Re: What new booty have you acquired?

What roms are there for the R100? Is there a list (or better, some previews) to check somewhere? I got one, but no extra roms so I'm curious about what I'm missing smile

Edit: ErrorAudio, that bulky knob on the top right, what does that do?

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

That changes between the 3 roms. So you cant use them at the same time. sad  But you can shift while playing for some strange results smile !!! Il do a small recording og the sounds so you can hear them!

Edit: Check back in 30 min... than a sampler of it will be up!

Edit 2: That took a bit longer.

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

Ha, very nice. Very 80s, overall. I like it, it has quite some potential, especially that 2nd bank. Did a bit of searching, those cards seems to be quite hard to find separately.

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

The demo was made with the 2nd bank and i love it to bits... Those dirty staps are so cool.

@ Mono: How many banks were in the one you sold to Ruud?

nice score mikoni would like a synare one day

yeah it is very interesting but sadly can only be triggered by vibrations of the rim that it is attached to. or if you tap on it with fingers.
i still can't figure out why does it have footswitch in and footswitch out jacks.

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

Love my R-100 too. Got it for $60 last month on Ebay. Helped kill my jones for a 707. No extra banks though.

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

mine from mono only had the original bank. howevver, i scored a second bank (the industrial one) from ebay for 5 euro or so.. so i exchanged it. i don't have the switch (would like to find that..) so i can only use one rom at the time.

ive always wanted one since they came out.. in my first 80's bands we used a maxed out and expanded r50, and that thing sounded so evil over a bass amplifier.. r100 was also used on records by bands like ministry, NIN, etc.. always been surprised it was so cheap. probably because of the brand..

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

Just to clarify, I can not use the 3 banks at the same time. The mounting print with the switch only makes it alot easier to switch.

Do you know how many roms were made?

Oh yeah. I paid app. 100euro for it.

minikorg700 reprazent! good buy!

yours looks in similar condition to mine. I don't know what people did with them, but you do see a few beat up ones about the place. But yeah - I really love the 700. such an amazing sound. I love the "chorus" waveforms on the osc, and the sound of that filter.. magic!

I wish I had a 700s with the second osc... or an 800dv (though they are really big) I used to have a huge synth lust for the 770, it's like a 700s but smaller and with proper controls...  but apparently the sound is not the same.

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

I've seen a lot of beat up minikorgs, probably because it's a good choice for gigs, and they're really old!

Mine was used by a pop band that went big here in Quebec in the last few years, the synth was covered in fake zebra fur :

I bought it from the blurry keyboardist in the back wink

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

Yeah the chorus waveforms are amazing. it's probably pwm, it's pretty basic as a synth but the tone is great.

The 800dv looks great too, there's one for sale close for 1000$ negotiable, tempting but the little 700 will do for now!

My guitarist bandmate has a 700s, I've haven't tried it yet, I'm really curious to see the difference in sound.

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

i bought a bitchin' sync din sync multiple box over x-mas.  it was suggested by bankie phones in a thread a ways back, and it turns out i know the guy who makes them as well - a friend of a friend sort of deal. 

neat-o device - basically two strips of din mutlitples - 1 in, 2 out on each side.  it also breaks out the incoming din signal in to 1/4" in and out patch points, so if you patch the start/stop and clock signals to the other side you can have one din in and 5 din outs.  you can also patch lfo's or other clock sources into the 1/4" in's for some interesting results.

Cykong's site says that the 800dv is most similar to the 770 (x2), not the 700, I remember reading that somewhere else too.  I wonder why that is.

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

The 770 has got more options imho.
800dv is more a dual 700(s)
