what can i say. my band is in awe of this little black box. in conjunction with with our roland juno6, ms-2000, electribe, mpc200, also guitar bass and live drums. we are able to give the world our paticular version of sonic death.
This machine is the greatest noise making mono-synth that i have ever clapped my eyes on. mad whooshing noises galore, fantastic sine and one of the warmest bass drum sounds we have ever used(fine tuning req'd)
when we stole this from the physics dept from our local high school we had no idea what we had on our hands.
looks like a machine from the future. sounds like a machine from the future.
our entire out-fit is a love affair with the ms-10.

I got my MS10 new in 1980! I love the thing and definitely wouldn't sell it, though to me these days its uses are limited. I used to put it through a chorus pedal and echo unit which really fattened up the sound, but it was always a case of trying to make up for the lack of a second oscillator. Main uses for home-recording for me these days are for sine wave modulation effects and white noise sweeps - I've sort of rediscovered it in this respect and its likely to be featuring more heavily.

I owned this synth for about 6 months. After that, I really didnt use it much anymore. It sounds nice, but not as powerful to me as everyone else hypes it up to be. It can get a nice squelchy sound with the filter resonance turned up, but the basses that came out of it were way to muudy for me. Its a good 1 VCO synth if your in the market for one, but I just stick with my Micromoog now as I feel nothing else can touch it. I'd say the MS-10 is a decent 1 oscilator sytnh at best. Nothing amazing to me but thats just my opinion. I liked the way it looked better than it sounded.

there are both ms20 and ms10 when i bought this little monster.but sadly,my pocket only supported me to buy the smaller one--ms10.but i never regret my decision,though that ms20 was sold very quickly so that now i have to search for another ms20.the ms10 is fat,though it maybe the thinnest one in the big analog family,but compared to va,romplers,it can easily blows them away.i onced owned a mono/poly in my younger days,but it's only good for some metallic sound and efx,not fat enough even though it got 4 oscs and had a unison mode,the new ms2000 is really very close to the mono/poly,but surely not the ms20 of y2k,beware of this,newbies.anyway,ms10 is good for all analog stuff,from fat bass ,leads to random lfo efx and punchy rhytmic analog drums(booming kicks,snappy noisy snares,metallic hihats...).moreover,it's also a semi-modular u can play w/ other great modulars like affordable system100m,doepfer a100,evenfall or modcan,all are good.give a little bit of reverb they can really fly.
