Phil Manzanera's Keyboards and Synthesizers
From December 2022 Guitar World interview, answering what is his favourite piece of gear.
When we started Roxy Music, [Brian] Eno and I had — as part of our setups — a Revox tape recorder that had a thing called Sel-Synch and Varipitch where you could change the pitch and echo repeats by changing the speed. I had it linked to a DeArmond volume pedal that controlled the speed and Sel-Synch functions on the Revox and provided weird echo effects that linked into Eno’s [EMS VCS3] synth. This was a completely different and revolutionary way of working that Eno and I used in 1972 and 1973.
