ok so I saw an advertisement for an SK-20 for 200 with a road case. I'm currently asking about it's working order (maybe that'll scare him off, it is indeed a dud), but I am curious at what point the SK-20. What is it worth when it's in excellent working order? When it's in okay working order? When ...

let me rephrase the question: What should I buy first?

in what order would you recommend that I buy the following? * Hard Drive * Video Card * Processor * Memory * Cooling I already have the specs on what to buy, so I don't really need advice on that. I just need to know what would be best for media needs (Audio, Video, Games, Soft Synths.) thanks in ad...

You cannot find the parts for these synths anymore unless you find a scrapper to salvage. he says that the floppy disc drive is the only thing, not working. I have like 3 Shugart drives, in my house that would work perfectly with the Emulator. It's going for a pretty cheap price, so I think I'll ge...

the first that I got on my own was a Roland JX-3P, about 3 years ago.

learning to play the piano/organ/whatever does help if you want to end up doing double keyboard playing. but it's basically the same principles.

if you learn to play the piano, it'll make it so much easier to learn any other instruments that you desire to learn in the future.

I'm sure it can. It has pitch control.

so now that I have my microKorg fixed (AFTER EIGHT MONTHS!!!!!!!!!) I am thinking about venturing outward towards getting another Korg product called the KP3 Kaoss Pad. now I am aware of it's main features (sampler, effects, MIDI control, etc) and I'm sure I want to buy it. but I have some questions...

it's a Zube Tube.
it's basically a cardboard tube with plastic cups on each end and a long metal spring inside. and when you speak into it, it causes the coil to vibrate.

very squealy in did. I kinda feel like the appropriate visual would be a Bill and Ted movie. It would be "most excellent."
I like how you pass off the guitar, in a sort of theremin-sounding fashion. the background music fits it very nicely, as well.

Very noisy, indeed. Same story with the JX series.

Vangelis RULES!!!!!

the brass isn't bad, either, contrary to what some believe.
