Early 90's Keyboard Madness!

Re: Early 90's Keyboard Madness!

I have 2 Hammond organs man. One in Perth which works, and the earlier '61 model that doesn't work here. My uncle refuses to get the '71 model shipped over here..
 
Re: Early 90's Keyboard Madness!

Yeah I would say it's mixed correctly this time. Everything can be heard. There's no strange hisses. More like late 70/ early 80's keyboard tones, but still.
 
Re: Early 90's Keyboard Madness!

Yeah. I even have videos now where I demo this fabulous unit of a keyboard.
This is just one of them! :)
 
Re: Early 90's Keyboard Madness!

I wouldn't say it's a fabulous keyboard. I could probably get one of those for like $20 at a pawn shop, but still.

I can't find any anywhere. This would have cost around $1000 back in the early 90's. It has the optional floppy drive and it has two fill variations of each pattern.

Keyboards become obsolete very quickly. Even the Yamaha I have which was about 1-2 thousand new in the early 2000s would have significantly depreciated by now.

And looking at it, it looks like an beginner keyboard that one would get for a child wanting to learn. Nothing wrong with it, but it's not a professional level piece that would cost $1000 back then.

It's an Ashton AK-400. I cannot find one anywhere for the life of me. The synth sounds are great, but the weak point of it is the organ sounds.

Thats because they're not made anymore. They were replaced with the AK-120's it seems and those retail for $199.99 AUS.

I once again doubt the legitimacy of your $1000 price tag.

I hope the AK-120 lives up to the hype as it is a nice, resonant synth.
