Dont it wind you up not knowing the future, example back in 1985-87 when i was a bit younger and skint there was a music shop near me where pro 1s, korg monopolys,and some truly alien looking yamaha analogs with 8 or 16 knobs all in a line for step seqs and so forth,and they where selling or not as the case was just before the 89 analog age revival,for like �80.00 a piece ,makes me sick as i have all the modern virtual stuff ,but none of them have that truly solid sound......must build time machine go back buy all analog bring back midi up ,trash virtuals,real filters ,real osc drift,real bass ends,seems to me the virtual ones have bass that is as wide as analog but analog is solid right through and virtual is big but hollow like a balloon.oh well.sorry for going off on one .

sometimes i really really really want hollow sounding bass.

but i know what you're on about. mostly, if not fully i agree.

but today such wishing is pointless so i must go do things

get a syntechno TeeBee trust me on that for hollow earth shattering real analog bass & more, plus the teebee does so much more also it is a great 6 pot controller rack, with big solid last-ages knobs and solid metal plus it has 2 midi ins (&outs) to allow merging of contrller data to your sequencer with the other data from your chain, all in all a great box.

Don't forget those cv gate i/o's. Add a distortion pedal and your good to go! I played the mp'3s of it to some TB enthusiest, some of which own or have owned a 303 and they were blow away, but it can sound like other mono gear as well. I've got a juno, a bass station, and a sh-101, and all i use on my tracks now is my sampler, nova, and microwave. True if you sweep the filter you can hear the differance, but in a mix they sound finished, so it is much faster to program and call up patches and get good music done. The bass lines on the modeled stuff is very suited for the sound i'm going for. I found my tracks with the old gear sounded old and dated. If I use an analog for a bass sound i have to eq it more and denoise it half the time because of crackles and unwanted artifacts. They require to much proccessing. If I need analog, I've got it, but I really don't use it as much. I'm waiting for the Andromeda. If it does what it's supposed to, and i can pull off jupiter style sounds, I'll buy one for the right price. Otherwise I'll buy a mks-80. I'm definately getting the syntechno when I sell my bass station. They are going to have to bury me with my sh-101 though.

i have been assured that the alesis Masterlink is top quality. still though, i hesitate. of course, i don't have the money now anyway. but shit.. hard to decide. fully usable set o' features though..

and the future is more oblong than egg-shaped i thinks

The masterlink seems pretty cool except
that someone up here said it it didn't
have a multi-band dynamics section like
the finalizer,dbx,drawmer machines.What
do you think I should sell my finalizer
96k for I paid 2300 US for it.I use TC's
audio editor on my MAC and you can chain
together compressors,and eq to do
realtime multiband processing so the
finalizer has become a really expensive
a/d.Anyway I'm considering the Tascam
788 so that I can finally track live
parts w/o having to worry about
latency.I've had a hard time getting a
good spec list on the machine,even the
tascam site doesn't say anything about
the supported sample rates.i use a dvcam
professional camcorder and it only
supports 48khz anybody know about the

Get a Quasimidi Sirius, they are a wicked synth and with quasimidi being bought out and production being stopped, im sure they will be worth a penny soon enough.

I don't know what happended , but their polymorph was the physical modeling synth that was really up front and warm. the sirius sounded cool but fell way short of analog. Orbital used the polymorph extensively on "Middle of Nowhere" along with the electribe ER-1 for beats. Jomox is sweet. I think mixing modeled and analog, as well as FM and digital together i get the textures i need. If i used all analog it would sound way too rhetro.
