Kawai SX 240 Polyphonic Synthesizer
via this auction
"The Kawai SX 240 was only made in a couple of thousand hence its rarity now, its a 61 -note 8-voice 16-DCO,48 memory MIDI Polysynth made between 1984-85.There is also a 1500-note real time sequencer on board as well,among the earliest MIDI synths made.In good working order ,one or two buttons require a 2nd press , a clean of the contacts will cure this, well made ,was made in Japan, in Hammamatsu i believe, where the mighty Yamaha CS80 was made.In good condition for age and a download manual is available on the web, great for classic analogue electronic sounds, the Brass and Strings are very good."

FORMANTA P-432
via this auction
"FORMANTA P-432 was made in Soviet Union (Russia) by well-known Polivoks/Formanta plant in Kachkanar city. This instrument is analog synthesizer with preset patches and midi. Synth has 37 patches in memory (electronic piano, strings, bass, organ etc.), vibrato and chorus effects. Also there is joystick for pitch/modulation control. It’s a great instrument for any music or collection. my synth is like new, mint condition. Works like it should 100%. Instrument has original configuration: with standard midi in/out/thru, ¼ Jack audio out, 220V power."

Update via soundform in the comments: "Holly crap! It's not an "analogue" synth - it's a fully digital soviet bullshit. Very heavy and sounds like piece of shit. 495$ ??? It costs 30$ max here in Ukraine."
According to ruskeys.net it is indeed digital. You'll find additional info there. Be sure to see the video link above for a bit of what it sounds like.

JH. Fixed Filter Bank
full details here
"The old Moog® Modular System had an option of two different Fixed Filter Bank modules, one with 10 bands, and another one with 14 bands. ("Moog" is a registered Trademark of Moog Mucic (http://www.moogmusic.com).
Both are very unique-sounding, mostly because of the deep notches they produce between adjacent filter bands. Some people also claim it's becuase they used real inductors - wire-wound components that get nonlinear at higher signal levels. I'm not sure if the latter really is such an important factor, because thes efilter banks were designed in a way that in each filter band the signal first passes thru a resonant LC-filter at a certain level, and then passes a second LC-filter at a lower level. So my conclusion would be that the second LC-stage filters out whatever distortion products may or may not be created in the first stage. But then again, a tiny amount of harmonocs may survive, and others may have better ears than I and might hear a difference.
Anyway: I decided to make a PCB that allows both options: real inductors, or electronic inductors, so you can choose for yourself."
