I just went to see Male Instrumenty (http://www.maleinstrumenty.pl) at the Unsound Festival here and one of the lads was using this amazing synth that seemed to be in a breifcase of some sort. Anyone know what it is? Make/model? Does it go for a lot these days? This is the picture I took of it

Amazing synth.
Last person I saw using one live was Kevin Martin as The Bug.

Heard loads of good things about this but again it's expensive.

you should totally save up and get an ARP 2500 VST graham - that'd be cool

Jaysus. Size of that thing. That must go for mega $$
