I'm stuck using a stripped down rig right now (lack of studio space) so I'm not doing much with my 100-1200 series synths, but I'm still very interested in using the four layers in the instruments to set up some patches with vector synthesis. Right now the only thing I'm managing to do is get some P1 connectors re-soldered.

Absolutely agree, yet people rave about the EMU Proteus range, which to my mind aren't a patch on the 1000 series. I think part of the problem is that the 1000 series synths are fully fledged synths with all sorts of facilities for sound mangling, whereas the Proteus originals were essentially preset sounds (and some of them were really naff).
I have to admit after 35 years that there are still bits of the synth manual I don't understand. It's the same old story - 90% of owners of any synth use presets and never attempt to program from scratch. {erhaps if Kurzweil had offered a hardware programmer a la Roland things might have been completely different?
