VL-Tone Piano What? You're crazy (no pun intended)! I've used that sound a billion times. Other than the ADSR function it's in a tie with the fantasy preset for my fav. casio preset. And I know casio presets. Speaking of casio presets. The CZ-101 has some INCREDIBLY bad presets. The organ is just S...

If it's not too much more (i dont' check the prices, I got mine via thrift stores) I strongly suggest going for the SK-1. There a few key differences though. With the SK-5 you gain way more sampling power. In fact it takes up to 4 samples at a time and remembers then when you turn it off. The four s...

I didn't know you could save samples to the commodore tape drive. That's new incentive to pick one up. I thought you had to get the disk drive.

price range? The Moog/Realistic MG-1 fits al of those bands sounds and can be had for under $300. Yamaha CS-5, perhaps? I used FL Studio to learn synthesis, but if you can afford a synth, then that's the way to go. Just shoot for something knobby/slidery to assist in your learning and you can't go w...

I'm surprised how little the Junos have been mentioned. Maybe it's the sub-osc. Solid synths, anyway. I use single osc. settings on my MG-1 and ESQ-1 all the time. Single osc can be fine. Maybe it's not for you.

I've seen some with the Moog Rogue and MG-1. A bit J-106, too.

Lost sounds have a Prophet 600 and some other/smaller SCI.
