I posted about the Viscount KB 200 (here on Audio Fanzine) and discovered some stuff about the Viscount KB 880 (reposted that stuff here):

I did some Google sleuthing and found that the Viscount KB 880 (KB 200, KB 300, KB 880, any other Viscount KB's?) had some stolen sounds from some GEM keyboard of a similar era (unknown exactly what GEM keyboard it was). These screenshots came from "Clear and Convincing Evidence: My Career in Intellectual Property Law" by George Gerstman. They are hosted on Imgur:

I've also found a short summary / brief about the Viscount KB 200 and Viscount KB 880 in Advanced Computer Entertainment (ie “ACE”) magazine, issue January 1988, PDF page 46 and page 47 (which can be found on archive.org) backing up that the Viscount KB 200 is partially analog and that the Viscount KB 880 is likely entirely digital. It seems like the Viscount KB 200 and Viscount KB 880 came out in 1987 (since the ACE issue is January 1988).

Here's the snippet of the ACE issue uploaded on archive.org:

…but note that archive.org user “pedgarcia” has the full issue uploaded.

Does anyone have one of these? Have you recorded sounds with it?
