Hi all,
I'm getting a bit sick of my softsynths, and the bloody latency that means I have to drag everything I play back a few ms to make it sync up.
I was thinking of getting a synth, that had a shedload of features (arpeggiator, simple sequencing, lots of hands-on control of parameters) and that sounded wicked. I really like analog-style burbling, wailing, stabbing, everything that sounds proper "synthy".
I've heard the Roland JP8000 a little bit, and had the MS2000 recommended to me when I was considering a MicroKorg, but the MicroKorg is apparently fiddly to edit and quite expensive for what it is. I think I can get a second hand JP8000 or MS2000 for just a little bit more, and they've got full-sized keys.
Basically, I'm a guitarist with a home studio so it has to be pretty accessible! Would appreciate any help or comments...
