sometimes there are small differences within a series, for example: the CS range from yamaha - some have punchier envelopes and the like...small differences, but still differences i guess...

what i am wondering is, if i was to buy the waldorf pulse would it be similar to buying an older one...

you really have to read up about the models themselves (everywhere u can). not only for sound but also for stability and reliability...

i just dont know about that whole CV/midi converter and with some of the rolands u have to a special DINsync convertor...?
|
im not really worried so much about the cv to midi thing because i dont mind playing the instrument itself then recording to the sampler or straight into the PC....thats why for me, im really looking for stuff in good condition....
but if u wanna set up midi wise it isnt that difficult for many instruments.....lots of instruments can be retro fitted now days with midi...but u can always go for a converter from kenton or something....they cost around 90 to 100 bux or so...but you can buy another analogue synth for 90 or 100 bux, why waste the money. (thats if you can play instead of clicking the mouse)

But i was trying to make a list and these seem to be what im interested in tell me what u think...

i think alot depends on the sound u r after.
if you can get some for cheap enough, get them and try them out, then sell them on...thats my pplan at the moment....

oberhiem matrix 1000 and xpander
sh101
mc202
mono/poly (although its getting expensive)
jx 3p
ms-20
kord mini (although its getting rich too)
cs01 from yamaha
sh 3a
sh 1
