FFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUCCCCCCKKKKKKKKK TONIGHT GOT AWAY FROM ME. JUST MISSED ONE FOR 216. FUCK THAT.

Damnit! I had a feeling about that auction. $216 is a good damn price.

Damnit!

Did get a dbx 163x for $43. (haha, originally wrote $143, when I just read it, I panicked, did I really pay that much, haha! tripping)

But I really wanted to play around with a mopho on the cheeps. See what that prophet 08 sound is about.

They cost pennies.

Can mod them and turn them into the "poor man's ssl comp".

I'm looking for another one now to go sterereo.

Nothing is necessary...but if everyone is just using the same shit then what's the point...that's completely missing the point IMO. Nothing is REQUIRED, nothing is NECESSARY...you could make Dubstep with a microphone and a minidisc recorder if you had the drive for it, let's be honest. Everything else is just fluff.

I hate conformed standards, this whole cliched fallback response of "well you don't need fancy shit you just need to know what you've got"...yes, this is true but it doesn't apply to EVERY scenario, every thread, every discussion.

It's nice to think outside the box, move away from being stuck in front of a keyboard/monitor all the time...just messing around with thingans. On the MIDI controller gives you the control, hahaha, you may be thinking...but so what? It's like posting a picture of a car on a racetrack and someone saying "oh you could just get a remote controlled one and a decent controller etc etc..." but it wouldn't be THE SAME would it?

Why should the philosphy/approach on this sort of thing (music, FFS, it's an ART no matter what people tell you...1s and 0s not withstanding) be any different?

MY GOD
THIS GUY GETS IT

True

Trying to get a korg poly-800.

You know what, I think that poly market is going to deflate. It has recently, very recently, gotten out of control. All these new polys, arturia is going to do it, they must, they're going to poke a hole in the poly market. Dude wants 800 for a korg poly 61... that is a 2 hundred poly, or maybe a 300.

Blah. Missed out on the MPC, guy already sold it to someone who sells parts.

So its just gunna get junk'd probably.

Still keep looking at Virus TI2. I don't know if I want to spend more than what my computer costs on a bit of hardware. Played with the key version lots in show rooms, I know i'd love it.. Just..

If you were to choose between a Moog MiniTaur and a Korg MS-20 Mini, what would you choose?

knobgoblin · Post by **knobgoblin** » Tue Jan 27, 2015 2:48 am

MS20 is way more flexible and interesting sounding. The Moog filter sound has always been boring to me though, so I may be biased.

mks · Post by **mks** » Tue Jan 27, 2015 3:03 am

I've wanted an MS-20 for a long time. That moog just sounds fat though. I do have one of the original Big Briar lowpass filters so I have that if I do want the moog filter.

You do modular stuff, don't you knobgoblin? I am looking to start heading in a semi modular direction right now.

Wasn't that impressed with the minataur when it came out. But in retrospect, it does have a seriously ballsy sound do it. It isn't raw, as I prefer, but it is legitimately ballsy.

Have no experience with the korg mini. But it seems toyish to me.

The minataur seems like a real synth.

But Moog stuff seems to me to be overpriced. Like a 40% markup for hype. I haven't felt anything moog in some time now. Last was like some kind of phatty and I was blown away by how cheap it felt. Though the minataur does seem solid, again, never felt it.

If you were to credit what I say, my credit score would be 330.
