Thanks, Bakis. I don't understand the photo uploading problem. A guy on the synthesizers.com list reported getting the same Yahoo error messages I got today for about two weeks straight. It may have to do with network traffic. I'm certain it couldn't reflect badly on the highly reputable people of Yahoo who shield my privacy like a priceless jewel. I recall getting all manner of serviceable sounds out of the JX-8P, but it's in no way comparable to the A6 in range or fatness, and doesn't come close to having that analog thing-ness that makes an A6 stand up so well against the most ridiculously fully-outfitted virtual polysynths out there like the Virus. They've got way more range, but the A6 has way more authority. The analog-ness of a JX-8P wouldn't be nearly enough to keep a Virus at bay. > -----Original Message----- > From: bakis Sirros [mailto:synth_freak_2000@yahoo.com] > Sent: Monday, December 09, 2002 6:25 PM > To: Doepfer_a100@yahoogroups.com > Subject: RE: [Doepfer_a100] Photos posted > > > hi again,. > i uploaded one of your pictures to the photos > section!i don't see any problem with the photo > uploading.... > by the way,i had my jx8p with a pg800 programmer but > i,still,didn't like it's sound.as you describe it,it was very > "creamy".........but not bad for pads. of course,the A6 will > be much,much better...right? bakis. > > > > --- unknown freak <cgraef@nyc.rr.com> wrote: > > Ah, yeah, hehheh.
