I tried to stay true to the components of the original Roland 700, but I ran out of real estate so I sacrificed a few of the redundant utility modules. I used clones from Pharmasonic in Japan. The founders were involved with Roland. The modules sound amazing.
This was built into the back of a Vox 4x12 speaker cabinet. I kept the speakers and purchased the Vox Head that went with it. It is a digital amp with tube distortion but with loads of FX to play with. It sounds huge!


It kind of wants to be 8 note polyphonic, but there's no easy way to do that with just the sequencer and S&Hs.
Needs active mults and a mixer. I get how it could be patched, but it seems tedious,
especially to group CV the oscillators.
There's tons of potential there, the essentials x 8,
but it's missing about one row more (more or less) of what would make it great.
That sequencer is taking up a lot of room...
What's that little power supply in the lower left do?

There is also a Nifty Keys that goes with this synth: ModularGrid Rack
including 8 note polyphony and an output mixer. Plus when I want more control over melodies, a sequencer and a sampler.


Lastly, I do have another support skiff which I had not updated on ModularGrid (it was a 6U 104 rack, which I broke down part of it on Nifty Keys the other is a 104hp 3U skiff which I just updated here): ModularGrid Rack
The little power thing is a monster power supply by Synthrotek. These are all analog modules so they don't have tremendous draw. Also I didn't mention in my post that most I built most of the Pharmasonic modules.
Thanks for your insights, you arrived at them quickly and exposed that I in fact failed to share that extra row, more or less that you spoke of. Still, I'm not thrilled with the Behringer 305; so likely I'll replace it.


I'm not giving up:

here is the complete skiff:
ModularGrid Rack

sorry, it's not showing all the modules:
Left to right:
Sample and Hold
Mixer
Amp./envelope follower/Integrator
Noise Generator/Rig Mod
Frequency Central Process 26 (ARP 2600 styled Volt Processor)
3 Mults
Analog Switch
Between these three racks/skiffs all modules are accounted for on the original Roland 700 Synth.
