OT -- oberheim matrix 1000 vs. matrix 6 ???

hi all,

sorry for this off topic post. i have an opportunity to
snag an oberheim matrix 6r for $180. meanwhile i have an
opportunity to buy a matrix 1000 and the access programmer
for it for like $225 for the whole package. i'm divided on
which i should go for, if either.

i've heard a matrix 6 before. it sounded so fat and warm,
the horns and basses especially. THAT's the sound i want.

i know the matrix 6r will give me that sound. however, it
is 4 rack spaces.

i have never heard a matrix 1000. would it give me that
same fat, warm sound?? the synth sites online say it's "the
same" as the matrix 6r. but there HAS to be some technology
differences, to fit it all in 1 rack space. is it still a
true analog synth?? does it sound as fat and warm?? and it
costs a little more, too. i would hate to shell out money i
don't have, and then not have that warm, fuzzy sound i fell
in love with.

anybody heard either or both of these? what would you go
for?

thanks for reading. feel free to email me privately so this
OT stuff doesn't clog up the list. THANK YOU!

loop on,

dylan
