via the listing: "Here is a hard to find item! I was one of the few who actually received their order of this very unique/bizaar modular synthesizer. Very small in size, it is a hybrid (ergo chimera) of Digital (DSP synthesis) and Analog (VCF and interface + potential CV control)... This is a video I made of this very unit a few years ago:"

"I was using my microkorg to control the midi input of the ChimeraSynthesis BC-16. The patch was rather simple, mainly exploring timbres of this fun synth."
