Henri Pigmans writes:
A typical 1980's analog 'low end' synth. In general a good fat analog sound editing is difficult. Special feature : the instrument is white The keyboard can double as a midi master keyboard The BIT 99 has more programmable features as its predecessor BIT ONE. Progammable split, keyboard mode, pitchbend, pedal, midi channels etc. All in all a useful instrument.

I am in the proces of writing a patch editor program for it but this 'll take a while

Comments About the Sounds:
Typical Analog sound : FAT

(Thanks to Henri Pigmans for this info.)
