I've been in their site a couple weeks ago (I think I lost the

That's a nice point of view, but I can't overload this friend, he's coming
to enjoy his vacations. He lives in US since 1970. Now he's an American
citzen and for the Brazilian law he can bring w/ him anything but used cars,
but two synths should be to heavy to be accomodated w/ his luggage. But I'll
try to figura a way out, or at least be patient enough to wait one more year
to get more stuff.

Definitively..:-(

You're right. It's hard to find the gear you want here in Brazil (there's
only one polyphonic VA in the market...guess?.....That's right! JP8K..:-)
and when you find it's too expensive (remember that I paid $1.100 for the
last AN1x here). So I have to buy it in US and wait for that guy, any other
way would be too danm expensive...:-(
Oh! I forgot I can buy a Korg Trinity, but you can imagine the price! Or
even a EA-1, but I prefer to spend the money (about $700) to get a better
synth in US..:-)

Cheers,
PinheadX.

PS: I'm going to take a look at Rogue Music's site....pray for me..:-)
