how many of you have analog synths?

not as interested in juno's but anyone with moogs, arps, sequential circuits, MOTM, modcan, doepfer, etc. post your shit.

i lust after an analog synth.

I have:

Oberheim Matrix 1000 (1988?)

Boards of Canada in a box. Deep, thick, smooth, mellow, complex, etc. Zillions of mod routings, velocity, aftertouch, sweet filter. Plus you get 1000 presets

Edit: due to it's being an Oberheim, will also do perfect renditions of "Jump", "Africa" and "The Final Countdown" :laughing:

Korg Poly61 (1982)

Hilariously underpowered 2 osc pre-MIDI synth. Sounds nothing at all like the PolySix. Would be junk except that the narrow range of things it does well are PERFECTLY suited to modern electro. Basically, it's the nasty, gritty, dirty-ass filter that saves the day - this thing has serious character. The arpeggiator is fun too - I can synch it to my 606 with the analogue trigger in

Roland MKS-50 (1987)

I know you said no Junos, but this is a rackable Juno with decent MIDI, named patches, sub oscillator, portamento, chord memory (aka 1 finger trance riffs), velocity response and a slimy SH-101 like filter for credible aceeed noises Being a Juno it also does godlike strings and choice Blade Runner sweeps. Also: HOOVER

JoMoX Airbase 99 (1999)

Teh SUPAR analogue drumbox. 909 emulating kick, snare and toms with way more tweakability so it can do 808 as well (the kick has 7 knobs!). Hybrid (8 bit sample thru analogue EG) hats, clap, etc that are also pretty sweet. You can also use a noise source for analogue hats. Has 2 res filters and 2 routable LFOs and the bestest hugest, goes down to 20hz kick in the world

Roland TR-606

You know what this is

i do but they would fall under junos and stuff i think

mc-202

polysix

right now i just have a juno 106

but i'm going to save up for starting a doepfer setup

i'd pick up an ms-10/20/50 if i came across one some time

I'd come across an MS-20 if I saw one. I'd also buy it if I had a spare $1500

ive got:

korg ms 20 + ms 50

arp AXXE

arp 2600 (modded and half-broken, its really just one huge effects module/filter bank)

doepfer modular a100 system x 2

moog minimoog

next buy: a100 further expension, 5 x osc + more

nice. is the minimoog as fat sounding as it's hyped to be?

I have a Microkorg and an Alesis Micron. Both nice.

If drum machines count: Boss DR-550, DR-202 (Very recommended), Ace Tone Rhythm FEVER! (hee hee), & an Alesis SR-16.

I recommend a Microkorg, because it taught me a lot about synthesis and so forth. It sounds lovely & you can power it with batteries and go play it on your headphones in the middle of a picturesque Alpine valley.

mini moog is F A T

but not my favorite sound

why the hell would you want to bring let alone hear a shitty VA in the middle of a picturesque Alpine valley?

Not even the "Arched Maid Via RDJ" sync sound?

WIIIIIIIW WIW WAAAAWWWWW WOOOOOOWWW

WAA WAAA WA-WA-WAA-WA-WA-WAWAWA

actually i hate this track :fee:

Well, fair enough, then :laughing:

If I ever bought a mini, sync sounds would be the main reason.

I have an Analogue Mixer does that count? :laughing:

I dont think any of those are considered "analog" synths.

I have a large Doepfer modular + eventide fx processor. I make dark ambient 24/7

SCI Prophet VS Keyboard

It's the bomb

microkorg

i have:

- korg polysix,

- korg poly-800 (hehe ony "analog" things about it are the VCF and the final VCA... okay and the chorus)

- x0xb0x

i lust for a modular... when i have the $$$ i'll probably get a paia 9700 for start and then continue with doepfer modules... also interesting are http://www.musicfromouterspace.com DIY modules... i'll be probably building some of those in future.

otherwise i'd love to have a few real monosynths like korg's monopoly or some of the ms series...

I have an ARP solus which seems to be dying right now, one osc just produces a high squeel and the filter is non responsive.

But I like it, get some cool sounds from it and when you hook it up to the trigger/gate of a 606 you can make nice minimal ambient stuff.

ya i'm ordering a 9700 next month/month after that, it looks like its great value for money. not too sure about the build/sound quality though.. ;(

and have you ever heard of the blacet diy modules? pretty original and outlandish stuff, would make a great addition to a 9700:

blacet.com

btw i bought this lush wooden EMS VCS-style cabinet with 2x 6U space. i'm gonna fit my waldorf microwaveXT and sherman filterbank in the lower part of the cabinet, and my 9700 and assorted blacet-modules in the upper part..

i'm looking for something to make the fattest analog sub basses i possibly can. do you think the minimoog would excel in this department?

come on peeps...stop posting non-analog gear...fools

I have a kawai sx-210 and it's pretty nice and fun to play !!

All I have is a Roland JX-3P. I like it

a few wee ones, and access to a bunch oof big ones.

but at home.. sh101.. juno 60 (retro'd), moog prodigy.

and (not analogue).. pianet t.. rhodes.. roland xp70... korg ms2000

(yamaha portasound pss450.. tee hee).. plus a couple of cheap circuit bent bits.

microkorg etc, by the way, are not analogue synths. dolts.
