I sold ARP Axxe and MicroMoog but don´t really miss them as I´ve got a Odyssey and Minimoog and they are much better. But I miss the custom build analog modular Elektor Formant synthesizer.

I know guys who make the top 20 every other year in critics year end lists and who sell 100,000 records who are more modest than you.

What a tool.
Do you have any sense of the irony in trying to out-do Bones on a "who's more modest" level?

He contributes as much to KVR as any single indivudual, and you just called him a tool.

That doesn't make any sense. "Long gone?"

Maybe I move a whole lot slower than you guys, but in my time frame, the Alesis Andromeda just came out, is still unproven, and hasn't been around long enough to be "long gone!" That simply blows my mind. But then, I never buy anything that I don't intend to keep, and I've never in my life sold anything for more than I paid for it.

Different strokes anyway. My main axe is acoustic piano. But then, I play a lot of Mozart and Haydn and Grieg.

sold a juno 60, sh-101 and mc-202 when I moved from the UK to the US a few years back. and I have regretted that ever since. my advice is keep them, you'll miss them when they are gone.

I have a Korg Wavestation SR and Wavestation A/D and to be honest I can't tell the difference between the hardware and the Korg VSTi version. Also VSTi the version saves on electricity. I'll either put them into storage or sell them.

I've only owned a couple of hardware bit's, but I don't regret selling them, every now and again a hardware fire starts, then I remember that having to endlessly faff with buttons and menus to get a sound, then record it or lay it down with the in built sequencer or whatever, or out of sync with midi, just kind of waste's time, when better sounds a created without worry and latency inside the box.

However, having a hardware synth around is good as a standalone piece of equipment to practice ideas, keyboard skills, and musicanship. nothing beats grabbing the filter knobs and such.

But with space considerations, price and everything else, I bring it down to having a space I could be bothered to keep such equipment.

I have an M-Audio 'Venom' and that's enough for me.

Mine had fewer modules and a slightly darker cabinet, but yeah, that's one.
