Re: Yamaha cs60 - what do people think

the Cs-80 is realy the king of the hill, but the CS-50/60 isnt far behind at all. The main drawback of the cs-50(compaired to the 60) is the lack of ribboncontroller. But the ringmod, filters and pwm are the same in all of them. Ive played the CS-80 several times and shurely Id prefer to have one bu...

Re: Sequencer+ CV->MIDI modular?

If I get you right:

2 Cluboftheknobs C960 sequencers, Moog clones, 970 euros each
2 Moonmodular 552 CV to midi interfaces, perhaps one is enough, 298 euros each

So it rounds up to: 2536 euros + shipping + power + case. But cool.

Re: discrete polysynths

The Roland Jupiter-8 has discreet VCOs. I guess the JP-4 has that to.

Re: Do you aknowledge the importance of dance music

Not only wikpedia but last.fm has "Boards of Canada, Brian Eno, Aphex Twin, Moby, Biosphere" as top search words.
Actualy I think the dark (metal) ambient isnt such a huge influential gengre. Perhaps it is in the notorious metal-countries Finland and Norway.
