Studio Electronics SE-1 Analog "MiniMoog" Synth

via this auction
"Overview.
The SE-1 is an analog, monophonic synth-module designed to recreate that classic Moog sound. It creates thunderous bass, stunning leads, special FX, and everything in-between, making it perfect for Hip Hop, R&B, Pop, Electronic, DnB and Dance, as well as Jazz, Jazz Fusion, Modern Classical, and Film Scores. It also blends well with acoustic instruments, making it all the more versatile.

The classic Moog sound comes from its distinctive 24-dB low-pass, voltage-controlled analog filter. There's also a 12-dB low-/band-pass filter, which emulates the classic sounds of Oberheim synths. The SE-1 uses three, discrete voltage-controlled analog oscillators for genuine analog synth sounds. That's three VCOs -- just like the MiniMoog. They offer the basic waveforms you'd expect: triangle, sawtooth, reverse sawtooth, square, noise, and random. There are also four, multi-stage ADSR envelope generators to shape your sound, the filter, and more. Also available are ring modulation and glide/auto-glide effects.

With 24 knobs, 21 tactile switches, MIDI control over parameters, and plenty of program storage memory (396 presets and 396 user patches), the SE-1 is a professional alternative to its classic forefathers (and stays in tune better). It's used extensively by industry professionals -- including Fatboy Slim, Frontline Assembly, Eminem, Dr. Dre, David Foster, Hans Zimmer, and Stevie Wonder, to name only a very few.
