Yeah, I feel the same. For example, I have a Yamaha An1x which does a
lot of the old-style sounds, but there's so much missing.

I need to get some new measuring equipment. My old analog multi-meter
is shot, my DMM is a toy (one of those chinese things for a few
euro), and my scope broke more than 10 years ago. Maybe I'll have a
look at a local dump-store (http://www.baco-army-goods.nl/ for the
dutchies). They sometimes have old Tek scopes in stock. On the other
hand, those new portable Tek scopes are really nice (and expensive).
