Korg M1 - easily. It's so dead inside. :roll: you would have been linched when it was released for such an admission) - but that's the point - it's the most successful synth in history by a country mile. So though you say it's dead inside, it 'did it' for hundreds of thousands of users back in the ...

[...] But would be interested in your thoughts on the WSA-1 and whether it's worth picking one up. It depends on what you are looking for. I would say "definitely!" because this instrument is so unlike any other digital synthesizer I´ve played (which weren´t too many, I must confess). If you are lo...

My first ARP Odyssey, in 1994. I simply couldn´t warm up to it, and all the time I was wondering why I didn´t like it -- "hey, Klaus Schulze used it to great effect, it must be great!". Sold it in 2000. It was a Mk. 2 (2813). Never missed it. The Mk. 1 is a totally different thing, though. Stephen ...

[...] Y'all are the Tea Party of synth purveyours. [...] Ouch! That remark was spot-on. Stephen Stephen, I'm sure you have an excellent grasp of the problematic nature of the Tea Party. From Germany. Hey, we even have electricity over here. And we live in houses, not in caves. [...] Moog was though...

As for the SH-2000, I remember a sleeve photo on the back of an album ("Silk Road 3"? Can´t remember as I sold the album a long time ago) where the characteristic profile of the SH can be seen on top of a Jupiter 4 (an oblong square with rounded edges).

Kitaro had the following synths & keyboards in his "Home recording studio" around 1980-1981: Roland JP4, VP-330, SH-3, SH-5 Korg 700s, 800 DV, PE-2000 Prophet-5 (rev 2) Mellotron Mini-Moog I don't think he used a SH-2000 but I may be wrong about that. There is a very characteristic flute-type of so...

Hi Stephen, Thanks for the pointers. :D I managed to tweek the sounds today within 10mins reading your reply. I see the A and B section and running lights when changing the sounds with the slider...it seems fair okay, but I am still practising to unleash the full power of the synth. Thank you for t...

A Memory Moog-like analogue polysynth, with improved oscillators, better build quality, and stability.

Moog building something modern? Hey, would Beretta make Kitchen Aids?

I´d love the String Filter.

No, this would be lame.

Actually, it´s a PG-200. The PG-300 is the programmer for the alpha Juno (MKS-50?).

no need to be smug.

I don't see you contributing to the thread. I see you complaining about other people's contributions.

At least he bothered to read my contribution.

[...] I read that the JX is a treasure trove of sounds later, I just didn't understand how to tap these powerful sounds...[...] That´s fairly easy. You have the parameter list to the right of the unit where you would normally place the programmer. You can edit two separate areas of the unit, A and ...

...and I guess it was the most expensive learning experience he has ever made. :lol: sounds like most vintage synths - i read synclaviers are supposed to be pretty reliable... guess that's wishful thinking I think the Synclavier is very solidly built -- he had the old controller keyboard (wooden en...
