Re: VSE - Good trader thread

Electroluver - I bought one of his CS-15. It was very, very well-packed. Safe shipping, good communication and an item in fantastic condition, all at a negotiable price! I must recommend him now that he's about to sell some synths from Vancouver.

I'd love to make trades with more of you guys here!

No probs :) IMO that Pointer Sisters album contains some really good synth work! (Break Out, 1983)

Re: Minimoog Model D problems: OSC 2 range: it control OSC 1 & 3

Wow, Steve, cool that you're able to recognize the issue so fast and knowing exactly how to fix it...impressive!

I also have a great tech around...he never lets me down and it's not expensive. He's also well equipped with original spare parts!

Re: How well would JX-8P patches 'translate' to the D-50?

D-50 is PCM samples+LA synthesis and the JX-8P is traditional subtractive...so what's similar?

Re: Synth Basslines on Madonnas Into the Groove?

Sussudio does sound sh101 like, but it's not because of the portamento. Sounds like the res is cranked a shit-ton so you can still hear the original pitch. I sat here and tried to recreate it. Something else is tracking with it. It's obviously triggered by a drum machine (bass drum?) or by a sequen...

The bass line is a combination of an electric bass and Synergy.
Isn't there a Fairlight vox sound in "P.Y.T"?

In the video, the chords are played on a Prophet-5...
