Subject: Master MIDI-synth and Jupiter-4 questions

Hi guys and gals.

First of all, I want to give credit to all of you who contribute, and make
this list to the pool of  information it really is.  It is amazing : )

A couple of months ago, I baught a Jupiter-4. It also was my first synth
ever.
I had two JP4's to choose between. One with Kenton MIDI and one original.
Me being an original freak, baught the original one. I have no regrets, but
now, I need a synth to connect with my PC. I have the JX-10 in mind. I can
get one, included alu-flight, for $1050 or NOK  Kr 8000,-

I really would like some pointers regarding this or other synths suitable
for this purpose. It must be nice to play though, and preferable vintage but
no must.

The other  thing on my mind is my above mentioned Jupiter. I have become to
love that synth, the sound the looks... It is in really nice condition too.
The only thing is, that some keys randomely do not work. I hope that the
cure is to be cleaning, but I have not dared to opened the synth up yet.

It would be great to get some feedback on theese two.
