To do this live show, it is becoming clear that I will need some gear. But first, that means I have to sell some other stuff and square away a few debts. In that spirit, I guess I am going to go back on my word when it comes to selling certain items I had sworn not to. Sentimentality has to be sacrificed in the name of progress. So here goes..
MFB Synth II
 |
I got this one in trade from a friend not to long ago. I love the thing – its got a great analog sound and a really nice little sequencer. Add some FX and Sync it to your favorite analog drum machine and you have Nitzer Ebb’s That Total Age in a box. |
Korg Electribe ESX1
 |
This is the Electribe that samples. Its awesome. Unfortunately, it is also not 100% working. I have a feeling its nothing more than a loose connection in the display, as it works most of the time, then sometimes the display goes buggy and you cant use the instrument. You leave it alone/off for a while and it goes back to normal. Think of it as your schizophrenic uncles drum machine and you will do fine. I am definitely willing to sell it at a price that is appropriate for what is wrong with it. This one I will definitely get again some day. I just really need something reliable for the stage rig. |
Kawai XD5
 |
This is a great little sound machine. I sampled it off a while ago, and now it just sits in the rack. I am willing to let this go really cheap if anyone wants it. I really don’t want to deal with eBay fees on this one (or any of these auctions). Please…buy it! |
Yamaha TG500 and Emu e64
 |
Yeah, I am too lazy to take separate pics. Sue me.
Anyway, these two are sentimental classics. I wrote my first album on that e64, and while its display is dim and its fan makes a bit of noise, its still a great box. I am willing to let it go really cheap simply because of the display. If you know anything about anything the fix is pretty easy and cheap. I will also include a box of various SCSI device that I will never ever use again (zip drives, jaz drives, a CD-Rom and a mess of disks and cables) just to get them out of my damn life. The TG500 was not used on my first album, but its sister product the SY85 basically WAS that album. All the songs were written on its 8 track linear sequencer of Joy. The sound is amazingly good, partly because synths at this time did not employ compression to fit as many as they could into a small ram space. Its not the easiest thing to use, and definitely not the most advances synth, but its still a great musical resource. I also have a couple cards for it, and they will be included. |
Yamaha MG16/6 Mixer
 |
Ok, so its not a Toft Audio or a Speck. It works, and it works well. I need something smaller for my live rig that can fit in a rack and be left alone. I don’t need all the EQ, as that will be done in the samples before I run them to the rig.
I am not going to let this one go free, but its definitely going to be reasonable. I would also trade it for a DJ mixer, possibly, or for some kind of FX. This one is a bit more open. |
So that is it. If anyone is interested, send me mail to tony at this domain dot com (if you cant figure that out, your a scum sucking bot and you can go to hell with you and your ass bot face) and let me know your offer.
I might be posting up more later. Maybe.
I am interested n the Yamaha Tg500 and the cards. What price were you looking for?email me if it is still for sale.What would shipping be for 39402. (Mississippi USA) I would to prefer to use paypal. Thanks, JMR jmrap007@hotmail.com
Sorry I didnt get back to you sooner. I just got back from a business trip and havnt had access to my blog.
I still have the T500 and its cards. I’d like to see $225+ shipping for it.
I’m interested in the MFB Synth II, what price are you looking for? I’d need it to be shipped to Dublin, Ireland.
Thanks a lot,
Cormac
Sorry the MFB is now gone.
