This weird french band called "End of Data" used it for bass lines along with a TR-606 for drums on their first LP from 1984. Both are even pictured in the sleeve. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJm_713f3w0 https://img.discogs.com/1-EVQkL7zTUWtL2juQXwkm4S5mc=/fit-in/600x594/filters:strip_icc():form...

The question is: why to make a 4 voice analog synth which costs 600 eur if it is obviously possible to make a VA synth which sounds better and has more voices for similar price or just a bit more. Think Korg MS2000, Alesis Ion, Novation Mininova,... Because Korg already have. In fact, the King Korg...

I love this blurb on Sweetwater's site: Due to the astounding popularity of this spectacular new analog synth, the first shipment that we received from Korg is already completely sold out. Without a doubt, there will be continued high demand for the minilogue, so please don't hesitate to place your...

It's just that one Organ sound featured in so many tracks in the 90s alongside the M1 Piano/Organ. In fact the M1/CZ101/909 were all perfect bedfellows in commercial dance music of the time. Back in the day I even bought an old school sample CD that had the 'dirty organ' (as it was so affectionatel...

I've heard this also on my MKS 50. I believe it's internal distortion, possibly overdriving the chorus as mentioned - I think I remember fixing it once by turning the osc volume down. The Juno-60 does this as well, especially with the chorus on. Simply turning the osc volume down a bit stops it fro...

- Roland JP 3000 (Trancey) ... Im just not so much interested in Super Saw and Trance Sounds and its ok if it sounds a little trashy maybe. The JP-8000 being a "trancey" synth is a huge misconception. A lot of people used it for Trance music, but it alone will not produce Trance music. All the pres...

I actually found a TR-606 at a thrift store for $20 not too long ago. It was just sitting in a bin with a bunch of TV remote controls and modems

Trisomie 21 used a Casio on their first EP "Le Repos Des Enfants Heureux" . While I'm not sure which one exactly, it sounds a lot like the CT-310 I have. There were a handful of the CT keyboard that shared the same drum patterns and accompanying chord sequences. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3MaEq...

I'm in a similar scenario, only I own a DX100 and DX11. The DX11 blows it away in terms of extra features, extra waveforms, the performance mode, size and even looks, yet I can't seem to part with the DX100. The lower quality DACs does make a difference. Plus the DX100 has more usable preset sounds ...

I've tried the MS-20 Kit version in person and the knobs are a major improvement over the Mini version. All of them all feel solid and non-wobbly just like how the Mini's volume knob is.

I had the SH-201 for a few years as well and confirm that those oscillator are indeed real VA and not samples.

I hate AC adapters not because you can lose them but because they have flimsy cables that are always too short. I've seen a number of them fail on a gig so if it's your only instrument you'd better pack a spare adapter. Wall warts are a PITA when you need to plug a few into a single power strip...a...

Are we seriously complaining about break out MIDI cables now? Those cost like $15 to replace and can easily be purchased online. It's no more of a "design flaw" than a synth having detachable power adapter that could get lost. Here's an idea: Don't lose your stuff. My SY99 doesn't have a detachable...

It will probably be cheaper than that in the US. For example, the new Korg Electribe retails for like £315.00 in the UK, yet only $400 in the US.
