Casio VZ-10M Digital Synthesizer
via this auction
"The VZ-10m is a sixteen voice, multitimbral digital synthesizer rack (2U) with velocity/aftertouch. It sounds similar to Yamaha FM based synths, but offers 8 oscillators per voice (with many routing options), 8 waveforms and 8 stage envelopes per oscillator. Patch memory contains 64 user locations and supports RAM/ROM cards. Performance features include LFO and portamento.
Key Features
1. Aftertouch: Modifies pitch, LFO (depth and rate), amplitude EG levels and portamento rate or time
2. Architecture Class: phase
3. Audio IO: Headphones 2 mono, 1 mix phone and XLR mix outputs
4. Audio Source: Waveforms available for each oscillator are sine, 5x saw, white or pink noise.
5. Communication Interface: MIDI In, Out, Thru
6. Effects: None
7. EG: Dedicated, 8 stage EG's (with polarity) modify each oscillator's pitch and amplitude
8. Expansion: Patch card
9. Filter: N/A
10. Form Factor: 2U rack
11. Key Scaling: Modifies portamento time, EG levels and rates (6 points)
12. LFO: Both the vibrato LFO and tremelo LFO waveforms include up saw, down saw, square and triangle
13. Memory: None
14. Multitimbral: 4
15. Pedal Inputs: None
16. Performance Control: Portamento
17. Polyphony: 16 or 4
18. Power: AC (IEC C13 to NEMA 5-15P)
19. Released: 1988 1988
20. Sequencer: No
21. Signal Class: digital
22. Velocity: Switches patches and modify EG levels and rates (8 curves)"

Elektron Sid Station C64 Midi Synth
via this auction
"It uses the C64 MOS 6581 chip for killer wavetabled 8 bit sounds. This machine is a classic and a rarity due to the scarcity of the chips."
