Arp pro Soloist

via this auction

"Vintage Arp Pro Soloist analog synthesizer Model 2701 Serial 27-1029... The voices respond but sound like crap in my opinion. They dont sound accurate like if you press trumpet or piano etc it doesnt really sound like a trumpet or piano."

DOEPFER MS404

via this auction

"The sound generating section of the MS-404 is 100% analog (VCO, Noise, VCF, VCA, ADSR, 2 LFO's). Even the envelope and the LFO's are pure analog and not simulated by software. The immediate access to all sound parameters is realised by 15 knobs and 6 switches. The external audio input enables the subsequent sound modeling of other sound sources like samplers, digital synthesizers or expanders.

On top of that the MS404 works as a monophonic MIDI-to-CV interface to control another analog synthesizer. The MS-404 is capable of controlling VCF frequency and VCA envelope amount (accent) via MIDI.

MS-404 Features
- VCO
- - real VCO (no DCO)
- - switchable between sawtooth / off / rectangle (pulse)
- - pulsewidth of rectangle adjustable, pulsewidth modulation with LFO1
- - glide time adjustable, glide on/off via MIDI-Controller #65 (Portamento)
- - frequency modulation with LFO1, even in audio range for producing typical FM sounds
- NOISE
- - white noise as alternative sound source (switcheable instead of VCO)
- VCF

- - 24dB resonance filter (low pass), resonance/emphasis adjustable up to self oscillation
- - frequency may be controlled via any MIDI controller and/or MIDI velocity
