just made myself an a/b box yesterday so i can run both my guiar and casio sk-1 through my board for loopz. the "brass ensemble" sound on that keyboard is one of the greatest sounding bank tones i've heard on a toy piano.

also all hail shoenhut toy pianos. every studio needs one.

I had a teacher back in primary school that made us to church singing and used to drive the melody with that exact type of melodica. One day her false teeth fell out while she was playing it, and now every time I hear that New Order track with the melodica on it I double over laughing.

I think I might like that version better than the original (which I do love)

Oblivians rule the roost for sure. That solo toy piano version is pretty fantastic.

Also, that Schoenhut stuff looks awesome!
