VINTAGE ARP OMNI-2 49 KEY ANALOG SYNTH

via this auction

"HERE IS SOME INFO FROM ARP
The Omni keyboards are string synthesizers with four separate voices (bass, cello, viola, violin, each independently switchable) and a bass/synthesizer section. The string section has its own variable speed LFO, and attack/release envelopes. The synthesizer section has a VCF and its own ADSR envelope. The bass/synthesizer split is set to the lower one and a half octaves.

The Omni (model 2300) was ARP's best selling intstrument. Unlike the original, the Omni-2 has single triggering so that when any note is held down the VCF and VCA envelopes will not re-trigger. The original Omni had multiple triggering so that every time a key was depressed the envelopes were triggered."
