The Minimoog commonly has this problem where only one note will sound at a time. I think it should really be avoided. If you have one, maybe put it on ebay for a BIN of $400?

I find the action to be quite odd - "clacky" is the best way I can describe it. Mind you, i found it by the side of the road, so I'm not sure whether mine needs to be adjusted in some way. I'm only using mine as a controller at the moment as I haven't figured out how to sample yet. I'll have to chec...

SH-101 since 1984

SH-101 new in 1984. Still have it. Still learning how to use it.

Ensoniq EPS likewise

Nice find. I found one by the side of the road a couple of years ago.

You'll need the OS disc as well as samples. The factory sounds and OS can be downloaded from the yahoo group:

I didn't realise it was a competition. In any case I'm currently winning as the oldest person here to get into synthesis.

thanks

I've got one I bought new in ~1990. Still have the manual too. In fact I still have the original box. What would you like to know? Mine will be going on ebay soon so that will give you an idea of value. Last one I saw went for only a bit over $100. I'm not sure why the bigger, older MKS-20 sells for...

Hi
Does anyone know? - I don't want to damage this classic little keyboard with the wrong one.
thanks

I'd suggest a Kurz PC2R w classic keys. Good bread and butter sounds, excellent pianos and EPs, but only average Hammond emulation and no combo organ. Should pick one up s/h for $500. Emu vintage keys rack has an excellent Vox if that is an important sound. EPs are pretty average. Cheaper than the K...

Got a yamaha crappy portatone for free but swapped it for Casio MT-70 - Score! My sister in law uses the yamaha for her kids piano practice. Found 2 keyboards by the side of the road for council pickup: - clavinova with a few keys not working - I gave it away and a friends child is using it to learn...
