Italian Mono-Synth

The Synthetone SX-1000 is an old Italian basic mono-synth. It has a single analog DCO with three waveforms: sawtooth, square, and PWM (Pulse Width Modulation). There is an analog filter (12dB/octave) with cutoff, resonance, and LFO modulation. There is also a simple ADSR envelope for shaping your sounds.There are also white/pink noise generators, a glide effect and a vibrato effect. It's known for fairly stable tuning too.
