Artist History Begun toying with my fathers organ in mid 80's. Got my first synthesizer in the summer of 88, a Korg Polysix, and started to make some serious noise with it. Got me a multi timbral synthesizer in 1990 along with an Atari and the music really started to sound like actual music. Used the Atari until 1997 when the number of synthesizers where to much for the poor little Atari to handle. Moved to PC based sequencer instead. Have tried a lot's of synthesizers/samplers during the years but now I feel satisfied with my current setup. Sampler: Akai S5000 (when I die, I want to be buried with it..) Bread-n-butter synthesizers: Roland JV-1010 (nice!) Roland XV-5050 (nicer!) Strange/odd sounding synthesizers: Kawai K5000S (nothing sounds like it! programmers dream/nightmare) Korg Wavestation SR (old but powerful and unique) Virtual Analog Synthesizers: Access Virus B (2 words: KICKS ASS!!) Korg Z1 (dream machine!) Nord MicroModular (good for weird sounds)
