via this auction
"he wonderful Korg MAxiKorg or 800dv is one of a kind. A unique analog synth from the pre-chips era. 4 VCO capable of producing FAT 4VCO monophonic leads or Dual 2-VCO duophonic chords or sequences. Upper VCO has coarse tuning, fine tuning, Octave 64-32-16-8-4-2, Waveforms Triangle-Square-Saw-Pulse-PWM (chorus)-Pink Noise. Plus Mixer with Ring-modulated 32-16-8-4-2 Sub-Oscillator.

Add to that PWM, Vibrato Speed and Depth with Delay, Pitch Bender Delay and Time and Portamento.

The lower VCO has about the same functions, but with White Noise instead of Pink noise (also has a Ringmodulated Saw with Octave Select). On top of that, you get Two VCA with selectable range Mod Source, and Hold, AR or ADS mode, one for each VCO pair.

Add also the famous 4 VCF filters sliders controlling 2 Highpass and 2 Lowpass cutoffs, with 3 steps selectable resonance and VCA mod. On top of that, you have a Pulse LFO allowing to repeat triggers in 5 different modes, like two voices at the time, voices alternating for pulsing leads, ajustable speed and Decay.

You also have two switches for controlling the playing mode, choosing which voice plays when one key pressed, or two key pressed.

You have access to individual voice volume control and independent audio outputs.

The keyboard is extremely stable, without drifting over time, and easy to tune."
