"Note: the red LED on button #14 on this unit doesn't light. The button itself is fully functional however, and the green LED for that button works fine. It has been priced slightly lower to reflect this.
Fully tested. Please note that the LED for Step 14 does not light up."

Doepfer Dark Energy I

"Doepfer Dark Energy MK I, the first model with the legendary and since discontinued Curtis chips. It was based on the Doepfer MS-404 which was a TB 303 adjacent synth with its own character. Suffice to say it can do some blistering acid leads, but this thing is extremely versatile, check the posted videos for what I mean.
This is a a compact and powerful monophonic analog synthesizer. Known for its robust build, intuitive interface, and rich sound, the Dark Energy is an excellent tool for both studio musicians and live performers. Its semi-modular design allows for vast sound shaping possibilities without the need for patch cables, but it also provides a myriad of patch points for modular connectivity.
This thing has a HUGE sound. The first time I performed with this on a big system I was blown away but its density within the soundstage.
Key Features:
Pure Analog Signal Path: VCO, VCF, VCA, LFO, and envelope generator are all 100% analog for a rich and organic sound.
Semi-Modular Design: Ready to play out of the box with no patching required, but offers extensive patch points for modular integration.
USB/MIDI Integration: While it has an analog heart, the Dark Energy MK I seamlessly integrates with modern setups via USB and MIDI connections.
Versatile Sound Shaping: From deep basses to piercing leads and intricate modulations, it’s a synthesizer that can wear many sonic hats.
Compact Footprint: Its small size is perfect for any setup, from a crowded studio to a portable live rig."

via this auction
"Original vintage Moog MiniMoog Model D in gorgeous playing condition, freshly serviced, and 100%. This is easily the beefiest sounding, and most STABLE mini I’ve have the pleasure of owning, absolute TANK. Just the phattest, nastiest, most delicious analog synth of all time. Every knob, switch, key and function have been meticulously cleaned. She tunes up straight away, and STAYS that way. Scaling freshly calibrated and excellent."

Akai AX80 Synthesizer - Fully Serviced, Upgraded, New Cedar End Cheeks
Note: links to listings are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"This Akai AX-80 came to me with the dreaded membrane buttons not working. I had my synth tech go thru it with a fine toothed comb. He re-flowed all the solder on all the circuit boards for the buttons, recapped the power supply, & upgraded the EPROM with the latest OS/Firmware that allows you to upload individual SYSEX files via MIDI, and replaced the battery. I also made some new custom end cheeks from 50 year old cedar that I had on hand, clear coated with poly. Original cheeks included. Plays great, although it is a vintage (40 year old) unit and has it’s quirks. Factory banks loaded as well as User A & B loaded with custom patches (a few sound like Yazoo and Depeche Mode patches!) This is is a fantastic old synth and especially sounds great through some reverb and delay! You won’t find a fully functioning one this nice very easily."

"I am a professional electronics engineer and I built this personally. This is very old school as it uses the extremely hard to find SN76477 IC which was very popular in 1970s and 80s video games (think space invaders). The sounds that you can make with this are phenomenal! For more information see the link below. [here]"
