The laboratory: Aye Sound Studio

 Here is a full list of the gear used during all these years
 
 

Roland JD-800 Love at first sight. Monster of a synth.
Roland GR-700 Guitar synth. Acceptable tracking but no pitch bend transmit. Best ever Roland filter.
Korg T3 Ex Great as master. Good general sound but poor filter.
Korg Polisix An old beloved.
Oberheim Cyclone Great arpeggiator-phrase sequencer.
Emu Proteus 2 A full symphonic orchestra.
Casio VZ-8M Demonstrates that digital doesn't means cold.
Roland D-110 Basic all purpose synthesizer. 
Waldorf Pulse Best analogue mono ever.
Korg Prophecy More that virtual. A synth that sings.
Yamaha DX-7 II FD Some day Beauty, now Beast. Somebody doesn't understands that it is sound the only important thing in a synth.
Korg MS-20 My first synth. Still great!
Korg Wavestation EX Great for pads.
Akai XR-10 Good sounds and some kind of processing. Ugly MIDI implementation and useless separated FX output.
Yamaha RX-15 Well, it was. Never miss it.
Yamaha CX-5M II Not what I was expecting from computers.
Atari 1040 ST FM Great for sequencing.
Roland D-20 I loved it.
Emu Emax A nightmare. Can't forget the noise made by his HD.
Framus Jazz Bass Converted in fretless.
Ibanez PL-5050 My actual bass guitar.
Jackson JPB-9 It will be a fretless.
Casio MG-510 Very close to Strato with a good MIDI pick-up.
Roland G-707 An Space Era guitar.
Hughes & Kettner Metal Master Real tubes.
Fostex D-80 What you put in is what you get out.
Tascam M-2524 mixer Would not change unless you give me a Neve.
Zoom 9010 The MultiFX.
Behringer Virtualizer Great chambers and echoes.
Behringer Ultrafex Good sounding cheap enhacer.
Behringer Ultrapatch As all other Behringers much for the money.
Behringer Composer Useful.
Roland A-880 MIDI switcher/mixer I hate investing in something that doesn't sound.
Sony DTC-790 DAT Do you find any sonic difference with the high range?
AWE 64 Gold sound card As I don't like a lot samplers (yes, it's true), this is there if I need it.
Denon DRM-400 No problems for eight years.
Philips CD830 Best CD ever made.
Akai AM-A535 If I had enough money...
Vieta PR-30 speakers Need replace.
Korg CA-10 tuner It does what is supposed to.
Sabine ST-1000 tuner Great till it refused to work
Roland MPU-IPC Best MIDI interface ever.
Two Chinese Peacocks Trying to find some use
Scottish Bagpipe An useful souvenir from my trip to Scotland
And of course a PC Necessary.
