“Hello
This auction is for a Sequential Circuits Split 8 synthesizer in nice condition
This Split-8 synthesizer has been used in our personal studio.
All the buttons, keys and voices work nicely and the patches sound wonderfully warm and vintage.
It’s easy to layer patches and it sounds so fat, lush, and overall incredible especially when played at 2 VCO’s per voice.
Cosmetically there are some areas to take note of. There is some visible rust in areas where the paint has chipped and a larger area of rust that is under the right side of the keybed (see photo). The left endcheek has a split in the wood that goes all the way across and through but it still feels like it’s held on there. The paint on the endcheeks has worn off at the edges. The keys have accumulated some light scratches over the years that is typical of a synthesizer of this age.
Other than the cosmetic flaws noted, this Split-8 is in good shape and appears to have been cared for despite a period of neglect.
It still looks good in my opinion however you can carefully view the photos to get a good idea and judge for yourself.” Link

“Up for sale is the popular SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS SPLIT-8 vintage analog synthesizer.
The unit appears to be working fine to the best of my knowledge, as I went through some basic testing. I noticed one of the white keys (1A) wasn’t reacting too well when pressed and it sometimes skip sound, which I guess could do with some simple adjusting/servicing. Please note I’m not a technician at these and I may have not tested every function.
Cosmetically the unit is in very nice condition as you can see. There are some minor signs of wear and marks here and there, but nothing major. I’m including plenty of pictures so you can see exactly how it looks.
Power cable included.
Sold as is.” Link

“Just serviced by ANALOG STNTH SERVICE which specializes in SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS. Everything works perfect and comes with a copy of the manual. There are some scratches on the side wood panels but other then that it’s a beauty.” Link
” Up for sale a very cool Sequential Circuits Split-8 Synthesizer, in nice cosmetic condition, it has couple small scratches , but it is fully functional also has a new battery, the patches are mine but you can make your own if you don’t like them, it is really easy to program a patch, needles to say I actually like it better than the Roland Juno 106, because you can split this synth in two so it’s like having two synths in one, The keyboard features splits and layers like I said , all of which can be saved with patch data. ” Link

“SEQUENTIAL CIRCUITS SPLIT EIGHT ANALOG SYNTHESIZER
Used in good working condition.
Display is bright, all audio outputs and midi work as they should. No missing knobs or broken keys. Pitch bend and mod wheels function perfect. Auto tunes itself upon boot as it should.
This is REAL analog and its fat and raw.
Great for those Rick Wakeman leads, 1980′s synth basses and other numerous sounds like effects and percussion.
Whats great about the Split Eight is that you can SPLIT or LAYER sounds something you could not do on a Six Trak or even Prophet 5. Plus it has Midi!
Unit is USED so please do not expect something that came out of a box. This is from the 1980s and has seen some use. Has a few scratches but nothing major.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.

” Sequential Circuits Split 8 in GREAT condition. Everything works as expected and cosmetically it is in excellent condition.
The Split 8 is a great sounding synth and features 8 voices, the ability to play two sounds at once, with split or layer, and of course MIDI!
It is somehow not as popular as the Six Trak despite an almost identical architecture. And it is superior in a number of ways.
Most importantly, it has more voices, but mainly it is because it is much easier to program than the Six Trak.
The Split 8 has a well set up program matrix printed on the top panel. It’s really easy to jump around to different
parameters and make changes. I owned the Six Trak, and although it was fully multi-timbrel, I can’t imagine
ever wanting to use 6 different sounds from it. It just wouldn’t happen. But I can totally see using 2 sounds, or layering
2 sounds to get a nice phat pad, or splitting the keyboard to use two different sounds, and having individual volume control
over each part is super flexible. And in unison mode it is HUGE.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.
“Up for auction is a not entirely functioning Sequential Circuits Split-Eight synthesizer. It powers on, but the keyboard doesn’t appear to be communicating with the other circuitry in the correct way. Some of the controls have approximately correct response, but this thing is in general disrepair and will likely need some kind of service overhaul. It is sold for parts, or not fully working. AS-IS!
It is also missing one rubber button (front panel, pictured) and one key has a chip in it (also pictured).” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.
“You’re looking at a Sequential Circuits Split-Eight synthesizer. It is in good physical shape with no chips in they keys. All of the keys function with no missing notes. I don’t know really how to operate this board, so as far as I can tell the only thing wrong with it is that the pitch and mod wheel aren’t functioning. Some of the buttons to access the oscillators and wave forms don’t appear to function either. If you’re looking for that vintage synth sound, this is one of the early ones that are being emulated today.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.

