    Description

    Used  DW-8000
    Works
    Great analog synth sound
    Used by Depeche Mode, Dream Theater, Keith Emerson, Divine Masquerade and Juno Reactor.
    Digitally controlled analog synth hybrid.
    8 voice polyphony in two modes.
    Parameters can be altered in real time via a single programmable slider. There are 64 presets that can be reprogrammed by the user.
    The keyboard will load settings
    /presets
    from tape patches or wav files. I used my ipad and a minijack to 1/4 connector with waveforms that I found online (pallium dot com has lots of help with this keyboard).
    This is sold as is. It works, not every aspect has been tested, however, all keys are functional, audio outputs are functional, MIDI was functional when tested over 1 year ago.
    Joystick is slightly bent, missing top knob, tested and functioning well.
    Currently, the keyboard needs to have the settings
    re
    loaded through an audio patch after being powered off.
    It needs the battery updated.
    I am selling it because I do not have the space. I would update the battery and use it otherwise. It sounds incredible.
    See photos for condition.
