Roland PG-200

images via this auction. This one is being touted as old new stock. via this VSE thread. The poster on VSE is gilwe.

"The PG-200 is the programmer to be used with Roland JX3P, MKS-30 and GR-700. The history of this specific item begins in the 80s, when a local guy who wanted to start a keyboard shop made a large order from Roland for analog equipment. However, his idea seemed to fail, and he had to sell most of the equipment privately over the years. Then it came to me that the guy had a few PG-200 units left. I had the chance to get them, and decided to put this one for sale on ebay"

Nice wallpaper created from the shot of the previous post. It was posted in the comments via Dave. I just liked the way it looks with Roland's The Synthesizer next to it.

Multivox MX-880

images via this auction

"The Multivox MX-880 is known as a preset monophonic analog synthesizer with a 3-octave, 37-note (C-C) keyboard with aftertouch. Although it is a preset synth by definition, it has 22 knobs and sliders which can override the preset values. As far as I know this analog synth was made late early to mid 1970 's. Some of its features were obviously taken from some of the Roland models that were made at that time, and the Filters on the Multivox MX - 880 are strikingly similar to the Moog filters. (rumored to have been identical)

Comments About the Sounds:
This synth can produce major electronic bleeps, sweeps, harsh noises, as well as mellow, moody, ethereal pads. Even if you don't know anything about synthesizer programming the layout of the controls makes it a breeze to customize the sounds to your taste."

SMS Mars

images via this auction
"Synthetic Music Systems M.A.R.S. (Modular Analog Rackmount Synthesizer) Synthesizer voice. In excellent condition, with just a couple of scratches from rack mounting. Currently $599 new at AnalogueHaven. Includes a homemade eurorack patch panel for bringing up to 8 patch points around the front of your eurorack system. (You'll need to come up with a hole in the back of your eurorack. Includes manual and cord (not
shown) and will ship in the original box. It's about 8 months old. The moog type filter sounds particularly nice, and both the filter and VCA can be overdriven for a nice warm sound.

The Mars (Modular Analogue Rack Synthesizer) is a highly versatile music synthesizer and forms the core of the SMS modular system. As a stand-alone unit it can create the sounds associated with analogue synthesizers: silky smooth filter sweeps, squealing lead lines and deep rumbling basses. Its open-ended architecture has been carefully designed for expansion. The front panel controls allow the five synthesizer circuits (VCLFO, VCO, VC, VCA, ENV) within the the MARS to be isolated; the jacks on the rear panel allow signal and modulation routing to be configured to your specification, allowing for true modular synthesis. The Mars 1u rack synth has 16 knobs on the front panel and 21 patchpoints on the back."
