via this auction"First of all this synth sounds amazing. It has a strong analog sound that really dominates any other instruments accompanying it. As might be expected one of the best parts is the filter. In addition to frequency and resonance it also has a "bright" to "dull" switch, and an "expand" switch, which seems to activate some kind of an envelope (although there are no ADSR controls). Monophonic. Has two parallel voices - upper and lower - each with separate output. Unintuitively, the sliders work from top to bottom (i.e., "0" is at the top, "10" is at the bottom)...
The "repeat" mode key on the lower right hand side has some sort of function - it delays the trigger - but it may not function properly (and I can't see how it's musically useful anyway). I am not sure exactly what it does. The two key transpose keys on the top right also either do not work or have no apparent function - they do not transpose an octave up or down as one might expect. The middle C# and E-flat keys seem to require slightly more pressure or a slightly sharper touch to trigger. The lower voice seems to be stuck on a square wave, nothing happens when you move the switch to sine or triangle, however the "chorus" function does work fully. On both the upper and the lower mode, the ranks (64', 32', 16', 8', 4', 2') work best on 16', 8' and 4'. Note: I only copy portions of descriptions that have to do with the functionality of the synth. Posts here are about the synth, not the auction. If you consider bidding, always read the full description at the auction.
