I hate to say it, but you could have bought a couple of second-hand A-stations or a new `Xiosynth for that kind of money ;-) Yes, it's not analogue, but it *is* subtractive and it's a lot of synth for the money.  

I bet it would be easy enough to make EX800 clones, you'd just need to roll up a CPLD with the divider chain in it.
