Analog one-oscillator monosynth, looking very similar to the Korg MicroPreset pictured here. I never really did anything with this one, but on the other hand making music was far from my mind when I got this one. I just bought it because I had always been interested in sythesizers, and music made with them. Plus, it was dirt cheap. As far as synths go, this one was so simple that it wasn’t even particularly interesting. It had selectable basic waveforms (square, triangle and sine, and possibly even noise, I think) and a lowpass filter which could be modulated by an envelope. It may be possible that several wave forms could be selected simultaneously, but I’m not sure. No other modulation was possible, so this was strictly a beep-and-bwaaooouunngg-machine. I only listened to it through its crappy internal speaker, so for all I know it could secretly be the ultimate bass machine. I sold it quite quickly, and bought a Roland JX-1 instead.
