Wavestation or JD990... both good synths with a lot of psy potential. The others are toys in comparison (but both still have their uses for 'straight' sounds)... the M1 is well old now though. |

If they're very very cheap, why not get both? They're both very different-sounding synths and I would imagine they'd complement each other very well. |

hehe now is part 2 of the explanation.....
the flyer says down from 7500 Nis, which i simply do not trust.......
they are selling them for the 900 NIS, but I am not sure about original price..... where could i check this?
Do you think that this is good as the only synth i use? it seems sort of old???
I want the keyboard version and not the rack mount. |

Wavestation: Ebay price = 120 GBP = 1016 NIS.
900 NIS is a good price.
The only JD990 I could find was 650USD = 2910 NIS.
I'd go for the JD990 as it's a pretty good synth for the money... really quite analogue. |

As for the D70 76-note synth (roland) what do you think of that one? I can get it for 600 NIS
(how is it as synth/controller)
maybe i can hook it up to the JD990???
is it possible to hook up the synth model to the controler, and hook up the same controller to the softsynth? or is only possilbe to have seperate controllers
Also, i can get the Juno 106 Synth for cheap.......... what about htat......
that about sums up my options  |

The JD990 is an enhanced rack-version of the JD800 - so i'd definately go for the JD990.
There should be no problems in using the D70 as controller for the JD990.
