You get shipwrecked, and land somewhere on shore down on an small warm unhabited island
off the coast of Australia...
Everything is deserted, and helps *hopefully* on the way soon, but in typical lost style you
have wandered across a single plug point...interesting....
Equally weird, a flight box with a set of speakers, cable and a little mixer has crashed onto
shore too, so you are thankful that in your backpack before you went into the water you
managed to hurriedly pack your prized {INSERT} into waterproof packaging and strap onto
your body before being hurled to shore.
What did you pack to pass the time?
Mine : Elektron machinedrum, as it has a sequencer which I would prefer to pass the time with
rather than playing using keys, some kick ass drum sounds for tweaking, and some cool
synthesis for the rest!

This classic powerful synth sounds better than a memorymoog, OBXa or a prophet 5 and doesnt have the stability problems thanks to using DCO's. It also has a very good sequencer for its time.
This would keep me occupied for some time.
Then when i got fed up I could use it as a life raft and float to Sydney for supper at Doyles Fish Restuarant on Watsons Bay, thanks to the vast amount of wood that went into the Synthex's build.

btw Jock, i think you need to get your video cam out and make a video review of the Elka for DT
Anyways, does it have to be a synth? cos of course i'd choose an acoustic guitar, given the lack of electricity on the island
Hi Alan... hows the band going ?

It needs to be a synth for this one, becuase there is indeed a plug point mentioned in the first
post
So.... whats it to be?

Synthex info / review
I'm chuffed to bits I own one. Had it for about 7 years now. I would never get rid of the thing.