“Extremely Rare Sequential Circuits Split Eight analog synth! This is relisted- It was sold about a week ago, it was recently serviced, all the contacts were cleaned and it was a functioning unit. I plugged it in just before shipping it and some keys were working, some were not. I’m not sure what it needs but it seems like a simple fix if you have any knowledge of these things. I don’t have the time, knowledge or money to put into it so it is being sold “AS IS” for parts or repair. It is a rare, vintage analog synth and capable of some pretty cool sounds when fully functioning.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.

“Today I am auctioning off my lovely Sequential Circuits Split-8 Synthesizer. It can be played 8 voice with 1 OSC, 4 voice with 2 OSCs, in monophonic unison, or Split (hence the name), with two different patches on each side of the keyboard. There is not a lot out there about this synth but I will shed a little light on it. It kind of sounds like a Juno and a Prophet 5 mixed, I think. I had much more fun with it than the sluggish Prophet 600 (the split 8 has far more in terms of capabilities, the envelopes seem way faster and the MIDI spec is much better). The ability to double a patch leads for quite a sonic palette to choose from and some HUGE sounds. It covers a lot of ground, from pads, stabs, basses, leads, anything. I’d say it’s much more capable than the Prophet 5 and the MIDI allows easy integration into a modern studio more cleanly. Also, it has stereo outputs and voice panning (the Pro 5 only has mono out). It’s in great shape and works fine. ” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.

“Condition: The keyboard is in excellent shape for its age, the only issue I have noticied is that you have to press down the #1 button a little harder than the others under the program select bank. I have gone through it as much as I could and everything seems to work fine. I am selling this item as is because I am no tech, but you will not be disappointed.

“I am selling a Sequential Circuits Split-8 Analog Modeling Synthesizer, all the functions work on it. There are no presets saved on it. It will save a sound on the preset, but once it gets unplugged or turned off it eventually erases it, so im assuming the battery is dead. But most people use it for making sounds since it is a modeling analog synth. You can layer 8 voices and 8 oscillators and you can make a fat sounding bass line. The keyboard is in excellent cosmetic condition with very little signs of use. The outputs sound fine. This thing is great for a modeling analog synth.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.
“Up for sale is a vintage Sequential Circuits synth. It is in excellent, near mint condition with the exception of the right panel which is detailed in a photo above. All keys function without any double triggering. It has worked excellent everytime I’ve used it. More information can be found on the vintage synth explorer website. These aren’t easy to come by, so act accordingly.” Auction ended. Click here to browse on eBay.
“Vintage Sequential Circuits Split Eight Analog Synthesizer NEEDS WORK. This cool vintage synth is NOT WORKING. When I plug in the keyboard, it DOES NOT LIGHT, and when I plug it into an amp, all I get is a hum, so the unit will definitely need repair. The keyboard is also very beat up, missing several knobs, with the “split” button also missing. The actual keys look to be in good shape, with none of the keys visibly damaged. Since this keyboard will need lots of help, I’m starting the bidding very low, with no reserve, so if you can fix these things, or know someone who can, this may be your chance to pick up a bargain.” Auction ended.

“Hello
The digital envelopes of all the later machines make them a little less valuable but used within the limitations some really sweet sounds can be gotten. A better synth to edit than some with the encoder knob because the parameters are panel selected. I got all the switches working swell with my contact disks! I’ll test it before it goes out to make sure everything is still 100% after setting around a while. That’s always the acid test
