"Extremely rare 360 Systems Digital Keyboard. This was the first sample playback instrument and intended to be a "digital Mellotron". It has a warmth and character all it's own.These instruments are super rare. Less than 200 were made. This one includes MIDI which wasn't standard back in the day. The keyboard is a little sticky, but all keys work. I've been using MIDI to control it.
Check out the YouTube video for a demonstration of the keyboard and the sounds included.
The instrument is heavy and delicate, so shipping is not an option. Local pickup is in Brooklyn, NY.
Apparently the 360 was used for the sax sound on "Gold Digger" by Kanye.
Here are the internal presets:

3 Low Strings
4 Oboe
