The sound is so beautiful. I wish sounds like this were used more often.

Are you playing the Microwave through the JD-800?

and how easy is it to use?

Thanks for your great demoes!!

[retrosound72]

yes through the jd-800

The MW2 is really easy to use.

Wow what a great piece of music. Please make an album - I will buy it :)

One of my favourite live synths. Very versatile (much more than the Mk I), powerful, cuts through the band like an hot knife through butter. Layers, solosounds, weird stuff, brass sounds, lofi or scifi sounds - it offers nearly everything that is needed. Love it.

There is a welcome harshness to this synth's sound that I've always appreciated.

I often like to do Pink Floyd/David Gilmour type stuff. This sounds like it could really be a main synth for me. So I just bought one! Ha ha! It should be here soon. I'm actually selling an A-Station and a Virus rack (the 1u version) because I don't think I'll be needing them anymore. I may actually work toward having the Microwave and my E-mu B-3 simulator as my only synths besides having a nice board like Kurzweil. Right now I use Yamaha EX7 as my main board, Alesis Ion on the side.
