Danny I hear you re the i30. I have kept my is35, which is basically the same thing with a lighter plastic case and no touch-screen. i don't use it on gigs any more, because i prefer
the keybed, most sounds, and 76 keys on my Roland E60. but the styles and rhythms are far
better on the Korg is-35, and there is no comparison re the OS..the Korg is hands-down better OS playing live in every conceivable way.

My first B-3, a Wirlitzer, one of my Clavinovas, a 122 Leslie, my first Rhodes, a little Rhodes finger bass unit....I hate to get rid of ANYTYHING music related!

Hello MC,

I have the Ketron X1 with hard drive for sale if you are interested.

Hi,
only one I truly regret selling is the KN7000. I've had well over a dozen.

best wishes
Rikki

I miss my Yamaha CS60, my ESQ1's (had two), my ARP Odyssey, my Oberheim Xpander, my B3 and Vox organs (much got left in England when I emigrated), Wasp, even my two Mirage's (you needed two when all they had was 128kb RAM!), but the only arranger I now regret selling is my G1000, because of the damn Chord Sequencer..!

But I'm a packrat, I still have my old DX7, Ensoniq SQ2, original Korg CX3, in cases untouched for years. And most of what I no longer have was never sold, just given away when I moved on... I suppose I could always ask for them back!

One classic I'll NEVER sell is my K2500, fully loaded. Still the heart of my studio, along with the G70 (well, both G70's!). Even I'm not that stupid!

I don't miss any arrangers I had in the past, as the new ones are generally superior to the old...plus, nowadays, a mid-range arranger can do far more than a TOTL of only a few years ago.

Keyboards I would regret selling?

Perhaps my old B-3 and two 147RV Leslies...I sold my Roland Jupiter 8 several years ago, but was luckily able to buy it back in the same pristine condition...it even had the same patches I put in the memory banks.

All the other sounds I may use like Wurly, Rhodes, and DX-7 type sounds (and even a couple of great B-3 sims) are already on my Yamaha arranger and realistic enough to preclude going back to vintage gear and it's upkeep and maintenance.

My biggest regret was not a keyboard but a synth my Roland XP 60.

Why isn't an XP60 a keyboard? As long as they have keys, ALL instruments are keyboards... synths, organs, pianos, arrangers, WS's, even keytars...!

Maybe accordion is the only exception, one doesn't often refer to that as a 'keyboard', even though it has one

I mean arranger

I hear you Tim ... that's why I never got rid of my kn 6000 ...



me too, Russ ... that's why I still have my accordions, my Cordovox, my Rhodes, my kn 1000, and OF COURSE, my kn 6000 ...
