VexFlow - an easy way to edit guitar tab online. Looks good. Can someone try it and let me know?

Tom Oberheim is re-releasing the Oberheim SEM (Synth Expander Module). It's essentially a single synthesizer voice. Price is $899, $599 version available of just electronics. Box still looks good. Not sure if this filter can go fat. I have heard good OB-12 sounds. http://vimeo.com/4999164 Front panel of the SEM (same as re-release): http://www.gearslutz.com/board/attachments/electronic-music-instruments-electronic-music-production/152731d1263261051-oberheim-sem-patch-midi-img_0112.jpg
