ABOUT French Synthesizers since 1970 by Ruben & Serge Fernandez, it's a complete synth without modular access, or better: semi modular like the expanders kobol / kobol II, the keyboard has memory instead. Has 8 Step Sequencer with Transpose Function (the Memory Keys work as chase light - very cool)
