Well, any modular system is.

Definitely sounds like DX7 to my ears.

the early dx7 from sn 11111 to 25678 produce warmer/fatter sound lol, sure bud. @OP I've had assorted Yamaha gear with a little sticker on the back that has two letters and then two numbers. It seems to indicate the year of production, and I think the factory. Here's one on a DMP7: http://i.imgur.c...

Long story short: A fully working Alpha Juno 2 is worth about $250. It's been steady in that price range for quite some time now. Hard to say the same about many other instruments out there.

Someone pick this stuff up! I actually could use some of these pieces, it's a shame he can't ship.
Really would hate to see this stuff "headed for the recycle center unless somebody wants to claim them."

It's "priced to sell" you guise!!!

Yeah but I'm sure it lasted longer than '89. It was still very popular that year as well. It's gotta be like 1991 or 1992.

I found a D-50 on eBay with the serial number HC61779. -That translates to May 1991, and unit number 81779. So the D-50 was still in production until at least then. I knew Roland made a quite a few of these things, but I never realized production lasted that long. However, the M1 lasted until 1994, ...

It was a microkorg.

The Korg 707 is very ugly in a beautiful way.

Juno 60 - Sounds a little better, but very overpriced/overrated.

Juno 106 - Abundant and not too hard to find for a reasonable price... But the voice chips can die...

I second the Alpha Juno. Cheap and cheerful, awesome instrument!

I want to. I grew up using Performer on a Mac SE and then a Quadra. Sadly, I'm so spoiled with modern DAW's these days that I don't think I could adjust to that. I wonder if it's possible to homebrew some software that let's you control the YM chip inside via the MIDI input? That would be pretty cool.
