| There was a bit of buzz on VSE about a music mag that ships with DIY music gadgets. The most recent issue shipped with an analog Synthesizer so I ordered a bunch, after having the page translated by a friend. I just finished assembly which took about 20 minutes. You'll need a very small phillips screwdriver. It takes 4 AA batteries and has an audio In and Out along with built in speakers. I'm also contemplating bending it with that Radioshack experimental lab joint. 
^ This the bookstore in Manhattan New York, where I ordered it from for ~45USD. 
^There they are on the counter. They come in a box and the magazine is attached to the underside. 
^^ Easy to follow instructions in Japanese. 
^The box showing the board. 
^^ The underside showing the few wires that need connecting. I did leave a single unit at the store for anyone else interested and they said they could easily order more. I had to record the audio straight into a microphone so the quality is live. http://www.producersedgemagazine.com/mp3s/gakkenSX-150.mp3 The clicks are me juggling the unit, mic and the wand. The wand generates different pitches along the ribbon controller. I didn't get much from the attack or Pitch Envelope. The Cut off...really cut off the volume.
