Akai AX80 Synthesizer - Fully Serviced, Upgraded, New Cedar End Cheeks

Note: Auction links 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."

1984 Akai AX80 Polyphonic Analogue Synthesizer + Original Case + Foot Pedal

"If you know, you know! Regarding this one, I am the first owner (technically, my household was as my mother purchased this brand new in Tallahassee, FL in 1985, used it very little in a church setting, and kept it cased otherwise). You aren’t likely to fine a cleaner example of this synth. I’d list this as mint but it has been played and there is the one small area of the top/right display that has a tiny orange streak. All else works well and this doesn’t impact visibility or practical functioning in any way. This is as near-mint as it gets for something created in 1984."

I hope he doesn't regret selling this one.

"This vintage AX60 is fully functional and in very good condition. Recently serviced by Switched On and sounds great!

The AX60 is among some of the last true analog polysynths of the mid-eighties. It was Akai's answer to the hugely successful Roland Juno series and Yamaha's new digital DX-series. The AX60 is a programmable six-voice synth with a nice LFO, lowpass (VCF) filter, envelope sections, and more. An eight-voice version, the AX80, was already available.

Programming this synth is easy using dedicated sliders, knobs and/or buttons for its parameters. It also has a useful noise generator and some other cool functions that include auto-tuning, chorus, a multi-mode arpeggiator and a keyboard that can be split into two key-zones, making it somewhat bi-timbral. All six voices can be stacked in unison mode for a powerful and thick lead sound. Its features and sound make the AX60 a worthy alternative to Roland's Juno 106."

"Eight-voice programmable polyphonic analog synthesizer with a full 61-note keyboard. LCD displays use a simple and intuitive format to show all its parameters and values. Two analog oscillators per voice plus a sub oscillator provide the basis of its punchy analog sounds that can be described as similar to a Chroma Polaris or a Roland Juno 106. Very good bass, brass, synth sounds, and effects are possible."
