Oberheim Four Voice with MIDI

Title link takes you to shots pulled via this auction. Sent my way via Boris.

Details:
"Serial# 0569 Comes with Encore Electronics 8 channel Midi CV converter with all the necessary cables to midi the 4 voices. Comes with carrying case with wheels but needs new foam. The 4 voice was one of the first polyphonic synths. Each of the 4 Synthesizer Expander Modules ( SEMs ) can be assigned to a different note. Splitting voices between modules is also possible. So is a monophonic unison mode. A single voice is surprisingly powerful, offering 2 oscillators, 2 envelopes (1 for filter, 1 for volume), an LFO, pulse width modulation and a multimode filter with sweepable mode (which few synths offered). The programmer module allows fast saving and recall of programmed sounds. Unbelievably FAT and warm. Even a single SEM kicks a$$ - This is REAL analog! In unison mode, it allows EIGHT oscillators per key. 4 x Synthesizer Expander Module ( SEM ) Keyboard Output module Polyphonic Keyboard module Programmer module "

MOOG MF-FM

Update: Make sure to check out the sample on site.

"MF-FM: NEW MOOGERFOOGER EFFECT USES BROADCAST RADIO SIGNALS

MF/FM mixes live radio and instrument sounds to create out-of-this-world effects.

In case the FreqBox wasn’t adept at catapulting Moog beyond the frayed outer circles of unique electronic effects, another new Moogerfooger, unveiled today, puts the phrase “never been done before” into almost cliché territory. The “MF/FM” effect actually captures radio signals, routes them through electronic wizardry, and produces some of the craziest sounds imaginable.

The new MF/FM begins shipping on April 1, 2007.

$349.00 in US dollars."
