Yeah, Ive seen you with your Nord Wave in some updates. What A Brilliant Idea for a Board. That Vid of you having tuning issues with the P5 is Hysterical.  I Cant believe you sold the JP-8!!  I completely agree with the sexiness of the P5 but the JP-8 I always thought was a close tie!  Plus the Value or should I say "The Gear Slutz" Value of the JP-8 is Ridiculous!! Hope you got at least $6k for your Jupe!!! :shock:

Ive heard good things about it!  Im actually starting with the New Presonus Studio one pro and Capture with the Studiolive 16.4.2 Console. Only Problem was of course the POS PC and Its firewire chip set. Threw the Mac on it and Vwualah!
   Maybe take a look at the Presonus stuff!  Just a thought.

Quote from: "gr8gonzo"first "keyboard" was a Casio something-or-other, which I recently attempted to identify online without success. Faux woodgrain, 61 key, 6 note polyphonic with rhythm presets (including Hall & Oates "I Can't Go For That"). Found one model that was close-ish, but not a match.

first synth was a Roland Alpha Juno2, high school graduation gift in '86. Still have it.
hmmmm, Casio, Wood Sides...  This? http://www.vintagesynth.com/casio/ct101.php

The Bestestestest thing was what My Dear Grandma got for me in 88'  The Roland D-50! Gem, Ever Hear of that one??  :mrgreen: Had a Rich Spoiled Brat Heighbor whose Mommy got him a JX8P. He Couldnt play so It sat at My house on my A-frame with the D-50 and 6 Trak along with a MMT8 and HR-16b.  I was the Shiznit in High School! well, I thought so!  8-)  :roll:  looks like Im starting another thread in a thread!   ill be over here.......... :?
