Hello!

You would have to find out who posted the image and ask them.
Just a guess, but it looks like an ARP SE, with the synth
section from an Omni transplanted into the SE''s cabinet.
The Omni' 1 and 2 synth board is in the same location.
One or two of the pots would be to mix audio from the
two sections, to the main output.
With photos such as this, it's impossible to confirm if a
particular mod attempt like that actually ever worked.

Regards,

You will never find a Solina like this.
The leftside is clearly a modification added from a tech or DIY-enthousiast.

Does it have any discription at the sliders about functions?
