Virus C SoundDiver?

Put it down somewhere, like on the couch, or a shelf or something, then head off to ebays and forums looking for a different synth.

This one's no longer shiny and new.

Get it in writing, and get a rock on it.

I'm getting old, the memory fails me and gets fuzzy... :grandpa:

Redback spiders also don't look like the picture on the brochure, colours are reversed, black, with a red stripe / blotch.

Used to have four TB-303's at the same time.

Intention was always to keep one minty, get one Devilfished and sell the other two if needs be.

Tried selling one off, and ended up selling all four of them, ah well, c'est la vie, not a massive fan of the 303 anyway.

2nd Picture I like the evolution from My First Keyboard to the massive modular.

I'd try and demo the Prophet 08 a bit more, see how you feel about it.

Personally I'd hold onto the Polivoks, and look at a JP-8000 + cash for the Prophet 08.

Where are you located?

The correct answer is V-Synth, but even though most V-Synth owners have been shouting it from the rooftops people still seem slow to catch on. I'm working on it... Waiting for: a) A good deal to pop up locally. b) Understanding the difference between the different versions. (a.k.a. Been too lazy to...

Why so? I'm thinking about maybe grabbing one.
