Bad Gear - Moog Spectravox
video upload by AudioPilz
"Today we are going to talk about Spectravox and as I might be the only synth person on the internet who didn’t get either their CS-80 for suburban dads or totally AI-free music generating Buchla ripoff, I have to resort to the strange one that seems like a more expensive version of that FX pedal they released 20 years ago.

Roland SH-5 44-Key Monophonic Analog Synthesizer SN 450417

"The 1976 Roland SH-5 is a legendary monophonic analog synthesizer, revered for its advanced features and powerful sound. A predecessor to the SH-7, the SH-5 stands out with its comprehensive array of controls and sound-shaping capabilities, making it one of the most versatile mono-synths ever produced.
Equipped with two analog VCOs offering triangle, ramp, square, and pulse waveforms, two LFOs, two filters, two VCAs, and both white and pink noise generators, the SH-5 has everything you need to create a wide range of sounds. The oscillators can be modulated by the LFOs or the ADSR envelope generator, giving you extensive control over your sound design. The two LFOs include adjustable rate and waveshape settings, with options for ramp, reverse ramp, triangle, sine, square, and delay, plus a Sample + Hold feature for added versatility.
The dual multi-mode filters are a highlight, offering high-pass, low-pass, and band-pass filtering with controls for cutoff, resonance, keyboard tracking, envelope sensitivity, and modulation. An additional band-pass-only filter expands the sonic possibilities even further. The two VCAs provide Attack/Release and ADSR envelopes, which can be triggered by the Sample + Hold, LFO #2, or an external audio trigger input.
The SH-5's mixer section allows you to adjust the levels of noise, VCO1, VCO2, ring mod, and external signals independently, and each of these signals can be routed through the VCA, multi-mode filter, band-pass filter, or both. The synthesizer also features stereo output with panning controls, portamento, and a ring modulator that adds even more depth to its sound-shaping capabilities.
Built around massive analog oscillators and robust multi-mode filters, the SH-5 delivers punchy, powerful bass, monstrous leads, and wild effects. Its sound is often compared to the highly sought-after System 100/700 modular units, but with a unique character all its own. The SH-5’s filters are particularly notable for retaining bass even when the resonance is cranked, unlike the SH-7. The resonant bandpass filter, used in parallel, produces stunning results, making this synth a powerhouse for creating serious electronic and dance music.
This particular SH-5 is in exceptionally clean condition and is fully functional, a rare find for a synthesizer of this age. It includes the original manual and cover, making it a complete and valuable addition to any collection."

Roland SH-7 44-Key Duophonic Analog Synthesizer SN 700514

via this listing, also on Reverb
"The Roland SH-7 is a rare and highly sought-after duophonic analog synthesizer, produced between 1978 and 1981. As one of the rarest models in the Roland SH series, the SH-7 offers a wealth of creative control and sound design possibilities. It features two oscillators, one LFO, a 12db/octave low-pass and high-pass filter, two ADSR envelopes, a ring modulator, a noise generator, and 44 keys, along with CV and Gate functionality for seamless integration with other analog gear.
What sets the SH-7 apart from other SH models is its expanded feature set, including syncable VCOs, an external audio input, additional waveform shapes, and both white and pink noise generators with sample and hold. The mixer section allows for distortion of audio signals, making it ideal for crafting brash techno sounds. Despite its power and flexibility, the SH-7 is user-friendly, offering the standard SH sound with added depth and tweakability.
In terms of design, the SH-7 is considered one of the most beautiful and unusual vintage synthesizers Roland has ever built, with a layout that surpasses traditional synth modules. It excels in dynamic solos, bass, lead, and effect sounds, and has even been used by legendary bands like INXS.
This synthesizer is in very good condition, showing only light wear on the face panel. One original key has been repaired after a crack, which is shown in the pictures. The unit comes with the original manual, making it a complete and functional piece of vintage analog history."

Pics of the inside below.
"This SLM Concert Spectrum string synthesizer keyboard was produced by Welson Synthesizer from 1975-76. Italian-made, stereo analog string/brass/piano synthesizer was made famous by Richard Tandy of The Electric Light Orchestra and Gregg Rolie of Journey.
The Concert Spectrum features:
61 keys (C2 - C7)
Split (between E4 and F4) that allows different sounds to be set for lower and higher keys
5 sound presets that can be layered (Cello, Violin, Horn&Trumpet, Piano, Harpsichord), with on/off buttons
10 volume sliders, 2 for each sound, setting the level of each preset in the total sound, 1 for each split section
4 decay sliders (actually: release sliders), 2 for the sustained section (Cello, Violin, Horn&Trumpet) (1 for each split section), 2 for the percussive section (Piano, Harpsichord) (1 for each split section)
Concert Effect
Stereo output (2 unbalanced mono jack outputs, with individual volume controls) on the back
2 connectors for optional volume pedals
Pitch (tuning) potentiometer
This synthesizer will need to be serviced to be fully functional. It powers on and produces a quiet sound for some of the sound presets but not all. The power cord has some fraying near the plug, and it will need repair as well. Pots and sliders have been scratchy when tested but not consistantly."
