This cool looking synth, call the Leipzig is completely analog all the way out to the MIDI out, creating odd noises using only the technology your dad would have used in his college band. You can tweak all of the sounds with the built-in knobs and slider and the keyboard lets you ad Moog-ification to almost any song.

The keyboard costs a little over $1500 but a rack version costs about $500. Best of all? It’s mono. None of that pesky stereo sound to ruin your dreamscapes.
