Re: Your latest musical purchase
Here's my latest, $200 Smokin' Deal...



Needs to be tuned and some random OCD things fixed, but it is in otherwise excellent condition... I'd call it a "poor man's CP70" but, really it's the same thing.

Re: Your latest musical purchase
I'm pretty sure mine's had a heck-ton of restoration before I got it... but it can be seen here:

A Kawai Q-80. For €27. The sequencer used on 76:14 I believe. If it was good for Global Communication it´s good for me.

Re: Your latest musical purchase
I love reading what others have gotten...
Well my latest purchaase was a Yamaha DXS12 to get the bass cutting through (prices were getting cut on some new stock after the DXS12 mkII was announced). But to talk synthy stuff...
I've been backing a few kickstarters recently...
I'm really looking forward to receiving the eoWave Quadrantid Swarm, it sounded so unique. I also just backed the NDLR and the Shrolca. I recently received my Kordbot, but have't had a chance to play with it.
My last actual purchase was a Volca Keys, I've been super-impressed by these Volcas - lots of gtreat sound in a small form factor. I play mostly live - been living with my VolcaFM with my older synths and it is a wonderful instrument. Thought I'd try out the Keys, it sounds great.
Lastly, I know my next purchase will be a Dreadbox Erebus v3.
Cheers,
Paul

My!
Gosh!
Droolworthy.
One of the instruments on my wishlist -- did you have it overhauled completely, i. e. having roughly 80-year old component parts replaced before they can cause serious harm to you and the instrument?
Good parents you have.

A JD800 in vgc for €500. Just needs a good cleanup and a few sticky keys fixed

Re: Your latest musical purchase
Correction: make that only Good Condition. Red goo underneath, one key weight missing and one foot missing as well. I can understand the missing weight, even a broken key would be alright, but a foot? How can you (make a synth) lose a foot??

Korg Z1 for a good price. Got two 4MB ATA cards for $32, too. Saving for a car, but... eh, that can wait.

Why is FM suspicious? Unless it stands for Prof. Fred Moriarty.Music Bird wrote:Lately an Alesis SR-16 and Alesis Harmony 61, which has some susipiciously FM sounds.

Re: Your latest musical purchase
You had better make some very nice music with that or the gods of synth will hurl their wrath down upon you.
