Re: Seeking synthesizer advice
If you want a great synth and don't want to spend enough to buy a herd of
PRS
guitars, look at some older (slightly) "workstations", like Roland
JV-1000,
or Korg 01W's and the "T-serise" (T1, T2, T3). I've owned Trinity's and
have
lusted after the new Triton, but actually my venerable Korg T3 is all I
need
to create serious music and/or chaos, whichever. And, as a bonus, it has
a
very tractable, realtime looping phrase feature that I use daily. In
fact,
many times that's exactly where I start...then when things are getting
pretty
well stirred up there for background 'ambience', I grab a guitar or
mandolin
or bass or my Prophecy or a mic and start looping and sampling over that.
(Sigh) So many fun things to try, so little time. ;-)
good hunting,
