Roland released a sampled version of JD-990 called "Anthology 1993". It covers all the factory presets and might fit the bill for folks not planning on tweaking/programming they own. There's an excellent free synth called PG-8X that does a good job of emulating the Roland JX-8P. Stack two of them together and we have a decent approximation of the MKS-70. -

Sort of. Korg MS-20, which is a patchbay synth. Well, maybe that doesn't count, but it's somewhat closer. I really don't have much of an idea of what to do regarding modular synthesis, to be perfectly up front. I keep forgetting some of the very basic principles and such, but obviously, I don't have any issues replicating a lot of the sounds or making weird sounds nonetheless!! -

Agree. I know two friends who were associated with the "greatest rock and roll band in the world." One had the gig in the late 80's and the other was on the short list but didn't get it in the 90's. For the 90's gig, the pay offered was salary....10k per week, gig or not. 4 star hotels, private jet. no buses at all. -
Just found this comment... where have you (or anyone) found a well-maintained vintage Rhodes for free? Sounds like a unicorn to me...

I remember seeing the ads in Keyboard and a picture of the Odyssey on the Musicians Friend catalog. I really wanted one but ended up with the MiniMoog because it was available. In the late 70's you didn't have a lot of choices in a small rural town. Was very interested when this came out but reviews of the horrible touch pads scared me away. Wish it had more jacks for interfacing with the Behringer 2600. Still, maybe someday. Wonder how it compares to the Korg version? -
Carlo, you make that Oddy sound fabulous! I have a black-face Oddy and Axxe in my garage, have had both since the '80's, and both need new sliders, probably new caps, and a ton of cleaning. But hearing you play it made me feel nostalgic for that sound! Given the price of the Behringer, it'll probably be cheaper to just buy a new one than to fix mine. -

OT - just a comment on the original white face Oddy - I modified mine so I had an octave up/down switch. Also changed the pitch knob to one which had a notch sticking out so that I could curl my little finger round it and be confident that I could return it to the neutral position. And I managed to rewire the modulation slider on the first oscillator so that the second oscillator modulated too. It was all very ambitious of me, with not much real understanding of what I was doing, but it worked nicely. i hung onto it for years, only selling it off about 10 years ago. Nowadays I occasionally use the app on the iPad. It’s close enough for me.
