The listing states this was the 1st digtally controlled analog synth. Not sure what aspect of the synth it's referring to. The Prophet-5 was the first poly analog with a digital processor. The Oberheim OB-1 didn't have a processor but did have a form of digital patch memory. The first synth with digital control was likely the PPG 1003. There were some others as well. See this post on the world's first programmable synths for more including some words from Tom Oberheim, Dave Smith and Wolfgang Palm.
