Hi jmn
 
Whenever we need to replace a battery we find out the type number from the
old one and then find an equivalent in the NiMH listings, don't use NiCd.
After fitting the unit should be powered for at least 14 hours to fully
charge the new unit.

No, these synths use a 3V Lithium battery so replace it with a commonly available lithium coin cell of the same size not a NiMH or NiCD.

You should be able to find a lithium coin cell battery at any radio shack/electronics store or drug store. No need to pay ridiculous price for one.
