[griffin avid]

I won't share mine until someone else posts one that is three pages long.
I used to keep a list that also had the prices that I paid.

At first, I was happy, prideful and boasting-
eventually it became embarrassing.

Now, I'm just ashamed.

ARP Odyssey

Is that the new KORG one, or the old one?

Yes, a real whiteface ARP.

The Symphony's samples are so lo-fi, it almost sounds like a Mellotron. I got it as a $99 blowout from Sam Ash back around 1990.
