I said the Quasar blasts almost every 80's synth into
------
oblivion - my opinion, I'm entitled to it OK, or do you
want to take away that right as well ?.

"....As for the Quasar... are you seriously saying it blasts all synths from the 80's??"
read up mate......or is it a misquote or mis representation...... cos i left out the word 'Oblivion'.... it's a great unit as a polyphonic multi-timbrel unit to get you into those sounds cheaply...... but I couldnt agree that it blast almost every 80's synth into oblivion.... there were some great 80's synths.... especially the early 80's when they were analog & midi or DCO & VCF units with midi.... some of the stuff like the Ensoniq stuff were great , and what about the PPG ?... phew !!

'phat' is typically used to mean 'cool'. in reference to synths and sounds - well, it could just be cool, but more likely refers to a quality of "huge"ness, as in a "big" sound (like fat). usually lots of bass will give the average person the impression (illusion?) of 'phatness'.
personally i hate the term, as i hate most marketing catch-phrases. (notice the prevalence of the term in advertisements geared toward hip-hop and dance kit).

Music be goin' "wicked good, yo," but the guy wants my tx81z for the k3m. Am I ready for the "change up?" Another "rewind" in my kit list? "Mista Selecta, give 'em anoda one," piece of advice that is, should I ditch my stupid little tx81z?

Kilo-in all honesty, you seem a little quick on the draw since that little AC thing. Dont get me wrong, Im still grateful for your willingness to share info, but you seemed a little quick going after whatever that fools name was...oh yeah, replica.
Gotta admit, tis funny watching yall brawl like that---Is it hot everywhere!! Must Be!
"PIMP": Good point about the old guitar

never rated the PPG personally Mr Kilo. No if someone
was to give me a GX1 then maybe,just maybe I might get interested in FM again !.
The PPG for me always sounded thin and could'nt inject
any 'life' into a mix. I sooner have a POLYMOOG - yes
thats right a Polymoog !!.

in a box. oh yeah, and FM isn't just confined to
yamaha....many analog synths can do it, just look
at the matrix 6 for one. there are a few others
(obxa is one i've used. also i think the ax60
and the odyssey can do it). i personally haven't
got much use out of it, but i've spent maybe half
an hour with my tx81z since i got it two years ago.
it's not as much FUN to play with like my other stuff
still, eventually i'll get around to it and I know
there are some unique sounds in there...even better
I'll find someone willing to trade it for a casio
vz10m and get really killer FM sounds
