awepittance Posted October 12, 2015 Report Share Posted October 12, 2015 (edited) the sad thing is that the chances of this synth landing in the hands of a musician with the intent to use it on a pubclicly released recording are about 5-10%. Its a fact that some of the coolest/rarest synths in the world are owned by gear-whore rich mother fuckers who don't make music and just tinker when they get stoned at night after their wife goes to bed. the recordings they make sound like the first time any one of us played with a eurorack system Edited October 13, 2015 by John Ehrlichman Thanks Haha Confused Sad Facepalm Burger Farnsworth Big Brain Like × Quote Hide awepittance's signature Hide all signatures Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/89013-ems-synthi-100-up-on-ebay/#findComment-2379421 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest cult fiction Posted October 13, 2015 Report Share Posted October 13, 2015 Not the same model, but I remember when I first getting into synths back in high school saying "I should get whatever synth they used on track 2 of dark side of the moon that shit was sweet" thinking it would be super cheap since it was 70's technology... oh the disappointment that followed.

I'm not sure there are that many hidden gems out there. But you never know. I think the analogue boom has filtered through to schools enough for someone to parp up and say "well, we had this thing for years" and there we go. I think if there are any big surprises (ex school) out there then it's going to be a scenario where someone has taken them a good while ago (80s) from the schools and sat on them and then maybe passed away and the family is left with hoard of stuff and these gems nestled amongst. Totally guessing this though obviously. Quote Link to comment https://forum.watmm.com/topic/89013-ems-synthi-100-up-on-ebay/#findComment-2379626 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets not take this thread into software vs hardware territory shall we. Any person worth their salt knows that they both have their place and one is not better than the other whether you spend thousands or just use things for free.
