Only one??? I've done two of those - one whilst inside the other
Got the last one planned next year |
I come from a small farm town in the midwest. Had I not had a job that took me all over Europe, NONE of those would have been possible.
And I'm killer jealous of you right now. _________________ Current Korg Gear: KRONOS 88 (4GB), M50-73 (PS mod), RADIAS-73, Electribe MX, Triton Pro (MOSS, SCSI, CF, 64MB RAM), SQ-64, DVP-1, MEX-8000, MR-1, KAOSSilator, nanoKey, nanoKontrol, 3x nanoPad 2, 3x DS1H, 7x PS1, FC7 (yes Korg, NOT Yamaha). |

I dont know how you extrapolated the comment "any new board needs to beat the UI" and extrapolated that into a FG love fest is beyond me...
i was making a simple statement that a three year old design with good ergonomics, large bright, angled display that offered easy viewing and editing while relaxed in a chair should have been a minimum benchmark for a ground up new design.
peace out

I never drove a Veyron. Anyway I don't care: a Veyron is not a Bugatti. It's a VW with a Bugatti badge on it, the result of Ferdinand Piëch's magalomania.
But I have experienced driving a *real* Bugatti, a Type 57S.
Pictures taken by myself May, 1st 2006 during an outing of the Club Bugatti de France in Gaume (a region in Belgium):
The chassis and engine are genuine parts of a Bugatti type 57S. The body has been reconstructed after Jean (Ettore's son) Bugatti's design for the body of the 'Atlantic'.
Today, the asking price for a Bugatti can go up to €850.000 (depending on the model).
60 years ago, in France, you could buy a vintage Bugatti for the price of the same weight of scrap iron! |

those cars are beautiful. Beautiful.
There's some real engineering and design genius in them.
Not to mention: patience and love in restoring them.

I couldn't overcome a k2600, let alone a k2.
About the Buggatis I said above.
As for the supermodel threesome...
... come on, what's the internet for otherwise? |

Btw, as to models, I prefer real women with real curves over skinny bony coat-hangers. |

Don't disregard American engineering...

Korg is STILL giving those out to employees and preferred vendors?
I guess that's cool.
Here's what I did to mine after last year's NAMM:
