That had to have one of the more bizarre setups I've ever seen.  Right now I'm 
talking to a guy who wants that manual,  but we're still talking and have 
been for a while,  so it's still available,  as far as that goes.  (First one 
to make payment for it gets it :-).

It had a set of master oscillators _and_ top-octave synthesizer chips,  with 
separate sets of dividers,  and "animation" plus vibrato to liven things up a 
bit...
