I can see why people like Money Mark and Beck and Tom Waits like em but I know I would really never use it with what I'm doing. There's a disc that just got made with krautrock sounds and mellotron sounds on it that you can buy for $100 and the same guys are making a synth pop one too but yeah can't pull the trigger.

just saw this in the thread. i have no idea what model ours is and it's really glitchy, but it was free and came with every record you could buy for them at the time. we've used it a ton for sampling, the cool thing is putting the discs in upside down so it plays everything backwards, extra psychedelic. i think broadcast's first record was mostly optigan too?

for mic'ing we just dropped a sm57 on it and then cleaned out some of the noise. i don't know if i'd trade a 202 for one, but they are definitely cool things to sample from.

worship the potentiometer.

Re: Should I buy...

Yes, but you need to check what condition the battery is in:

battery replacement

If its damaged its a pretty hardcore job if your not techy!

Re: Should I buy...

Battery was replaced with a new one. Where i can find cheap midi kit for p6?

Re: Should I buy...

I installed this in a friend, works and pretty easy to do.. But the build of the card is pretty crappy, have to bend pins on the connectors to get it to work.

But it works well. and Cheap too

I haven't bothered writing to the guy who makes it, stupid me, but the poor quality of the card is so annoying, I keep on loosing octaves and have to re-open the synth and re-sit the card, although that doesn't always do it... computerdisco's pin bending trick is the best bet smile

Should I buy a Yamaha TG77 for $120 US?

Re: Should I buy...

ok the search continues smile
I found relatively cheap Adam A7 monitors, 2nd hand (with 7 month warrantee) that i am willing to pay for.
Only one thing bothers me now - i remember being really impressed by them at the shop -
but also felt they might be "tiring" - really harsh trebles and stuff..
anyone here have experience working with them?

Re: Should I buy...

I've had A7's for about 18 months.  I love them! 

I don't find them tiring, but I don't monitor at extremely loud levels most of the time.  For me the issue with the A7s is at the other end of the spectrum - you'll be missing some low end if you don't add a sub.  Listen to an 808 bass drum on the A7's and you'll know what I mean.  It's not terrible by any means, but it's not all there.  On the plus side, the low end you do get from them is very detailed and tight.

Re: Should I buy...

Update on the TG77:
I splurged and bought it.
I found a really good Yahoo group dedicated to the TG77 where I downloaded about 100 sounds that other people had created as well as editing and librarian software that some complete dude had written for it.
It all works and sounds terrific to me.
If you get one Raoul, mail me and I'll give you some links etc.

I'm pretty stoked/excited.

Re: Should I buy...

I'm eyeing a Roland Dimension-D with a quite inviting price tag, local pickup ..anyone have/had one ?

Re: Should I buy...

I've heard demos online, to me it's the holy grail of choruses.

There's now a similar sounding Juergen Haible pcb of the Dimension D if you can diy.

Re: Should I buy...

@ erroraudio... I think I would buy it... I have seen some for much more. I tried a friend's one donkeys ago in Italy and loved it since, never came across one I could afford at the right moment though.

I had one, its weird, its some kind of stereo expander /chorus maybe more of an exciter. The difference you can hear is very subtile imo and there are only 4 buttons on it or something you can't edit anything.
It was a little too hifi for my setup and the prices are crazy for that thing so I traded it for a Korg Trident.
