What gear do you love even though it isn't cool?
Not all gear is in "vogue", talked about, loved - and yet maybe it works for you.
A few of my favorites: the Korg 01/W and DW-8000, and the Ensoniq ESQ and SQ. I just can't seem to get the same incomplete and unrealistic and yet warm, fun, and mixable in the latest soft synths. Give me a synth that is trying too hard to be something that it isn't - and doesn't quite work. Today's synths are too polished.
Do you have gear you love even though it isn't "cool" to love it?
Like Pabst Blue Ribbon before it was cool to love it again... (maybe that's Old Milwaukee)
