"This DX-5 has a rare internal ROM upgrade, which was installed by one of their top techs at the Orange County Yamaha facility, so this is as up to date as possible. Few DX-5s have that upgrade.

Besides combining two DX-7 synths in one package with the improved D/A outputs for less noise, they used the best feeling key bed I have played. As most know, this is a DX1 packed in a smaller package but without the elaborate displays of the DX-1or the weight. The DXs layered creates an incredible fat sound. I still get many comments from people that hear it."

"Arp Avatar in good working condition, comes with the original arp midipickup."

The synth that brought ARP down. Dave Smith touches on it at 5:03 in this recent video. It's worth noting ARP actually created the Rhodes Chroma as their final poly synth. Unfortunately is wasn't enough and/or didn't make it in time to save them. They were sold to Rhodes and the ARP Chroma became the Rhodes Chroma.

Waterfall keys.

"A great sounding synth here, often overlooked but well appreciated for its sub oscillator and ext input.
Some models get hyped and others are sleeper synths, this is one of the latter.
Typical Roland quality.
Doesn't seem like it has been gigged or abused, sounds clean and amazing.

Features
Pulse Width Modulation (PWM)
Square Wave
Ramp
Noise
ADSR
Modulation

The external input feature very useful for sending audio through the excellent sounding VCF."

Sequential Multi-trak (1985) - Dave's Space Harpsichord

Published on Jan 13, 2016 skrapadelix

"There doesn't seem to be many demos of the CEM3394-based Multi-trak for some reason (maybe because it's a teeny bit crap?). Anyway here's a quick one of mine recorded a couple of years ago. The noise floor is atrocious, the chorus is weak, the VCOs drift, and the membrane buttons are dodgy. Overall it sounds thin, fizzy and futuristic - like some kind of broken space harpsichord. I love it."
