via this auction
"Sequential Circuits Prophet 10, REV 3, analog 10 voice polyphonic synthesizer serial # 91 manufactured 1981 in very nice but not mint condition, for a thirty year old electronic musical instrument. New lower price with a low reserve, the Prophet 10 has the early basic MIDI circa 1983-84 in/out only retrofitted by SC, according to the updated addendums 1982-83 to the original SC owners manual dated sept. 1981, also comes with 5 original SC foot pedals and a custom made for the P 10 Ultimate A-frame type adjustable height stand to hold the synth , and a Anvil type flight case which holds all the pedals as well. Also included are several rare, I believe CEM ic chips for future backups that were accumulated by the previous owner of this synth. The synth plays 100% , except the poly- sequencer and obsolete tape drive I have not used at all, so I cannot be certain about the sequencer. All other controls do function including the pitch/mod wheels, poly-mod sections, the LFO sections, glide, etc. I was told buy the previous owner when I bought this P 10, that it does need about 10-15 minutes or so to properly warm up. I was playing it some today mixing waveforms/oscillators and and running them through the P 10's VCF's and all keys upper and lower do sound, the VCA on these P 10 analogs produce powerful and loud pads/chords, bass, and or lead sounds, and all 10 voices play loud and clear, I noticed today while playing this P 10, that you can just hit one preset note ,one key and it will sound two or three or even multiple voices on just the one note/key, I am not sure if the original factory presets are still in memory, but there are a lot of different awesome sounds in both upper and lower banks. There are no broken or missing knobs or controls anywhere and all leds appear to work. Shipping weight is about 150 lbs. total"
