via this auction

"The Analogue Synthesizer SX-150 MK2 is quite an advanced little synth. With multiple controllable parameters, line in and out and a four octave range, it’s an amazing piece of kit. The Analog Synthesizer SX-150 Mark II uses an electrode stylus to play tones, is battery powered and is a quality piece of kit.

Also this auction includes a MIDI-IF controller, this means you can plus the Gakken in and play this with a midi keyboard. This adds features of tune, modulation rate and glide to the Gakken and like the Gakkken is battery powered."

According to the QA in the listing, the MIDI-IF "was custom made by beatnic.jp in Japan, the model of this controller is a MIDI-IF for the Gakken SX-150 mk2."

You can see another model of the MIDI-IF for KORG's Monotron here.


They also made The Mountain synth. See the beatnic.jp channel label at the bottom of this post for more.

"Testing out the latest addition to the Telstar Attaché Synthesizer. Now it has a simple 8 step sequencer with CV and Clock outs. This is being used to drive the modified Gakken SX-150 MKII and the modified Korg Monotron Delay. Nothing else used here and no effects.

"A first foray into the newly expanded Telstar Attaché Synthesizer. Here I'm just trying to figure out what does what and why. The new, logic-defying, sequencer is now driving the synth modules. If I can learn how to control this thing it'll be a beast. No other sounds or effects are used here."

Gakken SX150 mark II : Unbox and test drive

How many of you are familiar with that opening track?

"I got a new toy, Gakken SX150 mark II with very affordable price :D

This products was designed by famous Japanese analog synthesizer builder and the sound quality is very good.

By the way I don't know why but the price of this product is now slashed in Japan, I bought it from amazon.co.jp and it was only 700yen ( about $6 ).

Originally it was more than 7000 yen.

Probably, this product is failed in the market, maybe Gakken miscalculated the market size and overstocked, I don't know real reason but I guess so ;-)

Honestly we can buy two of monotron with such price and build quality of KORG's is much better than Gakken's.

Anyway very difficult market :D"

They are a bit more on Amazon US
You can also find Gakken Synths on eBay of course.  The Mk1 was black and the MK2 red.  Everything sounds nice with a bit of reverb.
