"Quite a rare quirky analogue synth/sequencer made in Japan by a company called Firstman, which was part of Multivox I believe. Made around 1981. Step or real time sequencer with 1024 notes in total with 16 non destructive memory locations.

This is pre-midi but has full CV control, which is where it works best. Quite a fat analogue sound which produces some lovely bass notes and sounds great in a mix.

CV In/out, clock in/out, gate in/out, footswitch in, Synchro out

Runs on 8x AA batteries or external 12v power supply (not included)

No noisy pots, althougn there are a few surface marks on the membrane keyboard it all works as it should.

A PDF of the operating instructions are available online.

This is built on a metal frame and weighs about 4kg, hence postage of £10 It will be well packed for shipping."
