jump to expanded posti regret to inform you i have bought another old midi module but but but i'ts the prettiest one and at an extremely good price so you see. i had to
โชi saw one of these in a shop in berlin a few months ago and instantly knew i wanted one. it has the classic design and form-factor of the sc-55, but the power of the sc-88, and it just looks so pretty in white. but they wanted too much for it. today i finally got luckyโฌ
โชit's messed up how things take time to shipโฌ
even this photo doesn't really do it justice, in cooler lighting the saturation of the orange is much more obvious and also the buttons to the immediate right of the screen light up in a wonderful coral colour. also, the way the display visualises notes is a thing of beauty
โชngl i did have to check i wasn't dreaming when one of these popped up on Kleinanzeigen for โฌ99โฌ
finally i can listen to this banger [SC-88 demo song TOXOPLASMA, clearly the theme of cat enthusiasts] on my own hardware!!! ๐งก https://twitter.com/OnlyMIDIs/status/1597643441089155074
โhey hikari where can i learn more about this sound module you boughtโ
thank you for asking, imaginary interlocutor! at https://dtm.noyu.me/wiki/Roland_SC-88
โhey i've never heard of that wikiโ
you wouldn't have! i only started it quite recently
@hikari I have an 55MkII variant here (SC-55K) because 88's cost too much and most 88 music ALMOST sounds right on a 55MkII.
Also an MT-32, which i could not afford if i were to try to get one today
@wyatt8740 thankfully i hear MUNT is pretty good? also there's Roland's SCVA plugin which stops being sold tomorrow
@wyatt8740 but having real hardware is great, i totally get it, i own too much haha
yeah, there's a real โDOS gamer taxโ :/
