It looks like an vivisected, raped alien! Horrible!

Re: The Ugly Gear Topic

yeh but it makes great fart noises

Re: The Ugly Gear Topic

yeah i agree that 707 sounds very good.
i've seen worse executed mods on 707's.
the ugliest thing to me is the sticker above the display

Re: The Ugly Gear Topic

thats pretty ugly, but check out this one with individual pitch controls.. almost looks stock

Re: The Ugly Gear Topic

the pitch controls look awesome, I wish mine had that when I had it, but where did the volumes go?

I usually find circuit bending to be ugly, uninspiring and sounding like crap.

Re: The Ugly Gear Topic

then you will probably need a remote control mod for it

Re: The Ugly Gear Topic

pitch on 707 would be pretty cool.

Re: The Ugly Gear Topic

I like the XT! the colour is awesome and so is the Q. They look hot.

Some classic design failures here already...i'll add this lot:

@ Wasubot
Taste is subjective I guess!, personally I'd take an Sh-3a and a Revolution over any of the fluorescent Waldorf synths

Re: The Ugly Gear Topic

for sure.. and they both work very well too. the 3a is really nice to have all the controls in the small space next to the keyboard, and once you get used to the ''round'' concept of the revolution, its not bad..
