SYNTHY KEYS SYNTHY STUFF

Post by behndy »

urm. so...... what should i look for for my drummer? he's wanting to try to play keys. i got a line on an Alesis QS6.1 on my local CL. he mostly wants to try to do keyboard piano parts. it's going for $200.

's good?

found a M-Audio Venom for me to play around with too.... i like the idea of soft synth laptop stuff.... but it's just such a bitch to deal with. hardware synths are so much more convenient. i wanna try that way for a hinute.

murrrr? MURRRR.

.................... murrrrr.

hurm. that DOES look neat..... but i'm trying to keep this mad simple. he's already got a sampler drum trigger thing.... gonna do a mini board with a micro amp, 4 channel mixer so it's a single out to a pa cab we drag along..... but i don't really want to get into rack stuff. an all in one keyboard synth that has some decent piano'y tones would be perfect i think.

and butt CHEAP. is the QS6 booty? it's actually $150 he's asking. OOPSIES.

I got a QS6 for $150 and like it a lot. I don't really futz with all the neat stuffs it can do, but I like a lot of the sounds in thar and it works fine as a midi controller.

:edit: The piano patches there are pretty decent!
