* '''Synclavier II''' (1980): 8-bit [[FM synthesis|FM]]/[[additive synthesis]], 32-track memory recorder, and ORK keyboard. Earlier models were entirely controlled via ORK keyboard with buttons and wheel; a [[VT100]] terminal was subsequently introduced for editing performances. Later models had a [[VT640]] graphic terminal for graphical audio analysis (described below).<ref name="history" />
** '''Original Keyboard''' (ORK, c.1979): original musical keyboard controller in a wooden chassis, with buttons and silver control wheel on the panel.<ref name="history" />
** '''Sample-to-Disk''' (STD, c.1982): a first commercial hard disk streaming [[Sampler (musical instrument)|sampler]], with 16-bit sampling at up to 50&nbsp;kHz.<ref name="history" />
** '''Sample-to-Memory''' (STM): later option to sample sounds and edit them in computer memory.<ref name="manual3" />
** '''Direct-to-Disk''' (DTD, c.1984): an early commercial [[hard disk recording]] system.
** '''Signal File Manager''': a software program operated via [[VT640]] [[Computer terminal#Graphical terminals|graphic terminal]], enabling [[additive resynthesis]] and complex [[audio analysis]].<ref name="history" />
** '''Digital Guitar Interface'''<ref name="joness"/><ref name="G-303"/>
** [[SMPTE timecode]] tracking<ref name="history" />

* '''Synclavier PSMT''' (1984): a faster ABLE Model C processor-based system, with a new 'Multi-Channel-Distribution' real-time digitally controlled analog signal routing technology, and 16-bit RAM-based stereo sampling subsystem. The monaural FM voice card was doubled up and enabling software panning for stereo output was introduced.<ref name="history" />
** '''Velocity/Pressure Keyboard''' (VPK, c.1984): a weighted velocity/after-pressure sensitive musical keyboard controller, was introduced. This had a black piano lacquer finished chassis, a larger display, additional buttons and a silver control wheel.<ref name="history" />
