Great quality sounding analogue synth, if a little basic. Sweet filter, quiet VCA.
Excellent for learning analogue subtractive synthesis, as the controls are
layed out in a logical manner.
Useful multimode filter. Only one envelope, shared by VCA and VCF, which is a bit
annoying. No gate type envelope for the VCA either, like some Rolands.
Can be MIDI'd no problem with Kenton's superb Pro Solo:

They can also provide you with a CV socket kit for controlling the filter.
There's a modification on hypereal for a VCA socket, but it's a bit pointless,
as it will effectively bypass envelope control of the VCA when you use it.
Could be useful though for MIDI control if you're processing stuff through the
audio input, or using it as a foot controlled (over MIDI) wah/volume for guitar.
Don't pay more than £150 for one though, unless you really like it.
Not exactly fat, but can produce very solid and punchy bass sounds. Also can do nice
analogue effects.
Extremely reliable and easy to service.
