Absolutely incredible synth! Seriously rich sounding - does creamy leads and thick phat thumping bass!
Based on the Minimoog. Patch memory, 3 VCOs, 3 LFOs, 4 EGs, 2 VCFs: Moog-style ladder 24db & Oberheim-style 12db filters, ring mod, noise, sync, glide, PWM, fuzz/overdrive switch for saturated distortion, external in, MIDI in/out/thru, 3-voice paraphony.
• Nova Edition (not to be confused with the standard model - see below)
• Fully working
• Comes with SE-3X OS firmware chip upgrade
• Internal Battery changed recently
• Power lead included
The front panel (that you see when in a rack) is in excellent condition as pictured. Has some scratches on the top/bottom but not seen when racked.
(From Studio Electronics website):
NOVA EDITION:
- The second VCO now boasts a silky "ARP-ish" sine wave which replaces the more industrial strength triangle,
- a switchable "Fuzz" circuit for amp overdrive and saturation,
- snappier envelopes,
- discrete filters with an expanded frequency range,
- seven banks of S.E. sound design which demand satisfaction: four legendary SE-1X factory banks; three designer sets: the techno-focused Scroggins Synquence, and brand new Infared and Diademer––693 presets in total! The last RAM bank (bank 8) is on you. (Banks 5-8 can be overwritten)
FEATURES added with SE-3X OS EPROM:
- Paraphonic Mode for easy and electric '3X chords and colors.
- Front Panel control for Oscillator 2 & 3 Fine Tune.
- Front Panel control for Oscillator Levels.
- LFO Gate from our BOOMSTAR / MIDIMINI V30.
- LFO Gate Tempo Hold: rate stays steady during program change.
- OMEGA / SE-02 Envelope routines + the original linear & magical quasi-exponential ENVs.
- Exponential Glide routine from the OMEGA and '1X Linear Glide.
- New Front Panel Screen Jumps & Shortcuts.
- Last Patch Used recall on Power Recycle.

VOICE ARCHITECTURE
VCOs:
Three voltage controlled discrete analog oscillators. Osc 1 waveforms: triangle, sawtooth and variable width square; Osc 2 waveforms: sine, sawtooth and variable width square; Osc 3 waveforms: triangle, sawtooth and variable width square. All waveforms output simultaneously. Osc 1 syncs to Osc 2 and 3.
VCFs:
Two voltage controlled discrete analog filters: 24db (classic Moog), 12db (classic Oberheim). 12db filter incorporates low pass and band pass modes. Filter frequency range expanded by a whole tone.
Envelopes:
Four multiple stage envelope generators, attack, decay, sustain and release with inverting and multiple triggering. Envelope 1 fixed to filter frequency. Envelope 2 fixed to amplifier level. Envelopes 3 and 4 are assignable. ADSR speed increased from standard SE-1X.
LFOs:
Three low frequency oscillators, triangle, sawtooth, reverse sawtooth, square, noise and random waveforms. One destination and amount for each LFO with key trigger, phase and midi sync.
Glide:
Glide and auto glide, linear or exponential.
Fuzz:
Switchable fixed value hardware amplifier overdrive for saturated distortion.
Presets:
4 factory banks, Scroggins Synquence, Infared and Daidemer.
Additional Features:
Noise generator, hardware ring modulation, external audio input (requires midi trigger to open gate).
Modulation Destinations:
LFOs 1, 2 and 3: VCOs 1, 2 and 3 frequency; VCOs 1, 2 and 3 mix level; VCOs 1, 2 and 3 pulse width; ring mod mix level; noise mix level; VCF resonance; VCF frequency and volume. Envelopes 3 and 4: VCOs 1, 2 and 3 frequency; VCOs 1, 2 and 3 mix level; VCOs 1, 2 and 3 pulse width; ring mod mix level; noise mix level; LFO 1, 2 and 3 rate and depth and VCF resonance.
MIDI Controllers:
Dynamics, modwheel, pressure and breath control: destinations and amounts include all LFO and envelope 3 destinations; bender: pitch and filter frequency; receives program change, bank select, glide on/off, glide time and volume. Fixed continuous controller assignments for all key front panel controls.
MIDI Specifications:
In, out and thru.
