...I need another synth so I can finish some of the tracks I'm working on. I've been doing alot of "Klubbheads" type stuff. What I wanted to ask is should I trade my 303 for a JP-8000? I know, I know but...

Wait!...What am I saying?! I could never part with my 303!!! Idiot! Stupid!

What about my 777? Should I trade it for a JP-8000? I really need a good polysynth with an arpeggiator. I have a TB-303, FR-777, Juno 1, EA-1, TX81Z, BassStation, & a CZ-101 and none of these synths have an arpeggiator! What should I do? What should I trade for what?

Thanks for your serious replies!

Ah ha! I'm about to pick up an Akai ME20A Arpeggiator. I think this might freak my Juno 1, TX81Z, EA-1, Juno 106 (on its way), BassStation, and my CZ-101. It looks just like my Akai S612 too so it'll look good in my rack. = )

Has anyone used one of these before? Is it pretty dope? I'm picking it up for $85 US and its in mint condition but with no manuel. What do you think?

If you can spend a little cash you might want tocheck out the Yamaha CS6X. I love it. Has 128 arp. plus it is 16 part multi. Also you can add expansion boards. you can also sample with it though I haven't done it yet not my cup of tea. Though you can get a lot of really good sounds and if you know haw to program well that opens a whole world of possibilities. Well that's it.

Yeah, I drool over the CS6x but shit....its $1399+! That's alot of money for me at the moment. What I need to do is sell most of the gear I have now and try to save up and snatch one up. I haven't messed with one in person yet but I will soon. Oh man...that silver is so beautiful! = )

Right now I have a Juno 106 and that Akai ME20A Arpeggiator on thier way so I'll have to see how thats going to work. If it doesn't work out the way I want it to, then I guess I'll have to make out a "for sale" list.

Hey ReZo there is a place called Sixiecycle music or sixty cycle music something like that. I cam across them on EBAY www.ebay.com though he sells gear for dirt cheap. I bought my CS6X for $1250 delivered to my door. I know that is still a lot of money but it is a $150-$200 less and you don't have to pay tax!!!!! Also if you need to make some extra money just get a ski mask a hat and a gun and walk into the nearest bank and demand some money. Though it is kinda risky but my mommy always told me you need to take chances in life. ha ha ha Well what ever synth you do get try and get one that is mutli part and has as many outputs as possible. well later. Also on a different note has any one heard from Future Retro lately? Last time I talked to him about 6 mo. ago he said he was trying to make a drum machine that would blow the TR909 and 808 out of the water!

One of the best arpeggiators is found on the Prophecy and Z1.
Not only do you get standard UP, DOWN, ATL1, ATL2, and RANDOM, you get 5 programmable arpeggio banks...up to 24 steps, controlling gate, velocity, and even timing offset.

Pete, man...stop fucking around and get a real man's synth...the Prophecy!

Yeah, I hear you man. I think what I might end up doing is selling my Juno 1, and BassStation and get a Prophecy. Damn, the Prophecy is so fat! I need one!

Hey Pete Use the gear you have.Shit man after a while you end up w/ so many sound options that everything you do ends up sounding different.The object is to get people to say"Hey this must be a new track by so and so"not "I wonder who the fuck was playing with the groovebox this time".
