The Opus 3 is a string/brass/organ polyphonic instrument with a 49-note (C-C) keyboard. It features a very noisy chorus (which you are unable to put the brass section through) and 2 VCF's, one for brass section and one for the string section (with switchable high, low, or band-pass filtering and resonance). The Opus 3 features stereo outs and each of the sections can be panned.
