Being a moderator I guess I can allow some trailing off-topic as long as we
stay vintage and more or less analogue... ;)

I have in fact two bands. one is a solo project and that's the one soon
listenable on a 7", 33 rpm vinyl. No Simmons gear on it but pure analogue
synths from start to end. Drum section played by Pro-One, MS-10, EDP Wasp
and the likes...
My other band is a duo and the plan is to release an EP there soon too. To
bad the other half is my wife and that we have two small kids taking their
time (one of them biting my big toe as we speak (write)).
The first is electro and minimal electronics in the vein of Telex and the
Normal while the other is folk-synthpop-Tolkien-electronics. ;)

I certainly do. :) I even own the cool blue bad to carry the brain in (with
logo on front) and original stands for both brain and pads. The syncussion
is one of the coolest synth drum brains out there with weird combined
waveforms and with a little tricks done you can even play melodies by using
the pedal input for CV-signals. It certainly can cut a mix and it sure can
shake those bass membranes in the speakers. Useful little box!

I'm trying not just to collect but you use. So I sell what I don't "need".
Anyone fancy a Tama TS-305 or czechoslovakian SEAK ADM-5? ;)
electronically yours, jesper
