The CS-30 is a large, knob infested, black analog synthesizer with traditional features. It is a monophonic synth with extensive analog control and shaping. It has two oscillators with separate outputs, two VCF resonant filters, two VCA amplifiers and three envelopes. It also features a ring modulator, external audio triggering and a simple but useful 8-step sequencer for use as a sketch pad, pattern or arpeggio effect. The CS-30 does not have any on-board effects, memory nor MIDI. Although the CS-30 is just a monophonic synth with a short 44 note keyboard it offers a lot of programming flexibility, and plenty of knobs."

Roland SH-2

via this auction
"This is a Roland SH-2 mono, analog synth that remains one of the hottest, most sought after keyboards of all time. This is a really cool, small, lightweight (18lbs) unit that is ideal for laying down warm solid bass lines, and fat in a nice clean funky way for great soaring leads.

This synth features 2 detunable oscillators for a big thick sound and also sports a third sub-oscillator to really make things interesting. The two oscillators each feature 5 waveforms (pulse, square, sawtooth, sine and noise) in the 32' to 2' range for a broad sonic palate. And unlike a lot of older, analog synths this thing stays in tune"
