Good trade???

[mdsonic]

Is this a good trade offer....Probably not but I have a Fanton S and a Fantom X. I have an offer to trade the Fantom S for a Kurzweil K2000 and EMU Proteus 2000 rack module straight up. I do not have a Kurz in my studio and was wondering if it's a decent trade to consider...

It would be a good idea to get rid of FS, since FX does everything FS does, and does some thing better.

But I'm not sure if this particular trade is good... well, k2000 is pretty old, but so is the FS, and for FS you won't get k2500-2600...

You have to be prepared to either program the hell out of a Proteus 2000 or at the very least expand it with additional sound ROMs (available on eBay) as the stock sounds are appalling, although the individual samples are very reasonable. I have the Proteus 2000 soundset and the Vintage Pro soundset, and with the two together I can get some very nice sounds, although I still lack a top notch piano (you need the ZR-76 ROM for that)

No way. Run away very fast.

But yeah, do sell the S and maybe get a Motif ES rack or just go for a VA or something.
