i'm somehow interested in the midi-controller version...
you guys think it's useful? i expect some more hands on stuff, then those annoying mouse-actions... I already own a masterkeyboard though, so maybe a midi-poti-board is a better investment? what you think? how much is this unit worth it anyway? thanx for any feedback...
...a real MS-20 is too expensive for me, but incoming taxes should get me a MS-10 easily... (one OSC only though)
Main thing I like about the soft-version is that I'm able to save patches and I could use multiple patches in a track without changing the previous settings, if you know what I mean...
Are 500€ ok for a MS-10 in good shape?
thnx fam...

wax, 500€ for an ms20 is really cool!!!!
here it's about 800/900€
but please don't kill me man, because...
...
...i found one for just 19€!!!!it was on a used things store, with its sequencer (it was 19€ too!)!!
the store were wrong and they didnt recognize this rare (and very expensive) synth!
this machine got no midi (as you know)but CV and the sequencer can easly been substitued by a groovebox, there are many examples of that on youtube...

the ms20 is very cool in sound (mainly for basses but also some other sounds) and also is a machine with wich is cool to start modular synthetis. i mean, it's a bit complicated but is not even like a mega modular synth...
it is monophonic with 2 voices, so you can do also some sort of duophonic stuff...one thing that i love also is its filters: they're great!
the sequencer is cool too, but as i said before you can do almost the same things (and more:the seq10 got no "swing") with some grooveboxes (or other*) if you're searching for "the sync".

weirdy stuff:
you can even play a guitar (or what you want)
to trigger the ms20 sound

I'm stuck using the iMS-20 app and a midi controller on my ipad.....
A real ms20 would be epic!
For all you synth nerds I have found the perfect backpack synth
