For sale is an Oberheim Four Voice Synthesizer or FVS-1. It is in excellent condition for its age. And has been kept in an air conditioned house for its entire life. Everything is working great and it does not have any issues; no scratchy pots, no out of tune voices / scaling issues, no intermittent keys, no intermittent switches, etc.
The keyboard was recently rebuilt with new grommets and fresh lubricant. The bus bar and key contacts were polished too. All keys are level and responsive. This keyboard plays smooth!
Some electrolytic capacitors have been replaced.
As you can see from the pictures, a MediaMix aftermarket kit was installed in this synth. The kit features 3 separate master CV (control voltage) adjustment knobs connected to each SEM, a knob to adjust pitch bend intensity, and a knob to adjust VCF bend intensity. Pitch bend is on the X axis and Filter CV (control voltage) is on the Y axis. The small switches turn on and off their related features. The large switch is not connected. The 5 1/8 in jacks are not connected either.
The 4 switches on the top rail of the synth are part of a kit that is still installed, but no longer connected. The 4 switches could potentially add sine wave capabilities to each SEM, but I am not sure if the kit is working properly.
This auction includes an original power cord to interface with the synth.
