I know a guy selling an old Paia modular synth if anyone's interested...
He's also selling a 505 (tentatively sold to my friend.)

Edit: Here's a picture,

good ol analog....
but shit, that guy has talent... to play a constant bassline and a melo is a tedious task for even pro producers..
what kinda synth is that btw?

That's a Synthesizers.com (http://www.synthesizers.com) modular synth - kind of like a Moog modular, only made this year instead of in the 70's. Modulars are cool - each bit does something different, and you design sounds by patching cables between the bits to make up a signal path.

I used to lust after a large modular rig, and actually still do a bit, but then I got a Nord Micro Modular (http://www.clavia.com), which basically fulfilled all my needs. Same idea, only virtual, so you can design your sounds on the computer, then disconnect it and just bring the (VHS tape-sized) hardware out to shows. Better yet, you don't have to repatch the whole system to get a new sound.. :)

IMHO, the synthesizers.com stuff is fantastic, but pretty much pitched at synthesists and hobbyists, the kind of people where if synths were cars, they'd be driving an MG.

Now this is a lustworthy synthesizer: http://www.clavia.com/products/nordmodular/

one day, in the not-too-distant future, I will own a G2... I love my first-gen Nord Modular to death, but the Nord Modular G2 is *sick*... if you know synthesis, you can make pretty much any sound imagineable...

er, oh, do you mean the PAIA synth that djOKIBI posted? looks like a 4700-series, long since out of production... they were sold as kits, you had to build it yourself. http://www.paia.com

That's pretty crazy. That'd be a neat project to build.

no kidding eh?! I don't even think my fingers can move that fast PERIOD... let alone both hands, in a consistant order in and out of scales on a keyboard... that was INSANE
