Are you guys really going to compare a Jupiter 8 and a dss-1?
Come on.

They are 2 very different beasts. Even if it uses different tricks,
everything ends up in a sample in a dss-1. It's a sampler and you can't
compare to an analog synth. Any analog synth.

And I'm not saying it's no good, hell no! If I had the space I would  have
one. Sounds like a ton of bricks. If I had the money and the space I would
have both a jupiter and a dss.

Jammie is right about reliability issues with the jupiter 8. I would get
the 6 instead.

That being said... this is still the cz list, right?
