Pic of the inside below.via the listing: "If you don't know what this is or does, Google "Sequential Circuits Model 700 Programmer". If you know what it is, then you know how rare and unique it is. One of Sequential's first products, only 200 or so were made. List price for the "Mark I" was $1195.00 in 1979. I bought this one from Sammy Hagar's keyboard player, who had used it with a Minimoog on Hagar's "Red" tour. The walnut wood side panels had been painted black. I used it with a modular synth both live and in studios. In 1983?--it "lost" its memory. I took it to Sequential, and they replaced the memory battery [for free] and also gave me a schematic when i requested one. In 1985, I sold the modular synth [dang!] but kept the Mdl. 700 in case I got another modular--I never did. It was unused until 2001--I turned it on and the fuse blew. I took it to a Tech, who replaced the power capacitors and "put heat sinks on the voltage regulators"? Unused again until 2010-when I took the battery out to replace the dead one in my SCI Six Trak. Recently tried to check the outputs with a voltmeter.It looks like one of the envelope generators works, and one does not.I don't know what should be on the other outputs without the memory battery. Also,the display numbers do not always change when you turn the Bank Select knob. Otherwise, it is in very good physical condition-no rust, and only minor scratches and dings. It will definitely require Technical help. No returns. USA only shipping."
