Id say no just because we are low traffic enough that we could be overwhelmed by retro game people. There are only like a million retro game forums.

If you want to throw some games in with the music stuff then maybe! Otherwise Id suggest keeping it music centric around here.

I was gonna say it seems fine precisely because we're so low-traffic. I doubt we're gonna attract much attention from straight-up gamers (as you say, there are plenty of places for them to gather already), and meanwhile, it's always nice to share stuff between folks of mutual interests.

Sorry, I want a x0xb0x but I want to do it myself. Unless you've got a MOTU 828mkii or similar, not interested in trade at the moment.

Kurzweil K2000RS. Maybe not something this forum is interested in, but if you have a thing for hyper-complex 90s digital synths, this is *the* thing to have. It does FM, subtractive, additive I think, sampling (with a solid library of samples built-in), sequencing and probably a few other types of synthesis that I forgot. A couple minor cosmetic issues. One output (out of like eight or ten) is a little lower than the others, but this might also just be some setting I never got to (I barely used it or explored the menus, and I never factory reset it from the state I got it in). $250 obo

SOLDCasio CZ-101. You know it, you love it. Technically not a chiptune synth, but in the same ballpark. $150 obo

SOLDSelling my beloved sammichSID, with no SIDs included. This has been my favorite synth since the day I built it, but as I just completed my MB-6582, it's time to let the little guy go. It was my first DIY, so some of the soldering isn't the prettiest, but it worked the very first time I turned it on and hasn't given me even a hiccup in the four or five years since. Just to be clear, again, there are no SIDs included. The sammichSID can take up to two SIDs (currently set up for two 8580/6582, but it can be set for use with 6581s as well), but I have none to offer. I can give you my best leads on where to find them, though, just ask (and stay away from eBay). Other than just popping new SID chips in, everything is working and included (power supply too). It turns on and runs just fine without the SIDs (as shown) but it won't make sound till you put them in.. $400obo

Well, the ER-1 is definitely not an analog drum machine. But otherwise these are awesome buys.

If they were claiming it was NOS, there's a really good chance it was fake anyway. My bet is that you dodged a bullet.

The 8580 is absolutely great, the only choice if you're using your SID as more of a synth than a C64 emulator, IMHO.

My favorite part of having two SIDs (I have a sammichSID) is simply running them in stereo. The nature of the SID, that they all sound a little different, makes for a great, super wide sound.

TherapSID is the best thing out there for your stated purpose.

Hey, looking for an FB-01. I know there's a few for sale here already, but they're either US only or seemingly not responding to PMs.

I'm in Toronto ON. Let me know if you got what I need. Thanks.

Still hoping to hear back...

Did you get my PM re: FB-01s?
