200e

In my opinion,

you should take the time to try the system and actually spend some time with it.
At that point, most likely , you will realize that specifications and
fact sheets don't mean anything.
It will either work for you, or it won't.
there are plenty of videos online and music everywhere that have been
done with the 200e.
you can get a fair idea of what can be done with it, from bug noises
to entire tonal droney compositions, to weird out of this world random
rhythm sequences....it's really up to the user.


Also, it is my opinion that the last thing that comes to mind while we
are talking of the 200e as a system is the word "constraint".

I highly recommend you find another user willing to let you play with
it, and judge for yourself!

you will most likely agree that these questions you are asking are
superfluous or just a sign of not wanting to commit (and i can
understand that....it took me a while to take the plunge).

Good luck!
