"If your reading this you know how amazing this synth is. 100% working. The Trilogy has some of the most beautiful analogue strings you will hear and a full synthesiser section which can be mixed with the strings to create stunning analogue soundscapes. There is also an organ section which can also be mixed with the other sections for big analogue stacks of sound.
This Trilogy is in very good cosmetic condition with all buttons present, all sliders work as they should and all dials turn smoothly with no static noise etc - There is some very minor blemish to the wooden end cheeks, but they are still in very good condition.

The real gem of this synth is without a doubt the rich and vibrant analogue strings and the lovely synth section."

Roland MC-303 unfinished tracks

Published on Jan 22, 2016 MIDERA

"(See below for track listing and links to each section to bypass crap tracks)
I'm going to initialize my MC-303 so I can make more songs with it. Here are
the unfinished tracks that were either entirely mediocre, were good but
not good enough, or I liked but ran out of memory to continue. So here
goes wiping the unit clean and starting fresh...

Almost all of these tracks were made in 2013, when I made my "In the
absence of expression" album (which was 100% MC-303 only).

Track 1: 0:00
Track 2: 1:57
Track 3: 2:57
Track 4: 4:36
Track 5: 5:50
Track 6: 6:35
Track 7: 7:26

Enjoy"

"PERFORM. CREATE. INSPIRE.
The MZ-X Series is the evolutionary successor to Casio’s powerful MZ-2000 Series instruments. It will jump-start your creativity with its authentic sound, intuitive Color Touch Interface, and extensive control. This new flagship keyboard will enable musicians around the world to perform, create, and inspire like never before.

Over 1,100 high-quality Tones are provided, (over 900 on MX-Z300), covering a global variety of instruments. No matter what type of music you want to play, the MZ-X Series delivers.

Acoustic guitars include fret noise, harmonics, string slides and body slaps. Basses have smooth glissando from note to note. The new Versatile Tones provide these and other nuances, delivering incredible realism.

The Tones can be easily modified to suit your tastes, thanks to the realtime control knobs and sliders. You can also draw on a selection of 20 different effects to fit any occasion.

VIRTUAL TONEWHEEL ORGAN
The MZ-X Series faithfully reproduces the timeless sound of a vintage tonewheel organ. The rotary speaker is also simulated in great detail, giving you the complete vocabulary of this revered instrument. The physical sliders give you precise drawbar control, and easy onscreen buttons provide you with essential adjustments.

EASY PRODUCTION TOOLS
The MZ-X Series contains a 16-track MIDI recorder with a full suite of mixing and editing features, plus powerful effect processors and USB audio recording. Select an ensemble, record a performance, then connect a mic, add some vocal effects, and record your performance as an upload-ready WAV file.

AUTHENTIC RHYTHMS

Latin, Middle Eastern, European, Asian, and other global Rhythms are included, as well as a full spectrum of pop, jazz, rock, dance.
