Over the past decades, I have let updates to this page lapse...... In 2009, I put all of my music gear into a climate controlled self-storage unit while I moved to a different state. One weekend at 3AM, a drunk driver went 200 yards off the main road and crashed into the back of my self-storage unit. The car was going over 100 MPH, went airborne, landed upside down and caught fire... on top of all my music gear... a one in a million chance Synthesizers, samplers, mixing consoles, rack effects, guitars, speakers, and music specific computers were crushed, split in two, set afire, mangled or a combination of all four!!! Over time, I have slowly put my music studio back together again. The deceased driver had no car insurance and my insurance company would only pay pennies on the dollar for "old and antiquated" synth gear ($65 to replace a Roland S-50 in mint condition? Give me a break! I bought it new for $2,300. Freakin' insurance companies... What a scam) I am currently in the process of updating everything on this website, including a somewhat new look..... removing outdated files and adding new ones (more patches, utilities, reference charts and info). As time flies by, stay tuned for better organization and future goodies Super JX... still one of the greatest synths ever, in my opinion In fact... I think mine has Magical Super-Powers... it was the only synthesizer untouched in the crash (heavy sigh of relief!)
