This teardown will help you to better hack and repair the KORG Monotron mini synt.
This battery powered synt is made of a real analog VCO a VCF and a LFO. The VCF is similar to the ancient KORG's classic MS-10 and MS-20. You can use the ribbon keyboard to create an incredible sound of the '70s .
There are a lot of infos on internet but this device deserves an appropriate space on IFIXIT
