Re: Proof that Roland are indeed insane.

What are you guys on about? Roland have TOTALLY cornered the auto-accompaniment + fake drawbars market. Brilliant!

Re: Korg MS-20 Mini

People want a Monopoly because it's a Monopoly. A Monopoly sounds nothing like an Evolver or Mopho x4 & vice versa, even if you are the most skilled synth programmer in the world you can't replicate the sounds of one with the other(s). So just like I said in my first post: you want a monopoly? buy ...

Re: Roland Dep 5 vs Boss ce-20

Someone once told me that there are relays in Dep5s that keep it from popping or something when it's powered on. So the contacts get dirty or oxidize or whatever and then no output. Open it up and clean the contacts with an eraser. I trust the person that told me this. Plus they're not that difficu...

Re: Korg MS-20 Mini

I think the idea is now more like, "why not?" If they could do it with the MS-20, why not others? I think the MS reissue may actually have the net effect of creating even more lust for reissued gear, rather than satisfying cravings...it may create more desire. Which I think would still be good for ...

Re: Korg MS-20 Mini

You guys want a monopoly, buy a monopoly. A new theoretical, equivalent isn't going to be near the current prices. You're missing the point-- we want something new, that doesn't come scratched up. Mint condition, and if it's broken it's replaceable, or you can call the company and get something. If...

Re: Making music on a 25 year old computer

Wait, so are you playing the sounds through the Mac, or an emulator? Based on the sounds alone (and the background noise!), that most certainly sounds like an FM synth. Surely Macs came with FM-based soundcards, just like later PCs?

Re: Deadmau5 buys a Fairlight CMI

I'm happy for the awesome manufacturers as well when he buys a shitload of stuff - it's just kinda strange to assume that his music has anything to do with detroit... Well I meant to say chicago house :? :banghead: No, he's right... Dedmuouse's music really is a classic combo of Chicago soul and De...

Re: Korg MS-20 Mini

Let's say Korg wouldn't do any more rereleases-- how would you guys feel about new synths that may be inspired by old voice architecture? I'd still love something like the Mono/Poly's 4 oscillator architecture, as long as they didn't call it a Mono/Poly if it wasn't worthy of the name. I'm talking ...
