Poly Evolver keyboard, KORG Radias. KURZWEIL K2600S, NORD-MODULAR, KORG D3200, DOEPFER MAQ 16/3 and a bunch of pedals...It's all gone, so now I'm starting over, but with virtual synths.

Soundconstruction going on...

I am happy to say the Blofeld is awesome ... it loses some microQ features, but gains a bunch tricks of it's own and a way better user interface that lets you get far more out of this wonderful engine, 'cos programming it is now a lot more pleasant. Very cool indeed !

What sort of aftershave do you use Daz?

A girl who gives presents starting with Blo is fundamentally sound
Now if I can only get my wife to give me a Blofeld! Wait, are we talking about synths???
And all this time it felt stuffy in here, had I known.
Wasn't he(Blofeld)James Bond's nemesis also?

I'm sure you're enjoying the new bed...er,...keybed.
Congrats to finding someone that is interested enough in what you do that she would help further your cause by surprising(?) you with that purchase! I'd think you'd be blown away so to speak.

I concur, let's hear some sounds. It's okay to blow ones horn...well, you know what I mean.

Wow, lucky you. Does she have a sister? :) I bet many guys would like to have a girlfriend who gets them such a present. I would even consider to order flowers for my girlfriend if she got me a Waldorf Blofeld and I'm not the romantic type. 8)

Great present Daz and a belated happy birthday. Been looking at this since reading the posts here and have to say I am very tempted. Could be my next purchase... unless I can find a half reasonable priced moss for my Extreme :-(... not had GAS in ages!

Keep the comments coming about this machine!

Apologies for my absence from the forum for so long, I have had quite different priorities recently but I am glad to say I am starting to find time to make music again... Bring it on!

Best wishes and regards to all,

Steve
