Yamaha CS1x A neat blue synthesizer from the 96.
It's multitimbral (except in performancemode) and it has some of those
strings you just can't live without. It allso has some great filters
that can be modefied with the knobs.
Sounds are very easy to program and the builtin effects is easy to use.
The drumbanks is all shit, but with some filters, and effects you cand make someting useful.
It's a cheap, good, allround synth.

Korg MS-10 It's actually not ours. We have only borrowd it.
It is a very old analog synth from the late 70ties and has no midi device.
But it has a few CV ports wich we are able to control with the TeeBee.
The sound is hyper analog and can scream as high as you can hear.
It looks very funny(see pictures) with all knobs and ports.
It's not so useful but it's analog.

Alesis Qs6 A synth in the same class as the
Yamaha CS1x but it's a bit better.
The strings is wonderful and there are alot of strange sounds. The drums are
better then CS1x but could be better. Though the lack of a good crash is something
you might hook up on to. The effects is dificult to program, but when you succeede
they are really useful. The CS1x is worth it's price, it has almost everything
and ofcourse it's multitimperal.

Roland MC-303 Groovebox
This is not a Roland TB-303 clone which many people thinks. It hasn't even a analog
instrument. It's just a synth shrinked to a little box with inbuilt sequencer.
With one word a groovebox. The only thing to complain about is that it's a little tricky with
midi channels. But with sysx commands it's easy to solve. The drumkits from the TR-808
and 909 is quite good and the instrumets sounds not so badd with some panning reverb or
anny other effects. It's good for live performances(because of the inbuilt sequencer)
but it's little tricky in MIDI. It has superb drums and incredible sounds if effects is used.

Syntecno TeeBee 303 This is a true Roland TB-303 clone
excluding the sequencer but with more features.
It's fully MIDI controlable and you can even control the slide (portamento) via controllers.
It allso have 2 midi thru connections that can be very useful.
It has 4 CV/Gate outputs for controling old synths like the MS-10, Minimoog etc.
It allso have a SYNC conector. A pretty cheap TB-303 clone but needs a dist and delay unit.
