Multivox MX-880 Duo Analog Synthesizer
The instrument
The Multivox MX-880 Duo is a preset monophonic analog synthesizer with a 3-octave, 37-note (C-C) keyboard with aftertouch. He was originally launched as the MX-2000 Duo and has almost exactly the same features and voices as the Roland SH-2000, but the second oscillator makes this synth different. The question of whether Roland granted a licence for the American market remains open.
Details
With the circuitry of the MX-880 it is possible to achieve an infinite number of sounds. Entire keyboard is tune-able, a semitone in either direction, for pitch versatility while playing as well as tuning to other keyboard or instruments. Modulation speed control regulates speed of the vibrato. random note. and repeat in touch and pre-set modes. A fully variable filter section allows for additional contouring and coloring of notes.
