Hi,

Assuming the UK price for a '61 will be £2999 (anything less is a bonus!), I reckon I'll have to sell:

(please note, this is not a "I have for sale" thread, so please don't make me offers!! )

M3-61 c/w Radias & M256... £850 ?
Akai MPC1000...£300 ?
Yamaha DX7 mk 1... £150 ?
Blofeld Desktop ...£200?
....( what, only half way there !!)

Roland D-50... £120 ?
Virus TI Snow ( )...£500
Ensoniq ESQ1 ... £100 ?
Another DX7...£150 ?
Korg Trinity Plus...£250?
Casio CZ101...£100 ?

...(scraping the barrel now!)
Yamaha PS6100...£30?
Casio VL Tone.. £20 ?
Liver (we got two of them things, right?... no? )... £30

Still short! Maybe a bit of Saturday morning buskin' with the VL Tone before it's Ebayed !!

M3-61 c/w Radias & M256... £850 ? definitely

Akai MPC1000...£300 ? dunno. kronos is short on pads and control surfaces

Yamaha DX7 mk 1... £150 ? one of them, immediately

Blofeld Desktop ...£200? yes

Roland D-50... £120 ? no

Virus TI Snow £500 yes, imo, on a "redundancy vs bang-for-the-buck" basis

Ensoniq ESQ1 ... £100 ? no

Another DX7...£150 ? keep that until you have dumped your patches in the kronos, then sell

Korg Trinity Plus...£250? yes

Casio CZ101...£100 ? no

...(scraping the barrel now!)

Yamaha PS6100...£30? definitely

Casio VL Tone.. £20 ? you are kidding

liver only if kronos had better brass and winds

the "no" mean: the kronos doesn't directly replace that kind of sound. If you really like it, keep it. Otherwise, I don't like either synth, so sell them

Bonners are currently suggesting a price of £2599 for the K61 - hopefully DV247 will be somewhere under this.

Of course if this is wrong and it is £3,000 (nearly $5K) then one of the kids will have to go... Can I get part exchange on a six year old!

Maybe I could get a free Kronos if they extend the what would you do for a Kronos to Europe.

If it is £3K then I'll keep the kids and not by the Kronos.

[EvilDragon]

I'll import from USA. I'll sell nothing.

[EXer]

I'll sell nothing.

I don't have so much gear, but all my synths have been carefully chosen to cover different synthesis methods and each of them has a sound character of its own. I would regret not having any of them anymore.

[BillW]

I already sold my M3-73 w/EXB-RADIAS, CX-3, VK-8M and AN1X.

Like EXer, I can't bear to sell any of my gear. Though, unlike EXer, I uhm... have way too much gear for my own good.

Still, I have a spare E-mu e6400 with about 20GB worth of samples and a JAZ drive... a Yamaha V50... a fully loaded Kurzweil 2000R with a SCSI hard drive and another JAZ drive... a Wavestation A/D... Arturia Moog Modular V... hrm... maybe an MKS-50... Fantom X, maybe? No, I need my Roland sounds... I need my M3 for the fantastic synth action...

Bummer, and I do think I'm going to be about a grand shy, thanks to the PC3 purchase. What to do, what to do...

SELL NOTHING. I sold a few synths in the past to finance this or that and always regretted it later.

The only thing I can see selling for sure is my M50.

Depending on how well the Kronos fills other needs:

-I might sell my FS1R (FM), and Roland JD-990 (Analog Synths).

-Have a Kawai K5000, don't see korg replacing that.

-I have a Korg 01/wr that I can't bring myself to part with. I can't express how much I would LOVE to see the 01/w added to the Legacy collection in Kronos!

-I have an Alesis QSR too, but it's nearly worthless. No point in selling!

-Ensoniq ESQ1. Sentimental Value, and also pretty worthless anyhow.

Keeping my Motif, current live show is based around that, and I'd bet it's the Kronos other half in many ways.

I most certainly would never consider selling anything in advance of a new keyboard.. it will take months before I would have the confidence in the workflow, sonic character and operational effectiveness (aka fit for my use and no bugs) for me to get to the point where i realise some other board is a doorstop..

and even then doorstop or not, every board i have has its own certain appeal..so none are likely to go..lol
