The Elka Rhapsody 490 was a famous Italian strings machine from the mid 70s. It was also sold as the Hohner String Vox with a beige case. EKR490 features two main sounds, Strings and Violoncello, and a combination of the two which is slightly different than just mixing both sounds together. This synth was used by many artists, including Jean Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, and Vangelis.
