OBERHEIM SYNTH

In the days when new synths were astonishing, the music business was a very different place to work, and sadly, saving pennies isn't how it worked then. 
If you look at the real cost of those old beauties in 1980 several, and see what else your money would have bought you might not think the price is so steep .They were a lot of money to develop and design and build and market and support, and times have changed.I for one am glad the old stuff still has fans, they were exciting then and were very nicely made (overlooking the Molex connector I admit) and continue to sound great despite much that has arrived since.The more than 6 voice Xpander was the Matrix 12, but if a job needs 12 voice, hire a second Xpander for that gig. 
A Matrix 6 under the Xpander was quite close for (people with less than 12 fingers) me. 2 Matrix 1000s are pretty good too and have real 12 note mode too.

    Interesting. The SEM is tempting, though it's a lot of buck for a single
note unit. Now, if he decided to come out with a more than six voice version
of the Xpander I'd start saving pennies for one.
