OK, so I did a bit of wheelerdealing and got meself an Emax 4 50 squid. Now after one friggin week, the Emax has died; Luckily I was canny enuuf 2 buy it from a dealer rather than through the classified, so I can do a swap. As wonderfull as it sounded, I`ve been put off another Emax, so I`m thinking maybe a synth or two cos this guys gotta Sh-101 and MC202 for sale so I could get one of them and get a little bit of credit leftover. I`ve kinda heard varying comments on these pieces from "Its a bassline weapon" to "Its a useless piece of shit" and theres no way I can get 2 try one out b4 I buy it so has anyone got any opinions on these pieces?

R-Tek the Sh-101 I use is a software emulation so that may disqualify me from how the hardware behaves but the sound by all accounts is spot on....I love it and theres nothing soft about its sound.... if you want aggressive in your face bass and brittle bone shattering leads its for you...you probably could tweek out something ambient from it....but from my experience it doesnt really lean that way....hell now that you sort of committed to the dealer unless he/she is willing to give you your money back Id say go for.

I think the 101/202 gets a lot of times misunderstood on records as being a 303. (Stakker Humanoid? Wink's classic? Aphex Twin's Digderidoo? I could be wrong but aren't those all 101/202s?).
But I found the 101 / 202 to be actually more aggressive and in your face than a 303 and less overused. Hope one day to get one.

I`m real tempted, I must say cos I love me bass. Hmmmm........Stakker Humanoid and Didjeridoo eh? Think I`ll bite the bullet, if I don`t like it, I can always break it and tell the guy he`s sent me another duffer. Thanks 4 your help, its appreciated.

saying that assuming you mean both are 50 quid as a substitute for the emax which you said was a bullseye... both for 50 is robbery.. make sure you wear a mask when you go to pick them up... jammy git... but if the emax was fucked maybe those 2 are 2

Lol. I can appreciate the fact that I can b a little dense sometimes, but not that dense. I bought a W-30 cheap and sold it on 4 a profit when I decided against it, and bought the emax with my profit plus 50 sheet (the emax was 300, which I know is waaayyy too much, but that was the only dealer with one in stock and I didn`t really give a shit cos it`d cost me next 2 nought anyway). The 101 and 202 r 235 and 245 respectively, which is maybe still steep but I still don`t give a shit. Think I`ll go 202.

I spoke 2 the guy today, and he may b getting a 202 with midi retrofit and extra filter bolted on from a repair place that repossesed it after someone couldn`t pay 4 the repair bill so I`m gonna hold tight and see what happens.

I've got an SH-101. My very first keyboard. Red one. Bought it new, has never broke. Lost the little handle grip thing, though. Totally fun little mono synth. It's lows can make your woofer cones hop out of their baskets and it's highs are so piercing you can torture your neighbor's dog. Worth more today than I paid for it. If only I would've ended up with the 909 we were using back then, too. Oh well.
