Novation KS4 -- 130729173429 I also have a M-Audio Ozonic MIDI Controller (that has a firewire audio interface built in as well) -- if you want it, drop me a PM. Obviously, under US$200. Other items that may come in around $200 - Novation X-Station Yamaha SY-77 (I think Alex E is still selling his h...

Here is some extra p**n for you. http://www.atomicshadow.com/1/post/2012/07/the-more-things-change.html Dig the h**l out of the mid-century appeal your studio has. The JP8080 looks strangely out of place, however. ;) http://instagram.com/p/NGodmVOx-T/ This Modcan system is pretty epic. And sexy. An...

Happened to be nerding out today looking here and there, and happened upon this bloke's flickr page; (whom also is a muff resident, and evidently an all-around cracking synth technician) -- so I thought I'd share.

Loads of serious history in these photos.

You didn't mention what platform you're on... Prosoniq Orange [here] Ableton Live has a Vocoder built in (to the fully registered version) Both produce nice sounding, obviously vocoded output. Reason has the BV512 -- if you're using reason, why not that? (I haven't played with it extensively) None c...

Lo-Fi. Inexpensive. Extremely interesting. (some assembly required, admittedly - unless you know someone with one, or willing to build for you, and other challenges..) Where' the party at? Love mine. :D v2.x is on its way out (some day), I own a v1.0. It's absolutely lo-fi and works wonders on about...

him, keyboard; me, guitar Without knowing what sort of stuff you're looking to play, for the first I would actually advise against anything vintage for the time being; with vintage gear comes headaches past what a casual player might consider acceptable. Repair fees, etc... Not at all fun if this i...

Are there any of those speech programs that also sing, not just talk? I have an old program that came with my ancient soundblaster AWE64 sound card, called "Singing text". It needs to have the sound card to operate - it accesses a speech synthesis chip on the sound card. I would love to move away f...

Wish I knew someone in the area willing to ship that thing to me...

If you're looking for just something to type in words and out come speech, the MacOS still has 'say' which is free if you're on a Mac or running MacOS. There's also an iPhone/iPad app that does exactly that - but being at work, I can't remember what it's called at the moment. Edit coming later. Edi...

Stephen Hawking used the DecTalk DTC01; Sometimes you can find A DecTalk box on eBay or whatnot, if you're looking to keep it original.

everyone one here is guilty Bullshit. Myself included, and many others here whom I've done business with here are not out to make ridiculous profits on their gear. i found a shop that has one near my house, 150$,,,, what do they go for? So did you actually purchase this before listing it? [-X you m...

If the OB-8 would butt out five inches behind the stand arms, I doubt the Matrix-12 would even balance on there. Xpander looks like it would fit easily on the stand, but I'm wondering why they didn't make it a rack unit. I also wonder if Xpander can provide 6 more voices to the Matrix-12. The other...
