Hi, no im not anal about this stuff, but i read a few threads with folks having problems with oscillator tracking/tuning and ground hum making it into the audio- i definitely dont want problems like that! Thanks for all the helpful suggestions folks. The Trogotronic power system looked to be good bu...

Thanks for all the helpful suggestions folks.
The Trogotronic power system looked to be good but Mungo says not?
Hmmm... will give it some thought.

Sorry brain fart.. its about 24U not 9U. Each row 150HP.

Afternoon peeps, not sure if this is the right place for this post, but im having a nice eurorack wood case built for me by the good dude Ross Lamond, its going to be about 24U and each row about 150HP (if i remember correctly).... I had a nice chat with Ross about power supplies for the case and he...

I like this filter, only complaint is the electronics are "potted" like the early 2600 sub-modules, meaning if there is a failure its going to be a real pain to try to have serviced.... really not sure this was a sensible thing to do...

For those that are interested i got a message from Robin today to say that im up to number 24 on the waiting list, i sent my cheque deposit to EMS in April 2011. BTW, current price for a VCS3 is £5450 excluding VAT..

The 3100 wins for me, the resonators are great. Also you have an LFO that goes really fast, well up into the audio range, 1KHZ i believe, so is great for FM. Also has a nice chorus, it is like the Juno 60 in the respect that its all sweet spots and sounds great. But can get pretty wild too. The PS32...

Yes.. it is the end for Roland. They are dead, dead as a dodo or doo-doo. Whatever.. anyway. They are dead. DEAD DEAD DEAD
I hate you Roland
DIE DIE DIE

Fluid F8S is really good and cheap.
Believe me, it sounds good, fills in the last 2 octaves nicely, blends really well with mains

We all know Behringer gave you a free Deepmind synth and that you and Uli are now best buddies. So can you quit with all the BS.... Its blatantly obvious to anyone with half a brain that Uli is taking the piss big time with his latest antics... Funny all these people who are suddenly fans of Mary Cu...

I think the best thing about the new machine is that it outputs cv gate AND accent out... so you can use it to say make basslines on a modular with those slides and accents, whereas the old one just put out cv and gate

Did he say how much the prices are going up by?

Yes this week...
to tell me my new Synthi A has been delayed by about 6 months and has gone up in price.

Sorry a little bit spamy but i have a Mackie 1202 (original) thats great for this sort of thing, anyone want it? Say £50? Im in the uk

Bump!
Anyone spoken with Robin recently or got a nice new synth from him?
I was at position 38 in April 2016, from position 51 in Jan 2016, i should email and see where i am now, maybe in the mid 20's....
I think 2017 and maybe i will have my VCS3!

Also, worth noting the LFO can go up i believe 1KHZ!
So you get some crazy FM going on...
Its great for chord stuff, its a real ambient dream machine.

I thought Behringer might have had a hand in this as it surely makes a polysynth a little bit easier for them? Wonder what will come of all this.. it will be interesting to see if we get some new CEM based poly's, especially if 3320's are on the way too But its certainly great news for owners of vin...

If i wanted a frequency shifter module, do i just order at Schneiders and Cwejman will then build me one up? Ive never ordered new Cwejman modules before, is there a long wait?

The Rv-1 is really nice, it has a limiter to smooth the input out a bit, wet/dry mix and some EQ. Probably a 2 second decay. I have the stereo Rv-2 and the spring tank in my RE501. I had the BX-5 was quite nice, but i prefer the Furman, the BX-5 isnt true stereo unit btw. I always loved the look of ...

Must say i think its a complete piss take people buying new Synthi's or VCS3 with no intention of keeping them just to flip for a profit. If you dont want one then drop off the list.

BTW that DK2 looks lovely, you have to hand it to Robin he takes his time but boy he builds some top quality equipment I guess he is counting down to zero. I don't care if he uses prime numbers as long as I get one. I spoke with Mr. Wood. The DK2 is 1250 GBP with a 2 year projected delivery time. ht...

I think your looking at > 2 years mate, i joined the list 2 1/2 years before you and Robin said he thought i was still 2 years away in Jan 16 My timeline: 19/4/2011 deposit received 3/4/2013 number 103 18/11/2013 number 97 8/4/2015 number 63 21/7/2015 number 57 5/1/2016 number 51 19/4/2016 number 38...

Yeah so id guess he must be in his early/mid 70's now? Great that he still enjoys his EMS work, would be nice if he had some help to get through the back orders though! Anyone know how old Robin is? Curious is all. I was thinking he must be in his late 60's or early 70's? you can see him here: What ...

What month/year did you send your cheque to Robin? Nevermind, i see you mentioned you are at number 114.. Hmm i think 2 years is quite unrealistic, i was at number 51 in beginning of Jan 2016 and he said quote: "..Still two years away I reckon..." Just received a message from Robin. According to him...
