Re: [Doepfer_a100] Messy Studios...

2008-07-23 by James Husted

I actually use the Mirages all the time. A piano Mirage sound mixed with a Wavestation is the main sound I use. Also Mellotron-like string sounds. Now the Macs are another story. I have some seldom used software on some of them (Max for instance) and lots of old graphics programs

How deep is the cover on a Doepfer suitcase cabinet?
