---by Guido Dall'Oglio]
