An Original Owner

An Original Owner

2006-05-04 by Dale Morgan

Hi,

I am an original owner of the SD-1 32-voice.  I'm not sure exactly 
when I bought it, but it was right after Ensoniq introduced it.  I 
really haven't played it much sent I purchased it.  I played in a 
group back in the 70's and just bought it to mess around with around 
the house.  I let my kids play around with it as they were growing 
up and they both really enjoyed it (it must be a sturdy keyboard 
because they didn't hurt it at all!)  When they left home a few 
years ago, I got it back!  So, basically, I'm a beginner (again) -- 
since I've forgotten most of what I ever knew about the machine.  I 
do have the manuals, though, so I'm working my way back through 
those.

Does anyone know of a source for songs on floppy?  Maybe easy 
listening, or oldie type stuff - or whatever.  It would be nice to 
have some around when entertaining or to sing and play along with -- 
just not sure if there's anything out there available since the SD-1 
is well past its prime.

If anyone has any input on this, I would appreciate it.  By the way, 
I'm still on the original battery, which seems like an awfully long 
battery life.

Thanks,
Dale
