Really? If I am ever again looking for a digital piano, Yamaha and Kawai are the only two brands I'll likely consider. Nothing but great experiences with Yamaha P and CP series DPs.
I love my Yamaha P-140.

still getting a lot of mileage out of my M-Audio PCI cards.
this could be a long list<G>!
AKG C3000 - the only microphone I've ever tried for which I can find no use.
M-Audio made a wonderful series of affordable PCI cards. I had the little Omni Studio package, a Delta 66 card with a breakout box, 2 XLRs etc... It was fine for my needs, and the only reason I gave it up was the non-native PCI legacy bridge thing didn't work well on my new PC build, so I had to abandon it.2496 by any chance? I still have one in my slave, just in case! They were (and still are) good cards.

Yep. That's the one that came out and completely bummed me out. Better machine, much lower price. Although I did use the QX-1 for years.The QX-5, right? It was a great sequencer. I used the heck out of mine.
Yamaha VL1.
Risk display problem is reason why i selled my Juno-G. btw my worst purchase what i never used anything is still Roland U-110 with few expansion cards.Roland Juno-G synth. It had a defective LCD screen, which was a big issue for a lot of people who made the mistake of buying this, and the defect was never properly acknowledged or rectified.
PARIS was designed by Stephen St. Croix (or a name very close to that) who died way before his time. Very nice guy.
The fellow who reviewed it for Recording magazine when I was there was a Pro Tools fan, and he wasn't effusive. That required some political finesse!
Everytime I adjust anything on my Slave PC, I pretty much waste the entire next day having to fix network issues. I remember wasting 3-4 ENTIRE DAYS trying to get Thunderbolt set up on it, and when I finally had my breakthrough moment (which came 2 weeks later, after I had given up), the transfer speeds were pathetic, so I just went on without it.I'm such a Windows noob. I needed someone from a PC shop to get my network configured but now I can't go to internet with this PC anymore. Well, I can but this shredders my slave connection. If I then want to go back to slave mode I need to watch hours of YT videos of youngsters explaining network gibberish until they show the sub-sub-under-menu where I have to click strange settings.... oh I hate it! I also didn't find a solution to backup the whole system. It works now but the day the system drive crashes will be the end of this PC and all the useless time invested.
