You can find a demo of one previously posted here.

"An amazing and very rare Italian string machine/keyboard from the late 1970's.

It has the ability to separately process the Violin and Viola sections from the Piano and Harpsichord sounds. I tend to put a chorus and reverb on the strings and a delay on the percussive sounds...for amazing results.

This keyboard is in excellent shape considering that it is 44 years old. I just cleaned all of the slider pots and the internal circuits. In gorgeous shape for a mid-aged instrument.

I recently replaced/repaired the slider for the string sections sustain control. I couldn't find an exact match, but did my best."
