Korg 770 // Discrete Analog Synth w/ External Filter Input + Kenton CV / Gate / Filter Mod
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"This synth simply sounds amazing. Think Forbidden Planet meets (early) Synth Punk. So much character just in the proto-MS20 LP/HP traveller filter alone (and you can run external sounds through it - it *loves* drums). Toss in pitched noise and an insanely beautiful ring modulator and you've got a lot more sonic range than your usual 2 oscillator analog monosynth.
Working absolutely *perfectly,* with no scratchy pots, intermittent switches or badly triggering keys. Has just been professionally gone through and serviced by Chris Hewitt (This Old Synth, San Jose, CA). This synth is from the later range of production, which used MS20 knobs instead of the metal bezel ones more commonly seen on a 770. They have a really nice feel and you don't need to worry about the metal bezels falling off like you do with the earlier knobs.
I've added Kenton CV / Gate / Filter inputs on the back (see pics), so it's completely ready to be integrated into a modern studio setup. I've also recapped the power supply, and had it fully checked over & serviced by one of the best synth techs in the Bay Area."

*Vintage* Akai AX60 Analog Synthesizer, 1980’s SN 10725-32528

"One of the great analog synths of the 80’s. Has some really great sounding oscillators and filters, and has a lot of cool features such as an amazing arpeggiator with four different modes, that can also be used for all or only upper or lower voices. So you can make a cool rhythmic sequence with one hand (or held and repeated with the hold button,) while you play a melody on the upper voice. The synth can also be polyphonic or switched to unison mode. The layout is very simple, much like a Juno, but the features far outweigh the Juno’s and most other synths of the time. There’s also midi onboard as well as stereo outputs. The synth is in excellent condition for its age both functionally and cosmetically and you’d be hard pressed to find any nicer. There is very little wear, and all keys, voices, sliders and buttons work as they should without issue."

Roland S770 Sampler - Is It The Best Hardware Sampler Ever Built?
Published on Oct 30, 2018 MOOTANT
"Running through some of the Roland S770 Samplers features. This is applicable to the S range specifically the S770 S750 S760. I will upload a couple more videos on the S range including a proper introduction to the S range.
The Roland S range samplers are excellent due to their warm sound and filters as well as the interface which is very fast to use once you get used to it."
There's also the DJ-70 & DJ-70 mkII keyboards with scratch wheels based on the S770. You can find some info on the DJ-70 on Polynomial here.
