Ik zag toevallig deze advertentie op ebay en deze (preset)synth deed me wel heel erg denken aan de SH-2000 van Roland.
Plaatje Multivox
Plaatje SH-2000
Na wat zoekwerk ben ik het een en ander te weten gekomen...
Multivox
Multivox was an American company formed in the mid '70's who marketed Japanese-made keyboards whose designs were very similar to more popular manufacturers (especially Roland). They faded into synth history by the early 80's.
Sound on Sound over de Roland RS-202 en de Multivox MX-202.

Op deze japanse site kwam ik ook nog wat info tegen. Waaronder dit: ESQ01 Firstman sequencer+mono synth...TB303 like

The SQ-01 is a microprocessor-controlled sequencer with an onboard monophonic synthesizer and a single-octave, 13-note (C-C) capacitance (touch) keyboard painted onto its main panel. It was marketed mainly by Multivox, who frequently distributed other companies' instruments.
The synthesizer section has knobs for tune, fine tune for the single VCO, and for cutoff frequency and resonance for the filter. The envelope generator can be set ASR or AR with knobs controlling the release time and sustain level. There is also a master volume knob for the synthesizer.
Ik vind dit een heel interessant bakkie!

Firstman International
We are still researching the company, Firstman International. Until we get more information about them, we do have one of their instruments, the SQ-01. Their instruments may be connected to a company called Sorkin who were also connected to Multivox and Hillwood.
En op keyboardmuseum.org zijn ook nog wat foto's te vinden.
Iemand die nog meer info heeft? Interessante synths...en misschien een kopie.
