"The AX-60 is a really special polyphonic synthesizer. Akai's answer to the Roland Juno Series, it can hit those sounds well but actually has quite a lot of extra features when comparing to a Juno-106.

First, this is a VCO synth and the oscillator section includes a triangle wave as well as a dedicated pulse width LFO. Additionally, pulse width can be applied to any wave! There are two envelopes, an LFO with sample and hold, and the ability to FM the filter with the oscillator. It even has built in chorus that sounds just like the BBD based chorus in the Juno synths. Finally, there is a built in arpeggiator and bi-timbrel keyboard split options. All these features make it quite a fun synth to use with more range than other vintage poly's.

The AX-60 is a great vintage poly option, especially in the wake of the similar Juno series prices skyrocketing!"
