its 3950. a bit pricey compared to second hand market in singapore and US (if I exclude the shipping). and 3 knobs are not very responsive, luckily, I can use buttons & touchscreen as alternative.

the presets are very modern and ambient oriented, but I'm particularly attracted to the included 80's VA oscillators (juno/jupiter/jp8000/d50).

I have a feeling it might be redundant since I have motif, but , we'll see lor

justin_nys, i have no problems buying from ebay. check if the seller has high ratings. some more, M3 is made in japan, and has no moving parts. So it will be fine. I don't own an M3, but knows a bit about it

hi i remember some asking me where to get the double tier keyboard stand like Ultimate Apex which is not available in malaysia (or prepare to pay over RM700)

today I found the cap ayam one (MAGNUM brand) at DoReMi for RM270. i had the same brand more than 10 years ago (but had to sell it for money). it's sturdy. although assembling it requires a screw driver and couple of minutes.

there's few doremi which have this model in stock. I got this at their new branch at SS15

if got ZZZZ, normally it is caused by power supply grounding. try connect the keyboard to same outlet as TV, or other room to try

if plug in headphones /internal speakers oso got ZZZ , either

1) your house power line problematic. try plug in the keyboard at a friend's house

2) defective circuitry

lower end keyboards usually comes with low quality DA converters and components.

if under warranty, and confirm still got ZZZZ , return for warranty

antonio, stretch budget slightly a bit to get a Korg SP170 (or Korg SP170s, don't remember)

the best bang for the buck.

or try to get second hand

Yamaha P60, P70 under RM1500 if you can
