Buttons mapped as keys. Works for me. Not fancy. Can do Flock of Seaguls style leads. 'nuff said.

What are you running this with? I'm too much of a tard to work out how to get it to run with reason or FL studio without lots of lag. Sequencers and MIDI make my brain hurt.

Sounds like a different thread to me. Why not start it?

...And? Any fun stuff to report yet?

I finally received mine today. I must have watched this video a hundred times while I was waiting.

I must now immediately acquire some sort of looper or something. Running it through some effects earlier this evening was absolutely heavenly.

I also have an Alesis Micron (which I adore) and a Yamaha PSS-130.

Worst photo ever of my Little Phatty. Still paying it off.

Me too!
More synths need built in calculator functionality!

For such a cheap unit, it's got some really nice features with the ADSR and sequencer in particular... though programming the ADSR could be a bit of a pain. I found a website a bit ago with some ADSR settings and other goodies for the VL-1, but it seems to be gone now :/

I think I may have it saved somewhere. I also have the manual in a PDF. let me look for it.

I have one of those pss130 yamaha kids keyboards. They sound great.

I circuit bent it so now it may sound greater, depending on your tastes.

I also own a:

I also have one of these:

but don't let the size fool you, it is actually smaller than the rest.

and about a zillion toy kids keyboards.

Used to have this but sold it.

WLM HIT

Sounded very close to a Hammond T series, only way more transportable.

Casio AP-24 - The elephant in the living room.

Yamaha PSS-480 Portasound - My first instrument. Age 4 (picture not mine but I did the same thing with the letters on the keys)

Yamaha MO6 - The studio machine. I love this thing.

Yamaha YC-30 Combo Organ. Picked up for way under market value at a yard sale. Weighs a ton but is usually well worth lugging to gigs.

Korg Microkorg - Like a korg, only much smaller. With all the other keyboards I have this still gets great sounds I can't imitate. Not as gimicky as I first thought.

Software Tookworks Miracle Piano Teaching System Keyboard - I just picked this up for $25 from goodwill. Came with a pretty awesome white keyboard stand. If I had the right cable, I could hook this up to my Nintendo/Genesis/Super Nintendo and learn how to actually play piano.

Schylling mini piano - $10 find at a toy store. It's slightly out of key (I bought one for my baby nephew that is pitch correct though, wtf). I used it on my 90's compilation submission this year.

Crappy electric reed organ I bought on ebay. I thought it could be an electric replacement for my melodica, boy was I wrong. The fan is louder than the organ and the upper keys take seconds for the fan to blow the reeds. I think I may try to modify this someday with a quieter and more powerful fan.

It looks like my image linking didn't work.

The images that didn't appear were a toy piano (the fancy grand piano shaped one) and a Yamaha CP70 portable grand piano.

I went on a piano kick a while back, obviously.

they worked for me (hence my quoting them).

Novation K-Station - great synth if you're into tweaking (& can get past the horrible presets!

Yamaha P-85, which is my girlfriend's, but all of our music stuff occupies the same space in our flat, so I've found myself using it a lot when I need straightforward piano sounds
