Oberheim SEM Analog Synthesizer

via this auction

"Cosmetics aside this is one of the best analog synths ever made, it DOES sound better than the new SEM. I've owned the new SEM and greatly prefer the old one over the new (the new is still really good though) but nothing quite the original. The original sounds more liquidy and warm, it has a buzzier bubblier sounding filter and the oscillators drift more."

    they're identical to me, except the new i've received was not perfectly calibrated (when you put pwm mod to the max, you could not get narrow pulse, but really a detail ...)

    The red/pink writing gave it away.
