I picked one of these up a couple of weeks ago for 20ukp.
Can't remember the number - either PS-1 or PS-2 percussion synthesiser.
It's a nice toy - controls for pad sensitivity, decay, lfo rate, lfo
wave, lfo depth, pitch, and pitch sweep.
Lots of nice cheesy pows and whoops (-ve pitch sweep) to be had.
The lfo goes fast enough to do fm type noises too.
If anyone has the schematics for this, I'd be very interested.
