about the TKB.

2003-11-10 by jmaddocks1975

Hi all,
My opinion is it should have BOTH midi and cv/gate, it would be 
crazy to not have midi!
What if you were like most people that use computers, you have a 
really cool melody playing on the TKB and want to save it in your 
sequence (cubase, logik. etc), and I also have times when I like to 
use cv/gate to give me some inspiration and help me do something I 
wouldn't have thought of by using midi.
If we want cv/gate what about sync24? The TKB will have an internal 
clock for the sequencer so a sync24 would be nice.

If you don't like the midi port on the back of the TKB then don't 
use it, ignore it, cover it up...

It has to be touch plate, no arguement there.

There has been so much discussion about this TKB that I've forgotten 
some of the specs that has been suggested, has anyone talked about 
having a polyphonic mode?
If yes, what's the feeling on this?
I know roland did one, and it has to be a good extra, right?


so, what's your thoughts on MY opinion?

Thanks
John
