ps yes, im bitter that im merely a "senior member". but this here post will get me 1 step closer to being an expert.

ehem.... i would think "expert members" like yourself could figure out how to program that patch on their own, no?
:p

i thought some of you past, present or future wavestation-owners, wavestation-fans or even wavestation-haters might find my latest youtube video interesting as it shows the wavestation can kinda sound like an analog synth at times, with an actual resonant filter, courtesy of the internal effects sec...

real nice fm8 track!!

i have and i did. so, the answer is: yes. and a waldorf wave. and a microwave xt. and a fizmo. if i couldnt find or afford those, id get a wavetable softsynth until i had an opportunity to get the real deal.

Hi. I don't know what Korg Polysix synths usually cost over there, but if you can find one that doesnt have battery leakage, thats what Id recommend. it wont sound like a fender rhodes EP, but its great for 80s music as well as ambient/chill out stuff and, if you ask me, its a real good value. mini

Don't really like doing Omni restorations for customers though, a lot of work for no profit really, I only d...

these are a serious pain in the a*s to service but when its done right, it's a beautiful instrument. we've done complete overhauls to a number of these but would be happy if we never had to do another again! :) actually though, id like to refurb a mint omni 2 for my personal studio in case anyones g...

the battery acid could have spread during the time he had it, causing this additional problem. youve really gotta do a thorough job when you repair these.
