VCS3 Mark 1

VCS3 Synthi

EMS Synthi 100

The VCS3 is an analogue synthesizer which Delia used at Unit Delta Plus and eventually also at the BBC Radiophonic Workshop.

Delia used at least two models:

she owned a VCS3 Synthi, a beautiful early model with duck egg white coloured panels^[1] which she ultimately gave to Pete Kember. She used to take it in to the BBC Radiophonic Workshop until they bought one.
she used the BBC Radiophonic Workshop's gigantic EMS Synthi 100, also known as the Delaware.

Pieces using VCS3 sounds

Her sheets of VCS3 settings are in the Category:VCS3 dope sheet

The original VCS3 synthesizers are still manufactured and sold by Electronic Music Studios (EMS)
The EMS Synthi-A VCS3 is emulated by the free VST plugin Cynthia.
