Sell 2 of your synths that have keyboards with more than 39 keys. You don’t use them (be honest, we’ve all fallen victim to our own GAS) and you could use the money and space.
Specifically, sell them to me for a very good deal.
Hahaha, I’ve definitely been considering paring down a bit only because it’s a lot to keep track of at once, but I only have two synths with keyboards RN the Yamaha SY-77 and Novation BassStation 2, the rest are all desktop or rack modules. I’d love to have some more older keyboards like a Jupiter or Juno or Prophet but the price and upkeep and all that is getting a bit much.
I put a hard stop on buying synths with keyboards after I got a 61 key controller. Then I found a Grandmother for $600, so now I just look at Eurorack stuff that I can’t afford as I feed LFOs and envelopes into it from my Hydrasynth.
Good deal, Grandmothers have such a lovely sound (lol). The only Moog I ever had as a Labyrinth and that was fun, had to let it go but would pick up another at some point. Yeah I’m not exactly Keith Emerson so I don’t need a lot of keyboards either, I would like to have a nice analog polysynth keyboard though, that is the one thing I’m currently missing but I’ll probably go with a module again.
Have you considered the Dreadbox Nymphes? I don’t have one, but it’s on my list because it hits the Juno60/106 target very well while also being more flexible in terms of sound design. BYOKB, but I can see one of them sitting very well next to a digital workhorse like a Blofeld or MS2000R in a setup for when you need that analog feeling.
Yep and I really like Dreadbox as a company, they do their own thing they’re pretty underrated sound wise as well, I have an Erebus 3 and like it a lot my only problem with the Nymphes was the reported USB noise which I guess is okay if you power it normally, I would just prefer not to have USB powered synths. It is lovely sounding though, I was looking at the newer one, the Artemis as a possibility, or maybe an Oberheim TEO-5 or new Sequential Forum, or a Polyvera haha. Lots of choices now. I miss my Blofeld too, I sold it after I got the Virus TI because of overlap but it really has a great sound.
