It wasn't that good of a deal... I traded my DW-8000 for a Electribe EA-1!
As far as I remember, The Esx or Emx weren't even released whan I made that deal. I simply wanted something small to fit on my Jerker desk. In retrospect, the deal wasn't that great as the DW-8000 was/is a pretty great standalone synth. I also recall reading somewhere that Depeche Mode used it exstensively during Black Celebration. That doesn't surprise me. It definetly has that sound to it.
Unkle Donkle, good luck with the repair. Maybe you are a more motivated man than I am! I've had a Yamaha DX -11 sitting in my closet for about two years which is just collecting dust. I needed to get a battery put into it (which I did) but still can't figure out how to get the "sounds" back into it. Apparently, this involves a sysex dump but I was utterly lost trying to figure that out.
In any event, I just checked my tracking number and I am scheduled to receive my new Access Virus ti Snow tomorrow! As I mentioned before this is my first Access Synth. I can't wait. I'm fairly confident it will inspire me all the while sounding amazing. I just want to hear those pads! Throw in all those Access ti patches that are readily available and I think I will be in heaven just trying to configure which souns to store in which banks. $1250 is a lot of dough and I have 30 days to keep or return it. Win/Win situation!
