RE: [AN1x] mks?

2012-01-18 by Ed Edwards

Jimbo,
 
MKS was the Roland prefix for all of their rack units in the 80s.  There were about 8 or so iterations – all mostly digitally controlled analog and racks of their keyboards.  Except the one that was a multi timbral unit (MKS-7).  I have an MKS-50, a rack Alpha Juno… highly recommended.  The MKS-80 the others referred to was the flagship and pulls down HUGE money due mostly to its reputation.
 
Here’s a lovely and descriptive site: http://analoghell.com/studio/mks/

I've been using some of the list's store of presets--I think the English patches--and found a group called MKS that are very nice. What synth does that refer to?

I also tried some sounds through my old Fender tube amp and a 15 inch speaker. My wife threatened to divorce me. Marvelous wall shaking sound.
