This is definitely a keeper Good... never knew that I'd turn into a synth geek. And to think that only about 3 short years ago I didn't know the difference between keyboard and synth and thought that Monitors meant "computer monitors" - e.g. CRT.

Ok, here's a freaky one:

My house number is 808.... When realtor showed us the house I knew this one was a winner, simply on a number alone.

My wife's car license plate (standard issue) has 808 IN IT AS WELL!

So, let me add a few of my own lines:

1. You hang around local music stores in hopes of finding a bargain... but...

2. Never buy it without consulting e-bay first

3. Sales people in your local music store offer you a job or... Get pissed off when you cut them off in the middle of sales pitch and

4. ...say "Sorry, I couldn't help overhearing but...." and proceed to reduce sales guy's credibility towards 0dB

5. You are faced with tough choices all the time: "Gas bill or new compressor", "mortgage payment or new synth", "food or insulated patch cables"

6. You write lengthy reviews of all the gear you ever touched, even if you just used it for 5 minutes while assisting with item 4 above.

7. Most of your cell phone ring tones have been composed by you

8. You have dreams of the gear you desire

9. You marvel when you find out that your favorite 70's/80's track was written without the help of sequencer...

10. You never use built-in sequencers in hardware synths, yet you get upset when your new synth doesn't have it (you never know when you might need it)

11. You blow up when people don't understand that you do not send sounds over MIDI

12. When someone mentions "monitor" you automatically think of the "speaker"

13. You have 1000's of old and crappy CD's piled up in your studio with hope of sampling them one day for something useful...

14. You don't consider yourself a geek


Ok, I'm all out of ideas for now.

Very nice. =D How about.. you look up which place has the area code of 303 and you move to that place, just so that your phone number begins with "303."

Here's a few i think I should add.


1. You hear an analog sound and you consider it sexy.

2. you've given names to your synths other than the manufactured names.

3. When you get a sexy 303 line going(see #1) you coment out loud, even though nobody else is in the room.

4. You think you are a genious casue you know subtractive synthesis and nobody else you know does.

5. You hear an 80's tune and try to guess what synth was used in the main lead. Then you actualy research it to see if your right!

6. You think that one day your synthesis knowledge will become usefull in the office or at school.

7. You just love the way all the different colour synths look in your studio and get pissed off when a manufacturer makes a black only coloured synth.

Done it! Take it a step further: ".. and then try to find it and buy it. It actually turns into an obsession with no resources spared."

A day doesn't pass when I don't think about it! LOL

Hey, My Virus KC looks mighty mean in that black only color, I actually like it that way! Tho, I'd kill for electric blue virus. Hmm... now that sounds like a next item:


8. You take your synth apart to paint it the color you want!

9. ... Now, that sounds like a project... If I could only find out how I can get the decals for the synth.... I'll check into it.

I know a guy who repainted his Waldorf Pulse + and slammed on decals...it looked mean in silver. The only bitch is taking it apart...i don't recamend doing that to a virus...it's very complicated ...well probably...al my other KB synths are a bitch to take aprt.

Originally posted by NeoPhono I'm not sure about the modular synth part, but this one drives me nuts. I always seem to be inspired by going out, and I have the urge to rush home and try something that I've either heard or thought of while at the disco. I know it drives my girlfriend crazy that I'm constantly scribbling ideas on napkins while we're out at clubs.

If you really want to piss off the girlfriend, get sequencing software for your pocket pc, put on the headphones, and play with new ideas... while you're at the club of course.

me and Sgt. Foo = synth addicts.. and there is no rehab
a clip from an MSN convo:

alanzo says:
i've never even touched a real synth
alanzo says:
i'm a *looks around* hardware synth virgin
alanzo says:
i hope my first one will be.. gentle
SgtFoo//Aren says:
you'll be fingering and doing her all day and all nite.... it'll become a very physical relationship
alanzo says:
she'll squeel like mad when I fiddle with her knobs
