from Roland. Sadly it was in my early years of electronic music and I wasn't any good at using them, so some years later I sold them again

SAME here only it was SH101 and a Prophet 600 instead of 808/303. I'm hungry for the 101 again... mine was the blue version

it's too much for what i need. i only really use it for bass so i might as well sell it and buy a simple 1 VCO analog synth.

First purchase as a Roland Juno-106 in 1996.

Also had an 808 which I regrettably parted with. Same thing with a LinnDrum! What was I thinking?

TR808
TR909
Juno106
Novation Bass Station
Ensoniq ASR-10
and a mixer.

All bought on the same day. Its been many years and many setups since then.

I now have a very stable setup based around my beloved Machinedrum and Monomachine. I miss the old setup sometimes tho.

my first piece of hardware was an Evolver! I were often thinking of selling it, but everytime I play around with it it`s just awesome fun. Evolver Outs into Jomox M-Resonator`s Ins can get very interesting =)

So I think I`ll never sell my Evolver, it's a source for very good sounds and makes a lot of fun!
