Re: What new booty have you acquired?

Actually, since very recently there has been a flood of collectors of analog and vintage stuff roaming the local ads, mostly guys who returned to Serbia with a lot of cash or some other story and just buying everything what is now considered as "high end vintage", so it's now a lot harder to grab anything that is for sale right there in the open. It's the experience that I gathered before they turned up, helping me find good deals at the depths of the internet. On the other hand, I've got suckers to sold the stuff to I don't want anymore for much more than I originally paid.

On the topic: Yesterday I found another Roland SBF-325, not in a great state but fully working, for 70eur. What were the chances to find two in 4 days, and so cheap?

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

ha! nice find. 70e is super cheap they go for 350-500 euro no?

Alpha Juno-1 for €120. Sounds great!

(I found a bunch of patch libraries i'd like to try, but it doesn't seem to receive them when I send them with sysex librarian. Does anyone know how?)

Thanks Danny, I figured it out. I needed to hold down the write button while selecting the dump receive mode.

Thanks! 900 english pounds. Not cheap but worth it. The pentiometers are the smoothest things ever.

I got it on my local craigslist.  The guy had bought it from a local seller for 200$, I had seen that ad and missed it bout 1 year ago.
He sold it to me for a little more because he thought it was broken, but it turns out it's not!

Congrats! I recently had one for recording and I was impressed, it's so powerful!

lol

Thought it was broken? It's not the hardest thing to use in the world. What did he think was wrong with it?

I love mine. One of my unsellables for sure.

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

Oh I thought you'd sold it, one pad triggers louder than the other when both are set to max sensitivity, but that might be normal, it's fine with a Roland trigger so the unit itself is fine.

How loud is the output on yours? Mine could be a bit hotter.

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

Just went to brunch and ending up getting an Ensoniq DP-4 for $175.  cool

Re: What new booty have you acquired?

I always thought brunch was overrated... I clearly see that I was wrong.

I had two for a brief time, sold one. It was going to be the minty one for the minty price or the beatup one for the beatup price. The beatup one sold. Minty for life! I love mine. My levels seem very consistent with triggers. With the drums it's another story. They're very sensitive. My drummer friend can rock them really well but when I play them it's hard to consistently strike them the same way every time so it sounds like hell.
