"The Neptune 2 is a Swiss-made, all-analog mono-synth with built-in MIDI and CV/Gate in a 2-space rack-mount module. It features three true analog oscillators for a very fat sound. It has a 24 dB filter, but it is not as creamy as a Minimoog. All parameters and controls are available from the knobs and switches on the front panel in an intuitive and clearly labeled layout - bringing old-school analog synthesis to the modern MIDI studio.

These don’t appear very often. Not many were produced.

Look closely at the front panel in the photos. There are many features that don't appear on most monosynths. Most important: two ADSR envelopes, with modulation positive or negative for the filter. The filter offers Low Pass and High Pass modes. Oscillator 3 is a bass oscillator, or it functions as an LFO, with several waveforms and mod destinations (Targets). There is also MIDI control of filter and aftertouch modes."
