ot: finding a nord modular G2 in NYC

[thesmallisbeautiful]

Hey, I know this isn't all that live-related, but I want to put it out there.

I am going to NYC from Berlin in January to work on a record with a band there. I will be doing mostly drum machines and synth patching. I would like to use my nordG2, but I don't know if I really want to fly with it. The engineer said that he's having trouble finding a G2 to rent for a reasonable price (although ironically the G1 is everywhere and cheap, odd). I was wondering if anyone here might either know somewhere that would be good to check to rent one, or perhaps know someone with a G2 they don't need for the month who would like to make a few bucks for doing nothing.

It's a legit recording at a real studio http://stratospheresound.com/ not some dude's bedroom, so it will be in a safe environment.

Just asking.

why don't you just buy one on ebay and sell it when you're done with it for the same price? would be a much better use of your money I would think.

Maybe try CraigsList.org and ask on there

actually you might want to consider just sending it by postal. pack it up very very safe with bubbles and foam and a good box and insure the package and then ship it to where you're going. it would be WAY safer than flying with it and way cheaper than renting I would think.
