"Vintage 1986 Akai AX60 VCO 6 Voice Analog Polyphonic Synthesizer that was recently professionally serviced and deep cleaned. It’s in excellent condition, works as it should and plays great. Brace yourself for one of the most futuristic and wild sounding VCO Poly synths of the 80s!Truly a head of its time design. It has some rare features not available on any other synths such as having PWM on every available waveform, advanced cross mod and filter mod options, multi mode arpeggiator with external sync, multiple split options, 6 voice stacked unison mode and one of the most unique and aggressive filters out of any synth ever made.
This is a really unique sounding synth that is very different than any other synth of its era dispute its familiar appearance. This synth can take you places no other VCO Poly Synth even to this day can go.
It really excels at mean leads, aggressive basses and out there sound effects. It can even get into some sonic spaces typically only possible with fully digital FM synths.
It can sound lush and pretty and get into Juno 60 territory if you want it to as well. It features one of the best built in analog stereo chorus’s I’ve heard on any synth.
Another thing that makes this synth unique is that every slider’s parameter range is much greater than most synths. If a Juno 60’s sliders take you from 0-10, then this can take you from 0-20. Its crazy fast modulation rates and window shattering resonance can take you for one hell of a ride."
