Yeh, System 700. It was on an Auction here in Japan a while ago.

The is no doubt DSP technolgy is catching up fast, but I erge everyone ot sit down with a well known analogue machine now.

Listening to an analogue that has been recorded isn't enough - sure they sound good, but there is an undifinable warmth that doesn't translate well in recordings. Didn't believe it myself until doing it.

I'm sure most of you heard those clips I put up of my CS-10 (if not, click the soundclick link in my sig). That thing is a single OSC, single filter mono-synth, but the bass end has so much presence and the filter is bloody aggressive! Wish I could invite you guys into my studio so you could hear it pre-recording.

Don't get me wrong though, I love my DSP based VAs. There are things my VAs can do that I wouldn't dream of doing on an old analogue. Midi synced LFO madness for one.
