That's alright.  There will always be others that I hope will be at a more
convenient time for you.  Also the channel is of course available 24/7 so pop
in if you'd like, the more regulars the better.  ;)

Ya, I bet you'll like the Yamaha CS1X more than the nordlead.  If you like
Analogue synths you'll want (and I mean WANT) Minimoog, an ARP, an Oberheim
OB.  For digital eq, stuff like an e-mu Proteus 2000 or Audity 2000 are really
nice, although I've never tried those two out personally.  There's lots a cool
things out there, it really depends on how you like to work.  There's lots of
things you can do with an classic Amiga computer and OctaMED as well.

But anyways, on to your original question.  ;)
