If you played an EH105 blindfolded, you would not guess it is Italian. You might guess it is a cross between a Yamaha CS-80 (lite) and a Solina String Ensemble.
The defining feature of any vintage analog synthesizer is the filter. The EH105 features a resonant Low Pass Filter. This allows the user to cut away the high frequencies, making the sound darker, or to emphasize a specific frequency band using resonance (or "emphasis"). elka eh105
