Hi, my name is Fred, I live in Norfolk, UK. I used to play guitar and bass but arthritis has dealt me a rotten hand (literally) so I've turned to synths to satisfy my creative urges.

I'm a retired studio and live engineer, electronics engineer and computer programmer, and I just want to have fun with music.

Currently, my gear includes:
Large Eurorack modular with Kenton MIDI to CV
Behringer 2600 and Pro-800 synths
Several Behringer Model Ds
Yamaha TX-802, QX21 and RX21
Boss GM-800
Studiologic SL-990
Novation Launchkey 37 MK4
iConnectivity MioXL
RME Digiface USB
Focusrite Octopre
SSL UF8
And more.

It's a pleasure to have you with us and to hear your story. Do you already own all of these amazing instruments? That was quite a rapid transition, I must say!

Yes, I own all the gear I listed. I've been collecting pro-audio gear for many years and upgrading when I can afford, I've acquired the synths in the past couple years and still looking for interesting instruments. The TX-802 is a fascinating machine and I'm gradually learning how to program it - software like DXED and DX Manager are extremely helpful. I hope to create my own patches and share them here in the future.
