Akai AX 60 programmable six voice synthesizer keyboard vintage synth

Selling an Akai AX60. Truly a unique sounding analog synth from the 80s. It’s been considered somewhat of a sleeper synth but has developed notoriety over the years and has been featured on releases from Bjork, Oneohtrix Point Never, Laurel Halo and Sophie to name a few. The one pictured for sale does have some scratches and blemishes on the metal panel and also has alternate knobs. The akai was serviced a couple years ago and the sliders were switched out with leds. Feel free to reach out with any questions. Below a description from vintage synth. The AX60 is among some of the last true analog polysynths of the mid-eighties. It was Akai's answer to the hugely successful Roland Juno series and Yamaha's new digital DX-series. The AX60 is a programmable six-voice synth with a nice LFO, lowpass (VCF) filter, envelope sections, and more. An eight-voice version, the AX80, was already available. Programming this synth is easy using dedicated sliders, knobs and/or buttons for its parameters. It also has a useful noise generator and some other cool functions that include auto-tuning, chorus, a multi-mode arpeggiator and a keyboard that can be split into two key-zones, making it somewhat bi-timbral. All six voices can be stacked in unison mode for a powerful and thick lead sound. Its features and sound make the AX60 a worthy alternative to Roland's Juno 106.
