Roland DG CMU-810 vintage synthesizer

via this auction
"rare vintage Roland CMU-810... This is a predecessor to the popular SH-101 and MC-202. There are small differences between these models, the CMU has VCA cv input which the two others lack. It also has LFO delay, a feature found on the MC-202 but lacking on the SH-101. It also has a unique feature in the internal mixer which lets you mix two external sources with the synth engine. The feature that sets it apart the most from the other two is the quality of construction! This is no cheap plastic box, but a nice metal box with Jupiter-8 style quality faders! Its sound is apparently close to the SH-101 with slightly more low-end, I can't confirm this but can attest that this unit sounds awesome"
