Re: Synth Chat
they're lovely. Mine's boring old grey. Got a mod handle for it? I need to find one so I can rock out keytar style.calling card wrote: ↑Mon Jul 11, 2022 1:40 pm I've got a Roland SH101, a blue one, humpty dumpty it's broken.
Such a unique and recognisable filter sound though, love it.

Re: Synth Chat
Yeah, gotta keep them together. would look weird with a blue handle anyway. I think 101s go for about 1300-1400 locally without case and mod-grip, that seems a bit steep tbh.calling card wrote: ↑Mon Jul 11, 2022 2:40 pm It does but I'm keeping it's mortal remains together.

Re: Synth Chat
This is pretty neat, a monthly challenge to create a track using just a single synth: https://sites.google.com/site/kvrosc/

Re: Synth Chat
I've had too many synths and have too many virtual synths. First was a DX21 back in about 1989. I used to noodle on the DX7 in the guitar shop I used to frequent, when it first came out. It was amazing.
Prior to that, I had a mate with a Wasp back in my early college days.
Since, I've owned most of the ones I coveted, my tastes are cheap in all things- synths, guitars, wine etc
Getting more enjoyment out of synths again and redoing my new order tribute setlist....

So, is that low alcohol or no alcohol at all? mmmm, no alcohol, do you want to try it? Noooooooooo.

Re: Synth Chat
I reckon I've had about 12 of those too I stopped buying the ones I coveted as they take up far too much room, even in rack form.moliere wrote: ↑Mon Jul 11, 2022 1:23 pm This is WAY too relevant to my interests, lol. I spend more time with synths now than guitars.
