Justin Havu Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 I'll start with this one. I found a Hammond L111 at the Salvation Army for $49. I had the money, but no way to get it home, as I can't drive. This past Monday, I was surprised by a younger couple from church, with this beautiful L111 in the back of his truck. He said that on Mondays, furniture was 50% off, so it was only around $25. It's in great shape, sounds great, now I just need a Leslie, and a connection kit for it! http://i88.photobucket.com/albums/k193/justinhavu/IMG_20151221_1746192.jpg Hardware Yamaha MODX7, DX7, PSR-530, MX61/Korg TR-Rack, 01/W Pro X, Trinity Pro X, Karma/Ensoniq ESQ-1 Behringer DeepMind12, Model D, Odyssey, 2600/Arturia Keylab MKII 61 Software Studio One/V Collection 9/Korg Collection 4/Cherry Audio/UVI SonicPass/EW Composer Cloud/Omnisphere, Stylus RMX, Trilian/IK Total Studio 3.5 MAX/Roland Cloud Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WesG Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 Justin -- right on! A perfect starter Hammond. Please replace the run motor capacitor if it is original. These can explode at their age if you are unlucky. And they are made with PCBs...

Doerfler Posted December 25, 2015 Share Posted December 25, 2015 My highlight is a Zoom H5. Those look very nice, Eric. I just got a H1 for cheap. Use them at work but never tried one yet at home. Time will tell. Anyway, I'm excited about this. Didn't expect it before Christmas but Chris Carroll surprised me. It's a drop in replacement pre amp for my E7 with 3 band EQ and selectable auto wah. Won't get a chance to install it until Monday though. http://imagizer.imageshack.us/v2/800x600q90/903/F2KcL2.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

High Diving Act Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Thanks Dave!.. Ya Elmer.. I've had it since Monday.. didn't get much sleep Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday (lol). It's replacing my Jupiter 50 as my top tier. I spent those days programming patches for my shows. I was pleasantly surprised how quickly I could navigate it. I feel like I now have no limitations with my Electro 5D on the bottom. So happy with my rig. I will say though that sonically.. the Jupiter sounded a touch better... don't know if it's the DA converters or what. But of course on the whole.. the Kronos is just killer!

Analogaddict Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 I've been working on a reliable solution for backtracks and click tracks, and in the Joeco BBR I believe I've found it, so I got my third (!!!) BBR for Xmas. I'm going to use two for backtracks (they have internal relays and can run in tandem) and one as an ultra-portable 24-ch recorder using my Apollo and two Behringer ADA8200 as preamps... :-) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
