"The Rhodes Chroma is a vintage polyphonic, multitimbral, microprocessor controlled, subtractive synthesis, analog synthesizer. This Chroma is being sold as is. It does not make sound. When I plugged in the synthesizer and turned it on, no display or lights came on. The power supply hummed and I immediately turned it off and unplugged it. This Chroma is in good physical condition inside and out. It has some kind of tape residue on the wood side panels and one of the plastic tops of the number 2 left hand controller is missing.

The Chroma uses an Electronically Reconfigurable System which allows the VCOs, VCFs and VCAs to be reconfigured or patched like modular synthesizers but without the patch cords. Instead, the Chroma digitally stores all of the parameters which determine a sound. The Chroma has better patching capabilities than most modular systems and it is fully programmable."
