Re: Gear Trading Thread
To add to this, I would also like to put out there my interest in trading away both my Monomachine Mk2 and Machinedrum Mk2 (non-UW) for something in the above list. The only caveat here is, I would like to trade them as a unit -- why? For no other reason than anal-retentiveness, really. And Ideally, I'd trade them for a Virus TI2 Keyboard, Otherwise, I'm still open to trading them away for the stuff above, or if you have a s**t-ton of euro or some other modular goodness...silikon wrote:Updated for the times...(as of 20 July 2012)

My trade thoughts are fairly broad; something interesting, something of equal value (or cash supporting imbalances therein), and in nice physical and operational shape.
All the following gear for trade is located in Maryland, USA. I'd like to keep trades to within the continent (US,Canada, Mexico, you get the idea) but willing to do international for the right trade and with valid references.
Items for trade:
Trax Rota-Synth
DSI Mono Evolver Keyboard (Original Boxes, Manual, Everything)
DSI Mopho Keyboard (Original Boxes, Manual, Everything)
Roland RS-09
Casio CZ-5000 (original box, packing manuals)
Digidesign 002 Rack (Original boxes and manuals)
Elektron Monomachine Mk2
Elektron Machinedrum Mk2
All machines are in perfect shape.
The rest all come with manuals and power supplies (or IEC Power cord)
Types of things I would be interested in trade: (some would obviously be trade plus money)
DSI Prophet 08
DSI Poly Evolver Keyboard
Roland SH-3
Roland SH-1
Moog Voyager RME
2 Voice Cards for an Oberheim OB-Mx
Akai MPC-2500/5000
Roland TR909
E-Mu Emulator 2
Red Square v2
Leipzig K
Telemark
Moog Opus 3
Euro Modules of many flavors...
And I also have an ARP Odyssey Mk.3 in excellent shape (new sliders, complete service, new keyboard bushings and keys) that I would also be interested in a trade -- but really only interested in trading this for a Mk2 or Mk1 Odyssey in similar shape...

Re: Gear Trading Thread
I have an as-new (used briefly twice to play with an RE-201) BLUE Cactus Vacuum Tube Condenser Microphone. It's the better quality Series 1, before they outsourced from their original Baltic Latvian hand-assembled units. Sounds gorgeous but I just don't use mics. The inferior Series 2 and 3 still retails in the US for up to $3000 non inclusive of shipping, import tax/ duty or GST ( if in Australia).
I'm keen for a trade for:
Korg MonoPoly
Korg PolySix
Roland Jupiter 6
Roland SH-7
Other pre-90's analogue synths + cash either way depending what it is.
I'm in Australia and am happy to discuss safe trading method ideas for international trades.
You can PM me or email on starsafari 1 at gmail dot com
Cheers
Michael

Re: Gear Trading Thread
I have a vintage EML 100 synthesizer listed here in For Sale but I would be down with a trade in the $3000-3500 range. Looking for in trade (straight up or plus cash from you)
Modcan A/Cyndustries modules
Serge panels (or M-Class if with boat)
or maybe a Dotcom, 5U or euro system or small 2-3 module Buchla 200e system (with an osc and filter) of similar value but would have to have a case and PS to start.
Possibly other cool things but am really only looking to trade the EML for things modular or modular friendly.
Keep in mind that trades would only be with VSEers with established good records of selling and trading. Or you would have to be willing to have me receive your trade item first before sending mine.

Re: Gear Trading Thread
I have a machinedrum sps uw mkii and a jx-3p with the pg-200 programmer for trade.
I have a mopho, drm mk3, and a 5u dotcom modular and another jx-3p plus various other synths I've built/bought (to give you an idea what NOT to offer and my taste:).
Shoot me an offer. Local in chicago is best, but will ship with people who've been around here for a bit.
I don't really want any more drum machines and would actually like to trade the jx3p for a nice VA. I tuned the filters so they go further into self oscillation when you go past 5/6 and it makes for a really fantastic sound. I just don't need two.

Re: Gear Trading Thread
I beg to differ, in terms of price and what you can do with them. Both can go for 2,500 around these parts.
