Roland MKS-80 Super Jupiter with MPG-80 Programmer

via this auction

"This unit has the Version 4.0 software, and the serial number is higher than 511799, therefore it is the later version with Roland VCO chips, not CEM (they all have Roland Filter chips). Debate rages as to which sound better - I can't comment as I haven't A/B'd two units, but I do know that the later version corrects distortion that could occur at higher resonance settings in Unison mode, and at high Crossmod settings.

Comes with DIN cable to join the 2 units. Note that the MPG-80 does not have rack mount ears."
