"Thomas bought the rights to the Satellite from Moog. The CDX-0652 was designed by Thomas in cooperation with Cordovox. A Thomas version of the Satellite (the "Synthi 1055) and the CDX-0652 were both manufactured by EME, the same outfit that made most Italian Vox organs. Thomas also marketed the Satellite under the "Orbit" name on some of their home organs. ",
"The synthesizer voices play only on the upper manual, organ voices play on both. Organ and synth voices may be played simultaneously on the upper manual.

Unlike the 0642, this one seems to have all of the organ features (many of which seem identical to the 0642) available on both keyboards. "

National Music Centre."With the incorporation of Jennings Musical Instruments in 1957, discussions leading to a collaborative venture between JMI, the Thomas Organ Company, an American manufacturer of primarily church organs, and Eko, an Italian manufacturer of electronic organs, also began. This joint venture was not formalized until the early 1960s, emerging as EME (Elettronica Musicale Europea), and resulted in the establishment of a subsequent factory in Portofino, Italy. EME remained the primary manufacturer or electronic organs in Italy throughout the latter half of the 1960s, producing many instruments under the Vox and Eko brands, including the former’s Super Continental and Continental Baroque models; the factory ceased operations on Vox instruments in 1978. In 1970, Ennio Uncini, a former president of EME, would go on to establish the Jen brand of synthesizers and organs in Pesacara, Italy. "
