This is the one in this video. You'll find one more video at the auction and below.
The synth has been fully calibrated (tuning, filters, all oscillator offsets...) and the key action has been set for optimum playing and fast triggering. The brushings feel brand new and there are absolutely no sticky or misfiring keys! The power supply was completely recapped and has new regulators, the heating PCB that regulates tuning has also been fully recapped and new transistors were put in to ensure that the tuning is far more reliable than on MonoPolys that haven't had the upgrades.
The synth functions and plays absolutely beautifully and has the renowned SSM oscillators and filters that harken to the Rev 2 Prophet 5!
In addition to the upgrades for power and tuning, this MonoPoly has a modification that allows for voltage control over the VCA. This is very handy as it allows the user to send velocity information via a MIDI to CV converter to the VCA thus giving velocity control over amplitude!
As you can tell from the photographs the MonoPoly is in excellent condition. The metal work looks is scratch free and looks incredible for a synth this old. It has a beautiful shine and has been immaculately well maintained. The wood side panels have some scratches going on but that is normal for a synth this old and it is something that can easily be fixed by a cabinet maker..."
