Welcome to my Website. I own a Technics SX-EA3 organ although I aspire to own a SX-GA2 one fine day. This Website is about the model I am most familiar with but I am sure, owners of other model or make may find a thing or two that may be of interest. Please note that this Website is not affiliated with Technics or any links shown. This is a personal effort from a Technics organ music lover.

I would like to thank my wife Sok Leng, the designer of this Website for helping me all the way. Now have fun and enjoy!

    Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to everyone. I have updated the Mail Bag page and I have added some of the more recent e-mails I received. Thank you all again for writing in and offering your kind words about this website. One kind request, please don't ask me about the value of an organ you are planning to buy or sell. I am not able to help you here. A million thanks also to George Hardaker who has created the rhythm and sound data from his GA1. It will be made available to all EA3/5 users who wish to expand the number of sounds and rhythm. Look out for it in a few days time. Right now I am going off to do my last minute X'mas shopping.

    Numerous Technics organ owners (especially those who own the lower end models) have asked me if I have any additional sound data or rhythm data that can be uploaded to their organ. Unfortunately, after many request to the Technics office in Japan for the official data file, still no reply. I understand that Yamaha gives away such data through the music schools freely thereby expanding the range of sounds and rhythm pattern of their Yamaha organs. I am therefore asking any kind GA1/2/3, FA1, F100 owners out there to spare a few hours of your time to create this data file. I will then place the data files in this website for all to download and use. Please click here to download an 8KB text file listing the sounds and rhythms that are NOT available on the EA3 (you don't need to save the sounds and rhythm patterns that are already available on the EA3). There is a short description at the end of the text on how to go about creating the data. Owners of EA1 model, some older models and all models without a floppy disk; in case you are salivating over the prospects of expanding the rhythm and sounds of your organ, please note that your organ cannot use such data files.

    It has been a while since I last wrote on this page. Both my wife and myself have been very busy since the arrival of baby Johanna 6 months ago. I nevertheless like to thank everyone who has written to me and offered your kind words about this website.

    It has been a while since I last update my web pages. I have added the One Touch Play - Music Style Select downloadable files under the Alternate Reference Guide page. Keep your e-mails coming please but if you did not receive a reply from me say within a week, please resend. Chances are your e-mail did not find its way into my mailbox. I was having some problems with my Yahoo based e-mail earlier. For those who have signed my guest book, a big thank you for all your feedbacks and kind words. Some of the larger download files have been removed temporarily as I am running out of space. Will place these large files into an alternative location shortly. While you are in here, please participate in my survey below.

    I have been tinkering with my organ sequencer to Standard MIDI file conversion via an external PC for the last 2 weeks. I was prompted to try this out after receiving e-mails from fellow enthusiasts. After a few nights with minimum sleep, I think I have finally figured out how this is done by referencing the write-up by others on the Internet. I have added a brief MIDI conversion write-up with links to the reference material in my Technical Tips page

    I have just created a new page called Mail Bag. It is a compilation of questions posed by both the readers and myself. Please feel free to write to me if you think you can offer an alternative answer to the question posed. Look out also for the occasional mini surveys.
