Yeah i'm a fun of scrounging around for cheap little used modules like Mopho, ms2k, ms20 mini, mother32, mini/monologue, the Roland and yamaha recreations jp08, bass station 2 and various novas from Novation, emu proteus 2k. Roland actually has released dozens of rackmounts, some quite decent. Also kits: Preen, audiothingies, mutable instruments etc. It's astounding what you can buy for under $300 in many cases. I do wish for a cheap knobby controller like the maudio axiom or novation SL mk2 that has reliable faders, pots and encoders. Those are the one instrument product i would say you should buy new and get the extended warranty from Sam ash or Guitar center. When the pots start shooting out lots of spurious midi CC's, deoxit's not going to save you. Deoxit's great for making door hinges stop squeaking tho
