Roland Fantom X
Nord G2 Modular
 
I definitely recommend the G2 if anyone wants to get into modular synthesis.  (Much more usefull and less expensive than a full rack of modules--but definitely not as cool or intimidating looking.)

I have lots of old synths, organs and electric pianos, too many to list.
I have an extremely rare Gleeman Pentaphonic for sale if anyone is interested. It has problems, but works fine occaissonally.

My first was a Korg Poly 61 which has long ago given up it's ghost.  I could make some really cool sounds by cranking up arpeggiater.  I've had a Kawai K1 for over ten years, maybe fifteen now and it has held up well.  Unfortunately the software I had for uploading and storing patches from my computer didn't work well past Windows 95.  So I'm stuck with my last configuration on the keyboard and another on the memory card.  Still there's a wealth of sounds there to play with.  By the way, I am extremely jealous of this guy:

I have a Yamaha DJ-X. It's designed for dancey nonsense but if you tweak it you can get some really nice sounds. I used it to control an Akai Vintage Synth module too but my friend wanted the module back. Cry

Do you still have the Gleeman? Is it black or clear?

Still have it, its black. Funny thing, I used to live in SF, it would have made it easy for you to check out the synth, I live in Memphis now.

I like Memphis, great food and music. What would you sell it for? I have a friend in France that really wants one, but of course he's looking for the clear model.

I was hoping to get back the thousand I paid for it. I haven't used it in a while, it definitely has problems. I'll check it out tomorrow and see what kind of shape it is in.

Cosmetically it is almost new, as far as functions go, I'll let you know tomorrow when I have some time. I know someone else who has one and apparently it has some of the same flaky problems that mine has.

Got one of thiose for Xmas Big%20smile
 
some nice improvements on the original without changing it too much, but some simple envelope-shaping would have been nice to soften the clicky attack. Play it through a decent amp & speaker combo - making the windows rattle is awesome.
