"This is often called a "Preset" synth, but that is deceiving as pretty much every function (Filter, Envelope, etc) can be overridden and set however you want. It shares the same gnarly diode-based dual VCF (and a lot more, I think) with the legendary mega-expensive GX-1 solo synth section and has Highpass and Lowpass filters, both with resonance. It also has the smoothest, most expressive optical aftertouch I've ever used. This is really one of the best sounding monosynths I've ever heard, and also one of the most characteristic. I'm probably crazy for getting rid of it but am desperate for some cash to fund other projects.
Cosmetically it's in nice, very clean condition with some minor scuffs and wear. One switch shaft (Vibrato Preset/Control) is slightly bent askew but functions 100% properly. The lid is missing one clasp and some of the tolex is starting to come unglued from the lid trim.Functionally it's perfect, everything works as it should and the CV/Gate mod allows it to be played from a midi-CV converter or analog sequencer. I'm not too into acid, but the filter architecture on this makes it a really unique acid machine when sequenced."
