"The M3X is a hand-built, drift-free, MIDI-controlled, rack-mount analog synthesizer from Scottish synth designer Ken MacBeth.
The M3X is similar to the Minimoog in that it features three oscillators and a transistor-ladder filter for warm analog sounds in a simple, streamlined package, although the M3X goes beyond the original Moog.
The M3X has been designed to operate via MIDI or traditional 1V/Octave control voltage input and output, as well as the standard S Trig interface as used by many analog systems.
The M3X has three dedicated oscillators, each with five waveform types and user selectable destinations including cross-modulation capabilities.
In addition to the oscillators, there is a noise generator and an external audio input amp for processing other synths or sound sources.
The filter section is a transistor-ladder type similar to that used in the Moog synthesizers and sounds totally warm and at times harsh (a good harsh).
It offers 24dB/oct low-pass filtering with controls for frequency cutoff, resonance, envelope amount, attack, decay/release and sustain.
The VCA amplifier also features attack, decay/release and sustain controls.
The Mixer section offers volume controls for each of the oscillators, noise generator and external audio input plus a master volume.
The digital menu system provides access to the MIDI, LFO, Portamento, and various tuning and scaling parameters.
Absolutely simple, hands-on and easy to understand but full of big beefy analog sounds."

I've heard these can be modified to have more control over Filtering and LFO
Very funky Clavinet like Analog Synth tone"

KORG monotron 開発秘話
YouTube via jetdaisuke — April 19, 2010 — "超小型ながらも本格シンセサイザー。春のコルグ ブロガーズミーティング2010にて、KORG monotron （コルグ モノトロン）が誕生に至るきっかけエピソードが語られました。KAOSSILATORでおなじみ坂巻さんと、monotronを開発した高橋さんによるデモです。 "
"jetdaisuke - April 19, 2010 - tiny but real synthesizer. Korg Burogazumitingu in spring 2010, KORG monotron (Monotoron Korg) was told that did lead to the birth episode. KAOSSILATOR familiar with Mr. Sakamaki, monotron demo was developed by Takahashi."
Update: Anyone have more info on the white box he plays with at the beginning of the video?
2010 Bent Festival
" The 2010 Bent Festival will take place at 81 Front Street in Dumbo (Brooklyn, NY), April 22-24, 2010. The festival space has been generously donated by Two Trees.The Bent Festival is an annual art and music festival celebrating DIY electronics, hardware hacking, and circuit bending. Each year we invite artists from across the country and around the globe to perform music with their home-made or circuit bent instruments, teach workshops to adults and children alike, create beautiful art installations and to generally come together, face to face, and showcase the state of the art in DIY electronics and circuit bending culture."
