I bought one over a year ago and I do love it a lot. I have a second modular now which is just more drum voices and effects for the techno system and I find it helps to have some more modules for it. It is also very expensive and then most expensive piece of gear I have bought.
I bought it, tried it, realized I do not have time/energy for a modular system, and traded it away for a Peak and a Nina.
All in all Iām happy with the entire experience, as I learned more about my tastes and preferences when it comes to hardware.
Techno forever
Thanks for the conclusion. Iād been waiting forever to hear how the story ends.
Just like a great techno live setā¦no real ending, just an interesting transition.
Was it your first modular? Was it the patching that ultimately made it feel like a time, and energy consumer.
I have a bunch of semi modular stuff, but this was my first dive into a fully modular system. I have a 3 year old and now a newborn, and I quickly realized that the patching time required is actually the amount of time I have to jam on any given day.
I learned that modular is not for me, at least at this stage of life. I got a RD-9 to fulfill my 909 slot, and pair it up with the TD-3 when I want to scratch that itch (with Digitakt covering samples). Not the same, but easier and more fun for me in the here and now.
Hi
What would u guys think the average price is for a s/h unit in the UK?
Thanks
I reckon anything between Ā£2600 to Ā£3200 seems to be the average. Iāve not seen one go below Ā£2500.
And thatās based on about 10 coming up for sale over the last few years, so not the greatest pool to take an average from.
Oh OK thereās one on ebay but they want Ā£2800 I thought that was a bit steep
Thanks
Iāve seen them go for less, but Ā£2800 is ok if itās in really good nick and got the sample drum module.
Having said that though, itās cash converters selling it, so Iād be a bit hesitant, purely because youāre not gonna know its history.
Yeah thatās what I thought I was willing to pay around 2k mark for it
But they can dream on at £2800 with no history
Cash Converters will consider a low ball FWIW. They have no skin in the game so to speak.
Iāve won silly offers from them before.
Iāve tried they came back with Ā£2800
But I do agree they normally will accept a low but Iāve messaged them several times since before crimbo and they havenāt replied Fxxk em
I think youād need to know a little bit more for that, I donāt like that missing pot either.
Knock em down if theyāve still got it in a few weeks. If someone wants to pay that then good luck to em.
Thatās what I was thinking
Out of interest what would u pay for it?
Thanks
I would need a REALLY good price to give Cash Converters that sort of money. They donāt know anything about it, do they. But on the other hand, who buys a Techno System and doesnāt look after it?!?! Thereās also a good chance itās a steal.
Iām just a Perkons user who occasionally ogles at stuff like this, but I would be tempted at Ā£2.5k. Itās Cash Converters for christ sake and Iām sure they want it gone! But still, for that sort of money Iād drive over there and spend some time with it. I still donāt like that missing pot, regardless of price.
Itās 4700⬠@ Thomann; 2800 Pounds 3360⬠(which would be ok for me).
Probably not realistic to spot the entire system at 3k (ā¬).
Otherwise: I would NOT buy pre-configured systems again (did so with my Black System III).
Going for a slow build up over time is less painful than buying everything at once.
Its on my Christmas List every year.
Santa never brings it though.
I know the feeling at my age i dont even get socks no more
