The bass sounds were nice, but not that much nicer than a Juno-60, and everything else about it was unexciting to me. And somebody wanted to give me $8500 for it, and that sounded nice. Don't get a Jupiter-8. > OB-X This one's on my own dream list. I'm pretty sure you won't regret it. I have an OB-8 with the Jurgen Haible square wave mod and Encore midi now, and using it just makes me dream of an OB-X. (I think I'd still keep my OB-8 though even if I got one.) > Memorymoog I keep thinking the Memorymoog ought to sound like so much more than it sounds like in demos. I've never had the chance to play one, but in demos, it just sounds like Moog screwed up so bad using Curtis oscillators. The filters ought to compensate for that somewhat, but they don't. > Prophet 5 Funny you mention this one... I've never had a Pro-One, but I think I might get one sometime this year.
