Not sure I've run across the worst synth of al time, but there are certainly a lot that I have no interest in even turning on. Nvining's list is a great start at that list.

That was nice! Thanks for posting it!

These are pretty widely available D-50 patches.

That is an excellent explaination!

Have you tried the sound chip on the computer motherboard yet?

I still love the sound of a Fairlight, 8 bits and 32kHz sample rate and all!

That is really nice!

What's wrong with the tried and true method of putting it in the case and then weighing the whole thing? I guess you need to find a case and then ask the manufacturer what the case weighs...

SCI Prophet 2000 has analog filters.

Not something I would buy, but they seem pretty cool.

Wow - cemented into the wall! If it's still there, it probably is worth restoring!

That was nice! It has a rather cinematic feel to it. I feel it ends perhaps too abruptly though...

I have a Tascam US-1800 that runs new runs just under $300, but you can probably find a used one fro $200. It's got 8 XLR and two 1/4" inputs on front and a bunch more stuff on the back. If you need a lot of inputs, this would be a good way to go.

Typically, there's a rolling window of when the price of a old synth will hit bottom and then it may come back up, depending on desireability and rareity. In the mid-late 80s, that window hit bottom for many analog synths. As people dumped them for new digital, the analogs hit bottom and people that...

That's pretty cool!
