Re: Looking for a decent low-end analogue console

if u can get the price down a little bit i'd go with 6000, and yes id definetely re-cap it. not a myth at all. it has been done long before internet even existed. temperature in big consoles makes caps age prematurely. its common practice with old(er) consoles form soundcraft to Neve and SSL, to rec...

that Paolo's track on D50 is freakin awesome!! envokes nostalgia for late 80s n early 90s - so many great film scores, and newage/ambient albums of that era were done with this machine (eric serra). unmistakable. Don, do u happen to know if its all on-board reverb/delay on Paolo's track ? i had d550...

if the poster at least gave a hint if he is looking for another, albeit different character, ANALOG synth, or he is looking for just a different synth (as in digital, alternate snythesis types..) if the former is the case, i would for starters, suggest an analogue that is not a DCO machine (like 106...

Re: I got a new favorite (now with pics)

I am just totally blown away by the power of my Andromeda. I have spent the last 4 days programming it and its just amazing. congratulations, i think you couldnt get a better synth to complement your setup. and it looks so shiny, brand new. been using it for 5yrs, and am still discovering things.. ...

i had DB9 for a yr. i wouldnt call it warmer than 303. its VCO is a Curtis 3340, and sounded very much liek it. - hard, focused ripping. 303 (which i had side by side) is comparably gooey, silky or edgy w resonance depending on settings.. i prefered its discrete VCO. tho both would have use in elect...
