Nice, and always good to see a bit of dymo label action :

PolyPhuckin · July 15, 2008, 02:32:07 AM

heres a pic for anyone who doesn't have a myspace

Everything on its pretty standard for an SA keyboard, except the four body contacts.
Every time i use them, they do something else, be it act like a filter, set of drum loops, distort, random glitches you name, they do it.

I love that Dymo, got it from Lidl for £4.99

aha the fabulous sa2

wicked job !

maybe time for a sa2 picture topic
would love to see them all in line

PolyPhuckin · July 15, 2008, 11:05:52 PM

Its actually an SA-9, but the 9 is covered by the jack socket.

But id still be interested to see other peoples versions

nochtanseenspecht · July 16, 2008, 03:53:13 PM

ah, okay

PolyPhuckin · July 16, 2008, 04:02:36 PM

Well how about just an 'SA Picture topic'?

Come on every one, get some pictures up...

Sweet! Really like the big chunky knobs, probably gives really fine adjustment.
I'd like to see a "Photogallery" forum just for fun. I really dig all the variations people come up with. (you can see my just-completed PSS-30 in the "Yamaha PSS series keyboards" thread

)

I love the big knobs (that could be misconstrued $:-\$ )
The power crash used to crash out suddenly when just using the stalk on the pot, but its a bit better now with a knob on it, plus it looks good.

HA!! Knobs...

Does any one know why the SA-5s are going for more than, say, an SA-1 on Ebay? Arn't they pretty much the same on the inside?

PolyPhuckin · July 17, 2008, 11:52:37 PM

Just got my self an SA-1 of Ebay for £8
