AppA Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 I am beginning this thread purely because I have my Electribe ES-1 back. I don't care if people say it isn't hardware, I am having LOADS of fun out of it making music on the fly It's really crap that I don't have anything at the moment to put it on my computer (my stinky cardreader is broken), so I've begun to record my 'sessions' on my beloved k750i. This is also why I didn't make another 'appreciation' thread. That's because you have to LOVE your hardware Post your hardware luvvin' stories right here :drama: Quote

Jikkenteki Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 I love my Eventide Ultra-Harmonizer H3000 D/SX and my Lexicon MPX1!!! I also love my Nord Lead 1 and my Virus B, but those are obvious choices.... My Korg Electribe EA-1 is still an old favorite as is my Juno Alpha 1. That's about all the hardware I use at the moment, although I'm still debating whether to sell my T.C. Electronic M-One or put it back in the rack as I used its reverbs a lot on the Nord. Quote
AppA Posted June 6, 2007 Author Posted June 6, 2007 Yes TJM, some vintage is ownage, especially when you have it or can afford it Same goes for hardware Jikkenteki mentioned Quote
XpandoZ Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 I'm going to get a job this summer so I can finally afford this spaceship :drama: : Quote

Rupture Posted June 6, 2007 Posted June 6, 2007 Colin's modular pwns. AppA,that's the Alesis Andromeda A6 i've been looking forward to get a ensoniq fizmo,but they're getting rare Quote
needle ninja Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 The first hardware I ever bought was an old Yamaha W7. It had 16 buttons in the front -one for each midi channel and they would glow eighter green or red (if selected). It didn't have much controllability, just the modwheel and a data slider but I used them both in every patch I created.... Aaah the good old days of playing with sounds on that thing and saving the settings to a floppy. Quote
AppA Posted June 7, 2007 Author Posted June 7, 2007 *clueless n00b accidentally wanders into thread* cant you read whats written on it ? If I had the time to maximize it Though my hardware knowledge rarely exceeds cheap shit so... @ Rupture, thank you for the information. You are very kind. Kinder then reger Quote
supergroover Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 i saw NOS live the other day in sweden. A nice acid set with 2 303's a 909 101 MS20 and some other old school synths.. Too cool and totally RAD Gotta love it.. Personally I prefer to work 'in the box' because of the easiness. I never really got into working with external hardware. But it surely is lovely to hear the oldschool vibe and sounds from these machines. Quote

Heh, not a good idea to go to hardware for easiness Sometimes I wonder where those artists get the money from for those boxes Quote
supergroover Posted June 7, 2007 Posted June 7, 2007 buying them 20 years ago? or by looking for them at garagesales for 20 years? Quote
AppA Posted June 10, 2007 Author Posted June 10, 2007 buying them 20 years ago? or by looking for them at garagesales for 20 years? I'm afraid I must choose the latter. ...unless you would happen to have a time machine? Quote
frosty Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 novation xiosynth rocks!! i brought it coz my sound card stuffed up. and i have no regret. check them out. midi keyboard, synth, sound card etc all rolled into one. Quote
needle ninja Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 Well my delta-66 has been a worry-free soundcard for years with fantastic sound and low latency. I think I am going to get another keyboard stand so that I can have my little fatty on the right; the Edirol on the left; computer in the front with my swivel chair in the middle. I love my little fatty....that sounded wierd Quote
supergroover Posted June 13, 2007 Posted June 13, 2007 how do you like the cs1x for psychedelic sounds? Quote
