(more shots to the bottom right when you get there)

You can find more info including samples on the Benjolin here.

"The Benjolin is a ‘noise box’ that is ‘bent by design’, meaning that it always has a definite amount of unpredictability while it is still intuitive to play. The Benjolin features two eighteen-octave range voltage controlled oscillators that drive a ‘rungler’ circuit, circuitry that in essence uses a special interference technique feeding back into the oscillators to force them into wild chaotic behaviour.

A special slightly chaotic filter is both excited and modulated by the signals from the rungler circuitry processes, producing sounds between fat drones to grungy noise havoc."

via this auction
"A monophonic lead preset synthesizer by elka similar to the moog satellite arp pro soloist it has 11 presets that can be changed with cutoff resonance attack release vibrato portamento and wow (filter envelope) for a full description and sound example go to the very in depth review on http://www.till-kopper.de/elka_solist505.html it has the famous moog ladder filter probably came out before moog caught up with companies and clamped down on it. Really nice action keys, fully functioning and quite rare. This is a pretty heavy item and can be collected if desired from welwyn garden city or stanstead abbots in herts."

Update via Qwave in the comments: "See here for the hidden Moog filter:
http://till-kopper.de/elka_solist505.html

But don't expect Moog sounds from this. But it is not bad for a organ company."
