info SYNTH MODULE Main panel features a basic segment display, 3 knobs and 18 push buttons. The bulky case is non-standard format cannot be rackmounted - design is quite close to model Solton like progammer 24 or Ketron Polyvox (not the russian monosynth).

terminal connectors:
- main signal out
- Midi interface
- damper pedalswitch input
- tape interface (for sound storage).

MIDI in edit mode it is possible to edit all parameters USER-patches using CONTROL CHANGE.
The list is printed on the machine and it is not very standard - this is indeed a very nice feature, sadly, the Midi buffer quickly chokes thus freezing the whole system.
