"Fascinating vintage synth, very rare, and certainly at the time considered an improvement on the earlier all-analogue 1002. But not perfect:- Here are Lucid's notes (they decided that with Moog modulars and Minimoogs to deal with they couldn't guarantee to get this mended in anywhere near quick enough time). 1. The keyboard decoding is not working correctly 2. The keyboard output voltage is FM modulated by some digital noise. However, raising the glide control stops this. In its defence: 3. The bottom key mechanism is broken but the key can still be played. 4. The filter, oscillators, LFO, envelopes and noise all work. 5. It makes an effective weird sound FX generator just as it is. 6. All CMOS decode stuff so probably fixable. So if you have access to technical knowhow, you could turn this into more than just a creator of unusual sounds."Note the Roland Jupiter-6 with custom fire paint job in the background.
