Excellent limited-edition keyboard. A fantastic range of sounds available. Two VCO per voice with the capability of doubling and splitting voice across kbd. Multimode filter, Hard sync, Sine/Sq/Saw/PWM/RING Mod VCOs. Only drawback is lack of MIDI (working on an interface!!) and unwieldy sequencer. Seq. is useful for short, repeating loops. Synthex is a favourite of JMJ/Stevie Wonder. Used for that infamous thundering Laser Harp twang! Don't hesitate to mail me forinformation.

Comments About the Sounds:
Excellent multimode filter
