    You havn‘t wasted my time at all 😀 I like your „rundowns“. I don’t regret most of the gear I sold but one: A Roland TB-303. When this machine was hyped in the early 90s I fully missed the trend and sold it for peanuts together with a TR-606 😅

    Loved this episode as I have many keys I wish I had back. You also brought back fond memories. I too spent many hours in Ace in Miami , mostly in the 90's. Bought my Korg X3 there (which I am happy to say I still have) along with my first DAW, Cakewalk Pro Audio. Thanks for the great channel.

    The Stylophone was my first 'synth'. I wired it into a suitcase with a home-built phaser, a home-built ring modulator (with its own oscillator) and an octave divider. It sounded great for the small me. 🙂

    I bought a Fizmo from Musician's Friend way back in the late 90s when they were on clearance (i think it was around $300, I can't remember exactly). I sold it around 2003-04, for about $500 and I thought I did really well. I don't miss it, but I certainly regret it now based on what they currently sell for.

    I found 2 floor 19” rack wedges for 50 bucks on offer up once. Upon closer inspection of the posts photo I noticed they were full of rack gear, i scroll over to the next photo and one of the rack units says Emax.
    My blood ran cold and I immediately called the guy to see if I could pick up that same night. He says sure I’m just getting off work, mind you it was around 9pm. Which I would not advise but I took the chance. So I get there and the guy is chuckling about the floppy disk drive on one of the units. Upon pickup I also noticed a few other units inside along with some rack plate covers. I get home to unload and see what I got. It tuned out to be a Emax hd rack, Yamaha tx802, korg tuner, and something called a lone wolf midi switcher. I sold the wedges which was ok cause they were really big and I’m sad to say that I sold the emax rack too. I still think about sampling stuff onto it. But I could never get the right boot disk to get it going it didn’t have a scratch on it. I put it on eBay… it didn’t last 30min😅

    In 1993, I sold my Casio CT-650 to buy my first "real professional instrument" synthesizer Roland JV-30 (yes, I know, ROMpler and so on ;-) ). Seller's remorse because of young me not realizing the difference between keyboard and synthesizer "why is there no auto accompaniment in this expensive JV-30, I want my band-in-a-box back" 🤣 (for me, it was expensive at the time) I got over not having cheesy auto-chord-recognition-band and I still have my JV-30 🤩

    Man I can so so relate. My big one was a Moog 1c. Biggest regret ever. Next would be Yamaha FS1R.
    And third isn’t a synth but from the 90s Oberheim Echoplex Digital Pro.
    But yeah I also learned synthesis on a concertmate MG1 went through 2 of those. Also had a Vox Jaguar I loved.
    Agree totally with you re: MicroQ I loved that thing.

    An original Moog Prodigy I had restored from being one twitch of the foot from landfill by the previous owner in 2002 (received with a bad transformer, bad VCA, no knobs) ..sold circa 2006 for £500, sounded amazing but thought 'eh, no midi' ..and good lord, what those go for now, and they sound spot on (breaks the soldering iron out, and makes one ;).

    Didn't know I'd be getting back into music a few decades later (namely, recording synthwave now) after selling my gear during the mid & late 80s. Regrets now? YES! #1: late 70s Roland SH-7 (she was mint and sounded amazing!). #2: Memorymoog. #3: Roland Jupiter-6. #4: Roland Juno-6. And #5: Akai AX-60... Among others :(

    There were a few instances where I regretted turning loose of keyboards, synthesizers and other equipment. In 2001, one of my band leaders sold me her Wurlitzer 200A electric piano. I want of selling it to an old friend before I finished paying for it, and I immediately was sorry for having done it. My mother threw away my Rockman X100 headphone amp without my knowledge. Around the same time, I ended up selling my Yamaha CP70 electric grand piano and Roland JX-10 synth. I accidentally damaged the piano’s sustain system and was doubtful I could have it (or whatever was generating white noise in the outputs) repaired. The JX-10 was sold because it was taking up room (the consolation is that I purchased the MKS-70 so I could have the Super JX engine again). That was all circa 2013. Lastly, I had traded my first guitar amp for my friend’s Korg 05rw module in 2005. Ten years later, he just asked for it back, and I didn’t bother fighting him. Though I get most of the sounds I generated from it out of my Roland VR-09, I still miss the module.

