  • Sooo, I'm sorta back at it. I couldn't stay away. Well, 6ft at least, but I never have overcome the withdrawals of solder rosin smoke. I'm taking in SMALLER ITEMS right now. IE space echoes, Drum machines, nothing too big (IE:NO SYNTHS) as I'm building out my home workspace. Need something fixed? Email meeeee info@lasynthco.com

  • Going through some old boxes here. Found all my test RAM from Roland days (this is just one bag of 30 pin). If I had a Delorean I'd take this and all the ADATs I have back and be a frillionaire. #ramalamadingdong

  • Just a heads up, as gear repair isn't an "essential service" our repair shop is closed. I've been getting a lot of messages asking for "emergency" repairs in the last few days. Boy, how nice it would be if the world's biggest problem was that a poly 800 lost its patches. I'm not going to risk my or anyone else's health for gear, especially during these times. I'm happy to help, but let's have our priorities straight. When this whole thing blows over, we will be back at it. But until then, you might have to download an app, learn to beatbox, or whittle a flute if you need to make some sounds . Be safe everyone, and if you can, go give blood, or donate money to those who need help. AND STAY HOME ❤️❤️❤️

  • I can't say enough good things about Terry's Rubber Rollers. If you need a roller for your whatever, he's your man. Can re-rubber your existing rollers and he has some oddballs in stock. I find them to be much better and less problematic than the urethane ones from down under. Less expensive too!

  • I've had a lot of people ask about reloading Jupiter 6 patches (as well as other synths) and say "my tape interface doesn't work!". I've never seen a synth with a broken tape interface, and find its the copies of the tapes online are compressed (audio or digital). I don't have the time or wherewithal to upload all of these, but it's just a matter of matching volume or your source is bad. Here is what a JP-6 looks like when the patches are being reloaded properly,it does work! :)

  • PSA: DONT ever do this to your Roland Space Echo. If you bend any of this tensioner assembly, it's harder to make it work reliably. The aftermarket arms available are too weak and don't hold the tape well. It also causes minor alignment issues that can be tricky to chase down. As always, it's cheaper to take it to a tech first than to YouTube or forum fix it wrong, then have to have someone undo it. This little copper arm is the most important part of the whole jam. #roland #spaceecho #re501 #re201 #themoreyouknow

  • I'm cleaning out my storage and finding things that need a different home. Roland disks/QDs, 2 Commodore64 for parts, IDE mass duplicator, Polysix cabinet...I'll be posting more as I go. If you want this stuff and can pick it up, PM/DM/SMS/Email me if you want it. FREE (pickup only) all or nothing. If you want it shipped, it's gonna cost substantially more.

  • *VOLUME WARNING* Several dozen people have asked for a demo of the flaws of the ripoff clone chips for the 106. Here is the least amount of effort I can do to demonstrate one of the issues :) . In this demo, set to VCF test, voices 1&2 are actual AR chips, voices 3&4 are the cheap clones dozens of sellers offer, and 5&6 are Roland chips that are failing to some degree. You can hear the pitch go sharp on 3&4 as the buffer design causes slow ramping. In addition (not audible in this video) there is some noisy ripping sound in the top end that the AR and Roland chips do not exhibit. This comes from poor power filtering. So far these are the biggies I've noticed. Save your pennies and buy good ones that aren't ripoffs.

  • I'm just going to go ahead and say do not buy a Korg Polysix unless it has a NEW CPU board or Kiwi kit. I've been flooded with recently purchased ones being sold as "recently serviced, battery issue dealt with" that are absolute disasters. I've only seen two in my career that don't have battery damage. Don't get sucked into a money pit!
