Here's my recently acquired Roland JP8000.
It looks mega dirty in this shot because it was. The foam lining in the roadcase it came with was crumbling to dust and had gotten all over the place.
Luckily for me, the pots seemed pretty much unafected but I gave it a good cautionary clean, anyway.

That looks awesome.

I have an Alesis Micron synth but I rarely use it anymore. And when I do it's mostly for the organ sounds.
I would love an old combo organ.

i quite fancy a mini synth of some sort (the new korg ms-20 looks lovely), as this thing's a fucking monster.

these are my two. the vox needs a bit of work though, the oscillators need replaced from time to time.

pretty sure the girl from cowtown uses one. the original version of this track definitely started with one of the pre-programmed beats from it.

Digging the new forum section here. I will be photographing my stuffs soon.

Aen, don't you have a Minibrute as well? And Mages, I just bought an FB-01 the other day and came across your patches and the Heavy Strife album before I finally made the connection. Do you still have yours?

ah yeah, I don't have the FB-01 anymore. those patches were really popular though, go figure. I have a Roland D-110 that fills a similar role right now (cheap sounding digital synth). I have thought about getting another one though just because I am so familiar with it.

if you like those sort of sounds you should check out this guy: http://soundcloud.com/nacho-marty
he has some bangin tunes.

Can't argue with that logic. I've been keeping an eye out for Voyager Old School models, which were closer to the Model D: no MIDI, no touchpad, no presets. Switched On has one for $1,800 right now and it's killing me.

Damn, some very fresh sondz there. I picked up a Roland JV-1010 last year (and a rad Vintage Synth expansion card) and I'm really digging it. I pretty much use it as a preset machine as a nice polyphonic foil to Little Phatty, but the FB-01 was very attractive at only $45+shipping for dirty FM stuff. It should be here in the next few days and I'm excited to dig in and give your patches a whirl.
