my first analog synth
 

I'm finally the proud owner of an analog synth ( so stoked I had to write up a topic on here )
I scored an Akai AX-73 off of somebody for $200, not too shabby. I was originally bidding on a AX-60 when someone offered up the 73.
Neither of these synths are comparable to a Jupiter 8 but they sound fairly decent, you never really hear about them either, at least I have'nt seen them mentioned on this forum.
My KC has to work pretty hard to match that warmth and depth, albeit it does a good job and I'm comparing night\day ........... but you get me what I'm saying.
The one thing I dont care for is the lack of sliders and knobs, everything is accessed via the bank buttons. anyway, it seems to be somewhat underated yet very capable.
I advise anybody on a limited budget that wants that analog fatness to check out a 60, 73 or 80. :idea:

I've always wondered what these things sound like. You never hear of them really.

Feel free to post a few samples of it if you get a chance. :D

will do
