I KNOW, I KNOW!!! UNLEASHED EMOTIONS!!!!!!!!
The thing is though, Mitch - buying vintage synths is never about bang-for-buck. When people pay that much for an instrument, it isn't about what it can do, it's about what it means to them on a personal level. In these cases, an emulation simply isn't good enough - and by this, I don't mean the quality of the sound.MitchK1989 wrote:I don't want to start a software vs hardware war, but for me personally, I'd be much happier throwing down $150 for Gmedia's oddity... And spending the rest on an MEK, a good midi controller, and some effect plugins...
Seems to me that choice would give a lot more "bang for the buck".
Oh, that. Ha ha, I'm an idiot. Yeah, I try not to think about that.OriginalJambo wrote:
AG man - I was just joking. I found it quite amusing that Bob chose to name his final synth using the term "Phat" when we all know what Moogs are renown for.
I wonder what Bob's definition of "Phat" was...:ponder:

Bloody h**l. I was watching that auction too. 10K? Someone in the Los Angeles area just sold one on craigslist for 1,500 or 1,600. It sold so fast my email didn't even get a response so that I could offer them my old Toyota Camry.CZ Rider wrote:What is a 2600 worth then? Here is an auction just ended for over $10,000.00.
