hi everyone, i´m new in all this vintage synth world. i have a korg triton le pro, and a toshiba satelite laptop, my problem here is that i want to generate more 70s and 80s sounds, is a project that i have, it´s a fusion between electronic music like:
- drum & bass
- electo pop from the 80s (the boggles, aha)
- and some new edge from the 70s (tangerine dream, jare, brian eno, mike oldfield)

sounds kinda crazy jeje, but i dont have gear to generate vintage sounds, this give me another problem. i leave in Guatemala is in Central America, here is imposible that you can get vintage synth many trademarks doesn´t exist in the market, like nord, moog, etc.... you can only get some new korg and yamahas.

can someone please help me, finding some pc emulatiors maybe our some advise about what synth will be a good bussines because i will import from the us.

thanks

try some of the software synths that Arturia makes. They have versions of the Arp 2600, Minimoog, Prophet, and Yamaha CS-80. All of these would work great for your styles and you can probably get them shipped to Gutamala. Try eBay or maybe bribe some company.

the Arturia Minimoog is cool, you need a powerful pc though, on mine it lags so badly i dumped it.

in software synths check also :
Native Instruments Pro 53 (prophet emulation),
ImpOscar (really cool and funky sound),
Korg legacy collection got a nice MS20 emu
Novation Bass station

If you have Reason 2.0 and it is a registered version then you should still be able to get the 2.5 upgrade for free from the Propellarheads website. It is worthwhile because you get the Screamer unit that is basically a guitar pedal emulator to process and distort your sounds. Plus you get the Vocoder, though it is not, imo, a true vocoder. -jlm

A-ha used tons of Yamahas DX7, so my bet is to get also Native instruments FM7(Yamaha DX7 emulation).
I have lots of Future Music magazine numbers, which comes with tones of demos and info. Of course, if you have a good internet connection, then just search the website and download some demos.
