[color=#444444][font=tahoma,][b]Description from [url="http://www.vintagesynth.com/yamaha/qy700.php"]vintagesynth.com[/url]:[/b][/font][/color] [color=#444444][font=comic sans ms, cursive][size=5]<< [/size][/font][font=tahoma,]The QY700 is a high-end Sequencer Workstation released in the mid to late '90's. It's an all-in-one sequencer with a built-in synthesizer, effects, MIDI and tons of memory! The QY700 makes an excellent alternative to computer-based MIDI studios; the QY700 has the power to be the heart of your MIDI studio. Of course such boxes as the Yamaha RS7000 have come along since the introduction of the QY700 that add more features and capabilities. But the QY700 is nostalgic and still powerful enough to hold up to today's standards![/font][/color] [color=#444444][font=tahoma,]At its core, it is a programmable MIDI sequencer. It can store up to 110,000 notes, 48 Tracks (32 Linear, 16 Pattern) and 20 Songs. A built-in 3.5 inch disk drive provides external storage. The sequencer has 64 notes of polyphony which is usually more than enough. The sequencer allows recording in Step, Punch-In, and Realtime with overdubbing features. The tempo can range from 5 to 300 bpm and the Conductor Track is very flexible. Thankfully a fairly large 320 x 240 backlit LCD screen makes entry and editing very easy to see and use.[/font][/color] [color=#444444][font=tahoma,]In addition to controlling your synths via MIDI, the QY700 has it's own Yamaha synth engine inside. Using AWM2 - Advanced Wave Memory - as well as Yamaha's XG format and good old General MIDI sounds, the QY700 has an ample selection of quality digital sounds ready to use! You get nearly 4,000 drums, bass, guitar, and synth sounds. There's even a library of Phrases like intro, fill and ending patterns that you can use. These phrases are highly tweakable and can be made all your own. There's also Chord memory and plenty of built-in effects to use on the internal sounds as well. The QY700 even has a pseudo 2-octave keyboard and assignable mini Pitch/Mod wheels, and programmable foot switches for start, stop, fill, etc. Additional MIDI I/O's and outputs would have been nice, but it's still a capable and musical sequencer. >>[/font][/color] [color=#444444][font=tahoma,][b]What I'm selling/including:[/b][/font][/color] [color=#444444][font=tahoma,]The QY700's 'shell' is somewhat worn in places, but this in no way affects how the unit functions. The only functional fault that I am aware of is the data wheel, which works fine turning clockwise, but not anti-clockwise. Thankfully it is very quick to enter data values quickly using the alpha-numeric keys.[/font][/color] [color=#444444][font=tahoma,]Comes with the KPA6N power adapter - weighs as much as a small car! The manual is easily available online, but I will include it on a CD anyway.[/font][/color] [color=#444444][font=tahoma,]I am also including a USB external floppy drive. It's very unusual to find a floppy drive on a computer these days, so I have included this so that you can load songs and styles in bulk via disk, as well as via the MIDI ports.[/font][/color] [color=#444444][font=tahoma,]If you would also like some used but serviceable floppy disks and a pair of MIDI leads, let me know and I will chuck them in too.[/font][/color] [color=#444444][font=tahoma,]Looking for [color=#0000cd][size=6][b]£185[/b][/size][/color] posted within UK.[/font][/color] [color=#444444][font=tahoma,][/font][/color]

Having just splurged an unconscionable sum on a skinny-string geetar, I steeled myself and set about rounding up the bits and pieces I no longer use. Sentiment be damned, EVERYTHING MUST GO! All prices are delivered within the UK, payment by bank transfer or PayPal. If you collect and pay cash I will give a suitable reduction for the postage. All pedals work on battery or standard Boss-type power supply unless stated otherwise. [b](1) Electro-Harmonix Deluxe Electric Mistress Flanger and Filter Matrix[/b] Bought new in 2000, USA made, complete with wooden box, manual, colour catalogue, and (very important this) proper UK EHX 3-pin 16V power adaptor! No battery option. In line with its vintage quirkiness, there is a slight volume drop when the effect is engaged. I have added a status LED using the spare connections on the foot-switch. If you would rather have true bypass instead, let me know, I can re-wire it accordingly (although I can't guarantee that you won't get some switching clunk). [color=#0000ff][b]Price: £100[/b][/color] [color=#0000ff][b][/b][/color] [b](2) Akai P1 Intelliphase Phaser[/b] This is a 4-stage phaser (like the Phase 90 and Small Stone, but with more knobs), with the addition of touch sensitivity. You can set the phaser to come in on loud notes (peaks), soft notes (as the sound dies away), or all the time. A bit greedy on battery power, so best to use an AC adaptor. Comes with original box and manual. [color=#0000ff][b]Price: £100[/b][/color] [b][/b] [b](3) Danelectro Chili Dog Octave[/b] Seems to be modelled on the OC2 i.e. you get controls for Direct, Oct 1 (1 octave down) and Oct 2 (2 octaves down). Monophonic effect - works best with the neck pickup on a skinny-string, but tracks reasonably well down to E on the A string on a bass [i]if[/i] you pick smoothly. No box. [color=#0000ff][b]Price: £27[/b][/color] [b](4) Danelectro French Toast Octave Fuzz[/b] This pedal calls itself a distortion, but believe me, it's a vicious fuzz effect, reputed to be a clone of the Foxx Tone Machine (for a lot less dosh). The Octave mode adds a subtle octave up, like the Octavia effect used by Jimi Hendrix. Normal mode can generate hum because of the huge gain, but Octave mode cancels most of this out, which is quite handy. Boxed. [color=#0000ff][b]Price: £27[/b][/color] [b](5) Danelectro Tuna Melt Tremolo[/b] Lovely opto-driven vintage-sounding tremolo. This was a staple of my guitar pedalboard until I got the true-bypass metal-cased version. HARD setting bypasses the depth control to give a stuttering on/off effect - instant bass sequencer! Comes with slightly bashed box. [color=#0000ff][b]Price: £22[/b][/color] [color=#0000ff][b]Please post any questions about condition, operation, technical stuff here; anything else please PM me.[/b][/color] [color=#008000][b]And finally: Once everything has gone, I shall reveal what it is that I bought![/b][/color] [color=#000000][i]EDIT for missing pic[/i][/color]

Dang, why did you have to wait till I'd just bought an expensive geetar!?

Dan - just noticed your Website and Band links don't work. Free (but fairly pointless 15-minute) bump.
