Re: [yamahacs80] CS80: Superstar

2006-04-07 by Tim Siefkes

David,

No, I totally missed out on that, but I'd be curious to know who that 
was. Arp 2600s? I did a lot of music on them myself when I was at the 
Berklee music school in the late 70's. The synth lab there was (4) 
2600's, the monster 2500 in a room by itself, and a slew of Odysseys for 
workstations. How things have changed... They were fun instruments to 
work on, but I was never especially knocked out by the overall sound of 
the Arps.  A little thin-sounding to my ears, although I owned an 
Odyssey here myself. (Still have it, though it doesn't play anymore).
