I am going to sell mine as soon as I've recorded it some more and was wondering what the going rate for these are? It's fully functioning with manual and cable and pretty much mint cosmetically (aside from a single scratch). Would you say about £250 GBP?

I admit that I'm no expert of the European market but in North America, I know they range from $125-$250 US.

Persons like Hageir, Jack Spider, ItsMeOnly and other fine non-american VSE members might know the correct answer.

I've had mine for 19 years and it's been in my closet the last 9. At this point anyone who agrees to lift it out of my place can have it.

There is somewhat of a mystique building these as it had an amazing analog filter and I love the dual delays. I had a program that converted all my samples to wav files but that was worthless since it the filter, delays, unison mode, etc that made it sound cool. Also, the rack mounted DSM-1 removed all the cool stuff like the delays so this is a one of a kind classic. If it wasn't the size of a couch I'd still use it.

I'd like to find a synth that sounds like it using it's own additive synth sound. Maybe the DW-8000 is similar.

Wow, you really don't want it? I call dibs if that's the case.
