"Very beautiful Korg 800 DV Mono/Duo synthesizer from 1975.
It is a very amzing synthesizer capable of many sound modulations. It includes 2 VCOs, 2 VCFs, 2 VCA envelopes and much more like ring mod, chorus waveforms etc.
This synthesizer has been fully serviced and works great.
All the potentiometers and sliders have been cleaned and lubricated,
the keyboard conctacts have been cleaned, the Power supply has been recapped, The output/input jack section has been cleaned."
"Superb condition with just a few minor nicks, just one slider cap missing, output is very clean.
This is the very rare original WHITE livery version, I've never seen any others, I usually only come across the yellow livery version, most looking pretty battered and rarely fully working.
The only thing I need to tell you about this synth is that the power is permanently fixed on, so you have to turn it off at the mains rather than on the synth, other than that she is in beautiful physical and working condition, all knobs, sliders and other functions, including it's very unique touch bar, are all fully working as they should and the output is as clean as a whistle."
"Includes a 3D printed attachment which makes the Korg Monotron's ribbon keyboard much easier to play by adding tactile keys. It fits all three Monotron models: Original, Duo, and Delay. This attachment allows for greater precision and reduces the time needed to competently play a melody. Also, it helps train your fingers to make Monotrons easier to play without the attachment. After using this tool for months you'll never want to play a Monotron without it."

"We thought there wasn't really anything decent info out there on this rarity so here's a video that sheds some light on the Wersi Wersimatic 24 A & B units.
Wersimatic 24 is an analog drum machine, bass / chord arpeggiator generator similar to the Elgam Carousel, Elka Wilgamat, Godwin Drummaker 45 and Böhm Solist units, The Wersimatic 24 was manufactured in Germany in the early 1970s. These were also part of various model Wersi organs of the era, such as the Helios that featured the "Wersimatic II" auto-comp section and they seem to be identical in controls and sounds. The Wersimatic 24 is a bit different than your regular auto-accompaniment machine since the keyboard is a separate instrument: it holds the circuit boards and sound generators for the melodic section and sports its own volume slider and audio jack output. The keyboard is powered by the drum machine unit via a DIN cable though, and the tempo is regulated on the drum machine as well.
24 drum patterns with 8 mutable sounds 12 rhythmic chord/bass/arpeggiator patterns Bass section with one sound 3 chord sounds 2 arpeggiator sounds (the second arpeggiator sound is not functioning at the moment)
The bass covers two octaves, which is rare for this type of machine (the Elgam Carousel, Elka Wilgamat has a one octave bass section only) and can generate almost synth like arpeggiator patterns.
We like this machine a lot, especially the bass section and the drum sounds are really raw and industrial sounding.
Sorry for dirty fingernails, it's black paint residue - not dirt - promise.
