-New coin cell battery and holder
-Several tact switches replaced, all others cleaned
-Encoder desoldered and cleaned
-Full calibration
-Standard IEC cable socket installed
-All new flush-mount LEDs
-All new Tauntek OS which really fleshes out the MIDI spec of the kawai. (Google Tauntek SX-240 for more details...)"

"Very good condition and rare Kawai SX-240 8-voice DCO synthesizer with SSM-2044 Analog filters.
This synth has been fully serviced and calibrated and is working great. Additionally, the hardwired power cable has been replaced with an IEC connector so it works with a standard computer style power cable. Check the video to hear this actual unit in action! Ships from my tech in Washington state."
I need a synth feet label.

KAWAI SX-240 8 VOICE PROGRAMMABLE POLYPHONIC ANALOG SYNTHESIZER
Note: Auction links are affiliate links for which the site may be compensated.
via this auction
"I have owned a lot of analog polysynths, and this one has a unique character that is unlike the Roland Junos or the Korg polysix. Part of that is because it is dual OSC and can do a lot more than those synths. But also, it just sounds refreshingly different. It reminds me just a little of an Akai AX-80 in that it doesn't sound like anything else, but it delivers that classic analog sound; very warm and very large. The lack of dedicated knobs or sliders is not as big of an issue as you might think. Programming is very intuitive, and being able to name your presets is a real luxury. There is no better deal than the Kawai SX-240 when it comes to obtaining a dual OSC (with SUB OSC), analog polysynth with all the features that this has. The effects are the icing on the cake with a rich Chorus, Portamento, Hold and Glissando. AND there is a sequencer."

Reflective tape on the case above the keys.
"The Kawai SX-240 is an eight voice, fully programmable polyphonic analog synthesizer released in 1984 as a follow up to the Kawai SX-210. It was manufactured by Kawai but originally released under the Teisco brand-name in Japan when Kawai bought out Teisco. The Kawai SX-240 and the Kawai SX-210 never got much attention due to entering the market during the time of the digital revolution and poor marketing. Its main analog competitors of the time were the Korg Polysix and the Roland Juno 6/60."

Kawai SX-240 with full MIDI CC!
Published on Mar 25, 2017 Sean Ober
"Thanks to the fine folks at tauntek.com, this minty Kawai SX-240 now responds to MIDI CC. Burned a couple new firmware EPROMs, removed about 8 screws, swapped the chips and done! Such an easy, rewarding mod.
Early stages of this available firmware but damn-near complete... hat's off to tauntek.com This is one of only a few SX-240's in the world, this powerful ;o) Shoot, only about 1000 of these boards might have been made and many, many of those died due to battery leaks. Talk about a rare bird.
I also would like to thank Jordan from Cuff Lynx for selling me this bad boy! Thanks and Save The Wave... SynthWave that is!!!"

"Dual osc, 8 voice analog polysynth. Easy to program. Big and warm sound.
All the keys work. A couple of the buttons take a little love to illuminate.
That pesky NiCad Battery has been replaced with a lithium cell.
Comes with hardshell case."
