Tell us about your rig

Brantley · Post by **Brantley** » Mon Jan 22, 2007 9:01 am

I'm more of a bass player, but what I have here is a:

1974 MiniMoog s# 4823
1974 Rickenbacker 4001 s#NL7337
Novation Super BassStation
Novation A-Station
Roland XP-30 w/Vintage Synth Card
Roland PK-5
Midi Buddy
Line6 Bass POD
Mackie 1400-i
B-52 M1515 cabinet

I've since dropped the BassStation and installed a Roland M120 since this picture was taken.
I've also changed the bass rig to an Ampeg SVP-CL with SVT 15E cabinets to remove it from the keyboard signal chain.

I almost got a new Kawai Upright Grand instead but there's just something about the Acrosonic's tone I liked...still sounds better than the pianos in any rompler...as long as I keep it tuned

The tuning's the problem with those Acros!

Spare a thought for the poor guy who has to do it !!

LOL

Tuning's the problem with any Spinet, especially the low strings....which is probably why nobody makes 'em anymore

My tuner appreciates the annual visit

You can totally tell by lookin' at that Ricky. Badass!

Well, this is just too much fun, so I'm gonna join the fray. A proper introduction, as I just joined this forum. There's a lot of crap, though, if you include the entire percussion rig. It's a pretty commanding view from in the cockpit... I'll have to put up a picture. But strictly as far as keyboards:

Opus 3, thru Boss overdrive and Crybaby
MG-1, thru Big Muff and MXR flanger
Roland SH-09, clean
...all piped into an ART ProVerb

Before recently it included an Alesis QS8, which I primarily used for piano/Rhodes/Hammond sounds (which weren't always fantastic, but the overdrive and wah dirtied them up just enough) but my guitarist took it back to his studio.

But that's another post.

Lookin' forward to jabbering about synths with you guys!

Hi! I currently own:

Rhodes Suitcase
Roland SH-1
Roland MC-202
Moog Rogue
Moog Minimoog
Various pedals including MXR phase 90 100, Electro harmonix big muff, memory man, and small stone, E13 TBSM, 2 DOD analog delays, Ibanez AD-203 flanger/delay, Ibanez UE-405,
Fender deluxe reverb cut into a head with Ampeg 4x12,
Old Hofner electric guitar
Old Guild Starfire bass
70s Ludwig Modorange drum set and various cymbals

Lastly, I have very little room for these things but a wife who understands and despite being a clean freak (rightly so) puts up with my disorganization relatively well--at least she hasn't sent the white coats out yet!

Moog Little Phatty Stage Edition - Leads, Bass, Sequences & SFX
Korg MS20 - Leads, Bass, Sequences, SFX, sound processing & weird stuff
Solina - Strings (well, duh...) and pads. With external effects you can do tons of stuff with it.
Mellotron - Have a guess...

Roland CR-78 - Rhythm. I often combine it with samples
Epiphone Viola bass - When I don't want synthbass

+

Electro Harmonix effects and software (effects, samplers)

Well, I've got things a lot more functional since I last posted in here. My current core setup:

-old pIII PC with Nuendo and a MOTU 828
-Tascam 388 8 track reel-to-reel super-portastudio thing
-Realistic MG-1
-Commodore 64 (soon to be upgraded with a second SID and full sync24-MTC conversion so I can really integrate it into my rig)
-Dynaco tube signal generator
-Bogen 5 channel, all-tube mono mixer
-Atari 2600 with Paul Slocum Synthcart
-a few three-head 1/4" reel-to-reels for echo
-a few old, rackmount digital delays (the kind with the radio button+multiplier method of setting delay times and the "hold" button, which are a lot more useful for me than most modern delays)
-old drum machines: Alesis HR16 (grey version), Roland TR-505
-various outboard effects (spring rever, DBX compressor, other stuff)
-Akai s01 and s612 samplers
-Casio SK-1 and a few other small keyboards
-Kork Poly61M (needs a little work)
-reed organs, small drums, and the like
-Ampeg b-15N
-Mesa/Boogie Studio 22
-a changing array of guitar stompboxes
-1968 Sunn Solarus (usually at my rehearsal space)
-portable cassette recorders, cassette portastudios, 4 track Tascam Syncassette rack unit, all-tube portable 1/4" reel-to-reel
-Basses, guitars, coral sitar, banjos (including a 1921 Gibson tenor that is probably the single best instrument I own, and makes me wish I was good at tenor banjo), mandolin, clarinet, balalaika(sp?), ukulele
-etc.

Still need:

-Electric tampura
-Gameboy ROM-cart writer and Littlesound DJ
-Atari ST

Have but don't really need:
-Apple II/E platinum
-Texas Instruments TI-4Ax

Mininmoog model D on top of that (when it's not in the shop - it's a bit too old tour around with).

A properly serviced and maintained Mini should have no problem being toured with.