    The synths I have today have lots of knobs. In the 80's I had some good sounds, but the interfaces hindered my enjoyment. I regretted selling the Yamaha RX5, so I bought a Yamaha RX7 off of Ebay for $120. I use it when practicing bass guitar or guitar, but when it comes time to make music I prefer the Roland TR-8S.

    The only way that the photo at 4:55 could be more eighties is if you added a saxophone. And maybe some neon light blue and hot pink.
    The only piece of gear I've ever sold was a Roland JD-990, and it was only ever purchased in order to make a profit. Had it been a 220/240 volts unit instead of a 120 volts one, I might have kept it. But if I'll ever purchase another (Roland) S&S module, it's going to be an Integra 7.
    Well, there was one other piece of gear I sold: a Yamaha EX5R. But I did so in order to be able to afford a silver EX5.

    I had an Ensoniq Mirage I sold but I have never regretted it. I used the money to partly pay for a fully decked out Ensoniq EPS, Mem Expander, Scsi, 8x output expander. I could write entire songs in the EPS and with a sync drum machine, have the recording studio record the entire bed of tracks to independent channels in one shot. I still own it. From what I have seen for sale, this EPS is a very rare bird.

    I should have held onto my Akai mpcs and picked up a couple more; I originally started producing hiphop music, sampling, etc. and I'm now into synths, analog and vintage. I've got that ground covered with some newer stuff but something about those older MPCs that feel and sound right to me when laying down drums. There is probably a nostalgic aspect to it too

    Ensoniq ESQ-1. I bought it second hand in 1990 used it right through the 90s in a covers band for sequencing and sound and sold it around 2007. I missed it so much I recently bought another one (which I won't be selling).
    Also, my Dad got me a Casio Vl-1 new in the very early 80s. Somewhere along the way I lost it. so I recently bought another one of them! My takeaway from this is NEVER SELL STUFF!

    Mostly I have Not Buyers remorse, for things I could have bought cheap, but passed up. Where I grew up, by the time I had my first job there were cheap synths available near me: Minimoog, TR-808, Juno 6, Jupiter 4, Korg Polysix. I spent some on synths, guitars and hi-fi. Wish I'd spent it all on instruments, not on hi-fi. But, of the instruments I did buy cheap then I regret selling: Fender Stratocaster (MIJ '69 reissue burst), Roland SH-101, JX-8P. After university, I regret selling Moog Voyager, DSI MEK, DSI Prophet'08, Waldorf XTK, Roland JX-3P, Chroma Polaris, MFB Tanzbar, Machinedrum UW, JoMoX xBase 09. I have a good studio now, but when I read that list, that also would be a great studio to have and many of those items sell for 3x what I sold them for now.

    Never change the way you pronounce Moo-g. It's the correct way, I don't care what Dr.Bob thought, and it's refreshing to hear an American say it right. Names got changed during the last 150 years of migration but it doesn't mean the original way is wrong. In America some Kavanagh(Cav-an-ah)folk became Kavanaugh(Cav-an-awh) but you'd be hard pressed to find a Kavanaugh in Ireland. Liam and Noel Gallagher from Oasis say their own name wrong(it's Galla-her not Galla-ger, the G is silent) and in Australia they pronounce my own name Sheehy(She-he) as "Shee". If an Australian with my name introduced themselves to me as 'Shee' there'd be a ruckus! Anyways, purely for your perseverance of pronouncing Moog correctly in the face of constant whining from the ill informed, you got yourself a sub!
