Hi Keyboard player is seeking a new palette of sounds in a modular synth or sampler. can't afford the newest or best... so what's out there on E-bay etc.? I am not into tweaking the sounds and doing synthesis editing, so what i seek is a module with lots of cool factory sounds. Any impressions of specific Emu proteus sounds? Mo-Phat or Orbit (cool leads, not for drum loops)? What about old Akai samplers? Nothing cheesy sounding like older general midi / FM modules. I currently use a Roland , a Kawaii and a Korg keyboard. A new unit would be for SOLO sounds (not piano/organ... already have those)... so I am looking for some Phat killer analog sounding cool filter sweepy over-driven not-heard everywhere else solo sounds! Am i better off w/ proteus modules, or going for a used Nord or maybe a Roland JV or a sampler? I will not take a computer to gigs... (don';t trust em).... so NO software stuff. I cant afford a Kurzweil 2661 or Karma or Triton. Please Help! OK... post your impressions or dreams for killer synth soloing sounds in a module! Thanks +Tripp
Roland JD 990 - It may be old, but it's one of the best sounding Roland instruments ever built. The filters are just plain beautiful, and the analog feel facility is very good ;-) tripp wrote: > Hi > Keyboard player is seeking a new palette of sounds in a modular synth or > sampler. can't afford the newest or best... so what's out there on E-bay > etc.? > > I am not into tweaking the sounds and doing synthesis editing, so what i > seek is a module with lots of cool factory sounds.
