Keys, Synths & Samplers

[ElectricPuppy]

This place is SLOOOOOOOW. So, pop quiz, you keysynth nerdlings:

Due to circumstances far, FAR beyond your control, you MUST relinquish ONE (1) synth from your current collection.

Which one is it? And most importantly, why that one?




GO!!

[ChristianRock]

I just did, I relinquished (love that word... ) the A-80 with the NS5R. But it's no big deal as I have all the NS5R sounds in the N1R with a much better interface. Of the remaining ones, the EX-8000 I guess. I love that thing but it's getting the least use out of all that I have.

[Gribs]

Easy for me. It would be the Korg M3M that I am planning to put up for sale since I now have a Kronos 61. Second would be the Alesis Ion that I have been holding onto for too long.

[Pigger]

My Ensoniq MR-76 expanded.

I have the sounds of the ZR rom in one of my EMU keyboards.

[Caligvla]

Sorry ... There is no fat left in my setup ...

synths: Fan X7 (fully expanded), V-Synth XT, Jupiter 6/8, NI Maschine

Effects: Space Echo RE-201, KP3 x 2

MacBookPro with Logic and soon Pro Tools 9 and MOTU 828mkii with AKG C214 and Onyx OM5


Oh yeah ... I still have my Novation X-Station 25 ... I would sell that for sure but it's just so cool looking and they really don't fetch all that much surprisingly -- not to mention I know the second I sell it I will have some huge momumental need for it ... (I still very much like the way it sounds ... Great for informal jam sessions ... And makes a nice desktop controller ... But in the studio compared to the Jupiters --- forget it ... )

Things that I've sold in the last year-ish: Korg Electribes ER-1, ESX, EMX ... Juno-60, V-Synth (keyboard version), SP-404

I'm down to my core pieces and I love it ...

[ElectricPuppy]

BZZZZZZZZZ no, sorry. Due to circumstances beyond your control, you MUST get rid of One (1) synth. MUST. I'm sorry if this kills your perfect rig, but hey man, I don't make the rules, I just enforce 'em. So, which of your precious synthies will it be?

[ChristianRock]

Actually, you DO make the rules EP, you're the OP :lol:

[ElectricPuppy]

Quiet, you, you'll ruin everything! :lol:

[The Audacity W…]

JP-8080, because it's my last remaining hardware synth? Or the VAX•77, because it's my only keyboard?

[ElectricPuppy]

Yeah, but what about The One Patch on that thing, AW? And I think you'd be nuts to part with the VAX, considering its cost.

[The Audacity W…]

Yeah, but what about The One Patch on that thing, AW?

Dammit! You're right.

And I think you'd be nuts to part with the VAX, considering its cost.

Wait! Totally forgot about the Monotron. It's a fun little beast, but I'd sell that.

[xpander]

Waldorf XT; because i'm surprised i haven't ditched it already.

[koolkat]

I sell my MM6. Since I only have a MM6 and a MOX 6, teh choice is pretty easy. If just a controller counts, then I sell my Cakewalk S-500....but I doubt that counts.

[seamonkey]

G-Force Imposcar.

[ChristianRock]

So, which one would you sell, Mr. Puppy?

[ElectricPuppy]

Hm. Hmmm. Kinda of a toss-up, I think: Either my S-760, or the TX416. I haven't used either one in a couple of years, now.

[Caligvla]

BZZZZZZZZZ no, sorry. Due to circumstances beyond your control, you MUST get rid of One (1) synth. MUST. I'm sorry if this kills your perfect rig, but hey man, I don't make the rules, I just enforce 'em.

So, which of your precious synthies will it be?

X-Station 25 ... (But it ain't happening ... )

[ElectricPuppy]

There. That wasn't so hard, was it?

[Meatball Fulton]

My Evolver because right now I own only two synths anyway...

[dan88z]

S90ES, only because I just bought an S70XS to replace it. I guess that's cheating... but between the Nord Stage compact and the XS, I'd have to say the Stage, as much as it would pain me to do so. I need the ability to create more complex splits and layers that the Yamaha can do. I'd kill me to have to play a rompler organ, but I guess with some tweaks I could get by.
