Re: [oberheim] DMX lost shaker again live and kicking

2007-11-20 by Charles Massey

Easy for you to say.......  hahaha  Sounds like a $100. US job in  
America!

If this one had been changed, it had been changed at the factory  
because I bought it from a guy who had never used it.  He got it in  
the big sell off when Oberheim was going bust again.  I used it on  
stage for a very short time before we retired our duo.

  I guess you know that Bruce Springsteen's drummer used the triggers  
and that was the sound they used live for at least one tour.  No  
wasted time trying to get a "sound!"

I'm glad you got it going and have many more years of that great  
machine!
